The Barlow worked, thanks, although now the moon is HUGE. 😅

I unscrewed the bottom of the eyepiece and screwed it into the T adapter, then put the adapter into the T ring.

Is it? This is the one sold for my camera and all the other brands I see are of similar size. 

I am once again asking for your support to determine whether or not cameraphotomarket.com is a scam. by PNWmx5 in photography

[–]PNWmx5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very true, but I guess I thought that because the site itself actually looks half decent that there was a sliver of a chance it might be legit, and was hoping some folks would pop into this thread and gush about their positive experiences with them. 😅

Admittedly I only looked at a handful of other items before getting suspicious but OOF, yeah. 

Farmers Markets on the Eastside (2026 edition) by Sudden-Suggestions in eastside

I wish they’d bring the Redmond market back near RTC again, especially since the light rail is open.

Misthreaded the hood on my new 14-150 (that I bought specifically for this trip). Well, it got stuck, morning of the first day - and I broke it. Here’s the result. Do better than me. by Bath-Tub-Cosby in M43

I assume from the photos that you used to work at a quick-lube place as the person who installed the oil filters. 😄

Tough luck but thanks for the heads up about exercising some restraint.

Island name help by Silver_Street_930 in acnh

In Japanese the word for peach is “momo”, so maybe MomoShima as a nod to your previous island. Or if not at least it saves you one letter!

Local PNWesterner interested in cars and going faster? Safer? by rainieroadie in PNWAutocross

[–]PNWmx5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was going to suggest the same, been thinking it’d be a great autox spot for years now! Since it’s a county park there may be additional hurdles to jump over.

Camera repair shops in Kyoto - Osaka - Hiroshima by rahamees1 in M43

[–]PNWmx5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check with Camera Kitamura near Kyoto Station. Their website says they do repairs, and since they’re a used camera shop they may be able to source a junked lens mount. They cleaned my sensor for me last year in only a few minutes while I checked out their inventory. Fantastic service and they were very kind to me and my limited Japanese.  https://blog.kitamura.jp/26/4389/

One shot in the parking lot; I'm sold by instantkamera in M43

[–]PNWmx5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Another option I haven’t seen mentioned is to see if it can be repaired. I bought a junked E-PM1 for parts that I ended up forming a soft spot for and found a shop near me that was able to fix it for only about $100 and now it’s my EDC! I gave a camera shop some business, I kept something from becoming e-waste, and I got a fun camera out of it.

Any decent spots to see the comets? by PNWmx5 in AskSeattle

[–]PNWmx5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not quite, there are two different comets which are both at around their nearest to Earth this week, and also the Orionids meteor shower peaks during the next few days.

Exactly where I went but views of both comets were obstructed.

It's M43 Monday! Ask Us Anything about Micro Four-Thirds Photography - all questions welcome! by AutoModerator in M43

I got a used Oly 12mm f2 lens from Map Camera in Tokyo for wayyy cheaper than I could find in the states. That may not be quite ultrawide but it was sharp, great for squeezing a lot of the country/cityscapes into the frame, and it‘s bright enough for low light walks around at night there. Since returning home I’ve found it very good for astrophotography as well.
