The advantage of power wind and carrying a camera ready to use is
shown here. The picture was taken with a Canon T70 and 70/210
Tamron zoom in Palma Nova - Majorca. The high light level
meant fast shutter speeds and small apertures. That SHOULD mean
sharp results.
The camera motor was capable of 2 frames a second, and the added
advantage of a motor is that the camera can be kept to the eye
between shots.
If I am carrying a camera, it is ALWAYS switched on and ready to
use. In this case set to program - a setting very likely to get
a good result regardless of what purists might say.
I noticed the couple walking out to the boat in shallow water and
thought there might be a shot. You can see what happened. The
motor allowed 3 frames to be taken of the `incident`, of which
this is the best.
I once had a confrontation in a camera club when I said that a
camera should never be in it`s case when out and about. One
old gent said I had no respect for my equipment and that it was
easily damaged if not protected. I retorted that the camera was
only a tool - a bricklayer doesn`t keep his trowel in a soft
bag in his pocket.
The old gent walked out. Everyone to their own opinion !
