3rd February 2009

Doesn`t time fly by, when you are busy !.... Yesterday we had the first snow of winter, here in the U.K. It was the worst snowfall for 18 years, and the transport system just collapsed... London`s airports were closed, and the tube trains couldn`t run, and the London Red Buses were kept in their garages for safety reasons.... It was a very quiet day in London !... people just could not get to work.

Here, Near Portsmouth, we did not get it so bad, we only had about 2 inches (50 mm) but it was enough to make our road treachorous to drive on, as we live.

I have found some settings to make the FZ28 more responsive to quick focus and "instant" shooting.... well , almost,.... I have posted them on the flickr group page "the Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FZ28 Digital Camera group icon

Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FZ28 Digital Camera

under a post titled "Firmware Version(speed of focus) If you scroll down the page, you will see several posts with my car as avatar. The settings are near the bottom...

So, having set my camera on the C1, setting on the dial, Went out to take some snow photos, which you see on here now..... at first it wasn`t too promising, but the further north we went, eventually we hit a Blizzard, that was also moving north, so we did a circle round and came back towards home (south) and withing 15 minutes was driving on clear roads, with blue skies, brilliant sunshine and fluffy white clouds.... ! Such is the weather here in the U.K. !!
