Just Playing With My Marbles Pictures With Light Box

[mmuehlba]

Hi well with the marble in the other topic trying to see what I have / mag light Indian I thought I would put it on Janet's light box I made for her but it did not work so I put on the 360 Indian and others and here are a few that I took and then cropped out the marble , so all I can say is I am getting a lot of fun out of that batch and I have had them a week and still have not enjoyed they all yet I am kinda waiting on the big Onions as the more I look at them I wish they were in better shape but last Saturday I was having so much fun I did get taken away a little . so here is what I did just about all day . Mike

I might make a different one with out the lights as when I turned them on it just did not work but with them off I think it did a good job ,would be better if I did not have to crop them . Mike

Hi Ronnie I am using a Leica V-LUX 1

Went in and read a couple of reviews and then checked it out on ebay. Quite a camera as it has held it's value. It brings on ebay almost the original introduction price. For sure I will be keeping an eye out for one. Ronnie

In my extremely humble opinion, Mike's camera is one of the

finest pieces of photographic equipment in existence.

It should be noted that it's a Leica-tweaked version of Panasonic's Lumix FZ-50.

I'm basing my opinion on my own FZ-30, which is basically

an FZ-50 with a couple less megapixels. I've used it for 99% of my photos here.

All three cameras and their controls are physically identical.

Since info about the Leica might be a little harder to find, I'd suggest that

Ronnie could check out things like reviews or an owner's manual for the FZ-50.

The information would be applicable.

well I have had this a few years / a lot and still have not figured how to get good marble pics with out cropping as there all so big the smallest is 1600 . It works great out side but may be that is because it has so many features I just have not figure them out , I still like my Sony Mavica as it works great on marbles just point and shoot and the size is 640 . I have tried to ask at camera stores to find a camera like that but I think I ask all the wrong questions here are two pics just with the Mavica no light but a ceiling light in the bedroom where the cabinet is .Mike
