The Coffee House

So go out today for the whole day, battery all fully charged and go for a nice walk. Take X-T20 out of bag switch on, and nothing then try it again and what a plonker I am. I left the fully charged battery on top of my desk ooops, had a good walk though haha.
I've never done that....lol
 
Everyone complains about the mirrorless battery life but I have not found that to be a big issue. I do keep one of my Fuji batteries fully charged in my bag. The other Fuji and 2 Wasabi's I rotate into the charger as needed but leaving the one in the bag I can avoid running into the situation that Fujidave found himself in. I also keep an extra SD card in my bag that I do not use unless I am 100% stuck. I don't normally even take the SD cards out of my camera. Lately, I transfer wirelessly when I'm done and then reformat in camera...

Last years airshow I cleared over 1,500 photos and X-T20 was set to Raw/Jpeg. That was just one battery and still had enough left on.
 
Sometimes the battery in the K1000 runs out, but I keep my Sunny 16 skills in my bag as a backup. ;)
 
Day 2 of the Jesus headache.
 
My way of taking a shot with either of my Fuji X cameras is, before the camera is to my eye It`s switched on, and before it`s back to my side it`s switched off :)
 
Question, what is the orange supporting member thingy on some members ?

LOL. I can remember with clarity things from 30, 40 or even more years ago, my problem is remembering 30 mins ago.

Maybe that's why I relate to Dr. Seuss

It means they have chosen to contribute an annual fee ($25, iirc) to the forum. In exchange, you would get access to the subscribers' forums plus some other stuff that I can't remember. I'll hunt down the link for you.

Edit: Can't find it easily on my phone, but sonewhere there is more info about becoming a subscriber. If you or someone else can't track it down by later tonight, I'll give it a go when I am in front of a larger screen/keyboard.

Just found it in my profile, funny really as I am a member of two other photo forums but this one here is really to my liking, so much so that I think I will have the yearly one. Just going to have a read about it now that I found it.
 
Miss Maggie did well in class. We’re at Lazy Dog for lunch. Dunno if Lazy Dog is a national chain, but they cater to our canine friends. They’re welcomed in the patio, brought water and provided a doggie selection of foods.

My favorite joke on the sugar/milk theme . . .
Two men are sitting in the living room after dinner while their wives are preparing drinks in the kitchen.
Joe says, " We ate in a great Spanish restaurant last night."
Bill: "What was the name of it?"
Joe: " I don't remember. Wait, what the name of that flower with the nice smell and thorns?"
Bill: "Rose?"
Joe: " Yeah, that's it." Then he yells toward the kitchen, "Rose! What was the name of that restaurant we ate at last night?"
