Heya,
i just won me a sony dsc-v1 on ebay!
yes, its old.. but a good one! why this one? it can do "nightshot"-pics, where it removes the internal IR filter for full IR sensitivity. sounds useful?
another nice thing for my laser hobby would be macro photos. ebay has lots of macro-lenses, with different diopters. ranging from +2 to +10 diopter. i know what a diopter is (the inverse of the focal length in meters, so "1" is one meter, "2" is 1/2m, "5" is 1/5m and so on), and i know the, uhm, objective stuff: "Zoom wide (W) 34 mm, Zoom tele (T) 136 mm (4 x)". focal range is "Normal: 40 cm (1.3 ft) - Infinity" "Macro: 10 - 40 cm (3.9 - 15.7 in)". and thats about it, i have no clue what to do with those numbers, or which lens to choose.
i would like to photograph small insects, animals (as moving objects) and diode-dies and the like (as still objects).
any hints and help? you'll get some extra macro pics for that too
