52 Week Challenge - week 19 Photographer's Choice: try something new
Found a camera in some of my husband's stuff not long ago. I finally charged up the battery and now I'm trying to figure out how to use it. You can see some of the results. I think it's back to the drawing board.
@shutterbug49 Thanks Debbie. I on a learning curve and am way to the left on that curve! I thought this camera might be a good small camera to put in a pocket or purse and might be an alternative to the cell phone camera. Not so sure. But I have a lot to read and digest to figure it all out. Supposedly it has manual focus but I never figured out how to do that as is evidenced by the terrible photos. @wakelys Thanks Sue. I may abort it if the results don't improve.
Although they aren’t as sharp as your other photos, I love that you have made lemonade out of them with this terrific collage. They actually make a great collage because they aren’t in focus.

I agree with you on using the viewfinder. I never use the screen, I don't trust what I'm seeing, for some or other reason. It also seems to me too much like using a phone camera.

( I was on the field border. The part the farmer also use for his equipment.)
Thanks for the nice comments on this collage and the encouragement. I think some of the blur comes from the fact that I have to look at the screen and push the shutter button at the same time. I like looking through the eye piece to frame a photo. I think the bones of the face give some stability.
