One of the things that bothered me is when a poster asked what cameras we used in a recent thread, I replied what I use. But I couldn’t say, “the first 6 images you see when you click on the number under my avatar was taken with (X) camera. I could do that before. I can’t even say, “the image of the coconut meringue pie on page one was taken with my Sony RX100VII.” Because the pie image might not be on page one anymore. If someone kept looking on further pages, they might come across a similar pie taken 10 years ago with one of my since sold Nikons. I remember when Edo first got his RX100-VII, he mentioned something like “the first 16 images you see (or something similar) were taken with it.” A rather nice way to evaluate images of a camera one is contemplating buying.

My zooms are back & my CTR shot up from 0 to 62! Yay!

Jeff, congratulations on your successful procedure! I am thrilled for you.

What a great image! I would be proud to have taken it & so sorry for that price. It’s worth more.

Is this a UK thing?

Wow. Now I understand.👍

wim, you really maximized your photo ops in the states. I think I’ve seen some great images you took here in past threads. Have you only been in the U.S. once? You’ve photographed it better than I have.

I know! What in the world would a honeybee want with a flower, anyway?

Is it “Baby Elephant Walk”?

I’ll echo the fact that with macro, you’ll be lucky to get 10-20 out of a hundred shots. Especially insects that move fast. Then of the ones that are sharp, you’ll lose some to bad poses you don’t like. But it’s fun. And exhausting. No telling how many failures I had to get this one. And you see it looks wingless!!

Come to Wichita & I’ll take a picture of YOU for your avatar & give it to you. Kidding….carry on.🤗
