Picked up a picture frame cutting guillotine today, old but works fine, pretty accurate and good clean cut.

Will need a slight tidy up and minor tweaks, may have the blades sharpened but they are pretty reasonable as they are.

posted in the G9 thread also, may give some a giggle :)

Today I took the first photo I have done for months, nothing special, just the hour meter on a piece of machinery. Today I learnt that I can not hand hold my camera for a shutter interval of 1.6 secs and get good results. Today I also learned that while useing the articulated screen, I can press the ISO button and it is clearly shown at the bottom of the screen hilited in red. One can then turn the rear knob on top of the camera to adjust ISO. Press it ISO button again and that sets your new ISO value. Nifty aye.:-D Of course you all knew that already. :rolleyes:

No I don't think I did know that. So SO much to learn with this camera :-)

I thought manual was a name for a stick shift. I read the rev counter and the road ahead.

They went crazy about 2-3 years ago. Not sure which way they’ll go with whuflu and also 30,000 low cost homes being built around Drury and Wesley.
