Over the weekend, I tried using the phone more than my little Sony WX9 for stills and videos, and it worked fine. I'll have to read the 266-page manual and see what else it can do.



I have the S23 and there is no manual for this thing.

Walmart is doing well. It has something to do with their logo.

Perhaps they have a valid reason, such as West Texans do. We don't want more people - not because we're unfriendly or clannish (OK, we might be a little clannish) but because we do not have the one resource that is crucial for all life - water.


Yup! Moved to Texas from Illinois 12 years ago and I always have the draught and yet when it rains it flooded.

Shooting with 2 formats, Full Frame (FF) and Micro43 (M43) it's OBVIOUS Depth of Fields (DOF) are not equal for the same focal length.

FYI - When I am shooting, i don't do math, I just look thru the viewfinder and I use DoF preview to assess the DOF.

But I was curious if there was a relation, something like the crop factor. But for DoF instead of for field of view. Various u-tube tutorials describe it differently. Some seem to contradict one another. One person said divide by the crop factor but that seems wrong. One of the u-tube videos said with the same framing you get the same field of view. But that's difficult to access because the aspect ratios are different.

So I used my iPhone Application, Simple DoF and did a few comparisons.
Summary below, the columns are:

F-stop focal length focus distance DOF_calculation in feet and inches.
(Apologies to the metric people)

Full Frame
F5.6 50mm 5' 1' 0.13"

M43
F5.6 50mm 5' 0' 6.02"
F5.6 35mm 5' 1' 0.51"
F5.6 25mm 5' 2' 1.48"

So it looks like 35mm gives a pretty close DOF to FF. That's interesting because 35mm is
approximately what you get dividing by the square root of the crop factor.

Let's try it with F4
FF
F4 50mm 5' 0' 8.53"
F8 50mm 5' 1' 5.33"
F16 50mm 5' 3' 0.93"

M43
F4 35mm 5' 0' 8.80"
F8 35mm 5' 1' 5.88"
F16 35mm 5' 3' 2.26"

Again M43 @ 35mm focal length is close to FF @ 50mm focal length.

Let's try it with FF@100mm and M43@71mm

5' Focal distance
FF M43
100mm 71mm
F4 2.05" 2.08"
F8 4.11" 4.16"
F16 8.24" 8.34"

15' Focal Distance
FF M43
100mm 71mm
F4 1' 7.37" 1' 7.34"
F8 3' 3.09" 3' 3.02"
F16 6' 9.01" 6' 8.36"

There is probably some mathematical explanation for this, maybe someone here with optics knowledge can explain it. Or is it just a coincidence?

The DOF of the FF divided by the crop factor is correct. The formula is different only for the size of the circle of confusion which is taken to be about 1/1500 the diagonal of the format size.

I bet you can plug your phone into the port and stream music from Pandora or Spotify or Amazon. I could in my 2013 GMC pickup.


I have problem getting audio from the Iphone and Samsung Galaxy to the radio via the USB port.

Sony has the RX-1 which I think a very nice camera. I can't afford it though.

Is there any proof that ukuleles are not alien devices for which we do not understand the sinister purpose?

For that matter, how do YOU know that I am not an alien trying to redirect you to Jerry to hide my alieninity?

I neither confirm nor deny.


I am sure Jerry is not an alien but I am not sure about you though.

Due to the popularity of the Godox, Younguo flashes I can buy a few of the Nikon SB-800 which is TTL compatible to almost all Nikon cameras. It supports TTL, D-TTL and i-TTL and Nikon CLS. It also has the AA mode which provide automatic flash exposure with any camera. This feature is missing on the newer flashes like the Godox.
Thank you.

There is a small attachment that you can get to allow you to use an old flash with high voltage safely on your digital camera. I got one it have not had any trouble with any old flash both on the camera or m old studio lights.


I know those attachments. I have enough flashes that I can simply not using the ones that can damage my camera. Those adapters cost more than the flashes are worth. I can build them too but I just don't bother.

Remember…..Google is your friend. You type in “USER MANUAL….(item name and number). You have several choices. All of them for free. Download the manual to your cellphone. It doesn’t take up space and you always have it on hand.


I this case Mr. Googe gave very few choices.

If you return an item that you paid interest on, you certainly should receive the interest.

Even municipalities require an accurate balance sheet.

first I am not sure if he still can return it because when he received the bill it's almost a month after the purchase. Second I don't know but I think he has the loan for the month so he should have to pay for the interest.

I was talking about Cabot Cove, Maine in the TV Series Murder she wrote. The set is actually in Mendochino, California.
