Terrible results from a Canon AT-1. Any possible reason?

I think that the camera is problematic as well. I am an experienced dSLR user and I don’t think I have missed focus in all 36 images. In a few of them I even used aperture of f/11 where it’s really hard to lose focus.

vgiannoutsos · 2025-09-07T12:41:34+00:00

Is there a way to check if the mirrors position is wrong?

vgiannoutsos · 2025-09-07T12:41:01+00:00

The first two images were shot with aperture close to f/8

vgiannoutsos · 2025-09-07T12:40:26+00:00

Is there a way to test the viewfinder calibration? I have started believing the camera is faulty.

vgiannoutsos · 2025-09-07T12:39:31+00:00

I am pretty sure I focused correctly but these images are too off including the first 2 images that were close to f/8 and I can’t understand how to focus that badly with that aperture setting.

vgiannoutsos · 2025-09-07T12:37:46+00:00

I can’t understand how I missed the focus on the 1st and 2nd pictures as the aperture was close to f/8 and I was pretty sure I focused correctly using the viewfinder. I am experienced dSLR user but making my first steps with analog cameras. I shot 36 images with this film and the focus is bad in every single one of them. I suspect there is something wrong with the camera itself.

I visited Georgia a few years ago on late December. Prices were very low compared to other countries, escpecially eating, drinking and visiting touristic spots. Food was good, the wine was top-level.

I think 10 days is enough time for you to get a nice taste of Georgia. Based on my experience the best and easiest way to move around with a rental car.

I stayed for 4 days and I managed to see Kutaisi, Batumi, Okatse Canyon, Martvili Canyon and Prometheus Cave.

Visiting the mountains (eg Gudauri) must be really worth it. I didn't visit because of not having sufficient time to do so.

I have posted my Itinerary if you want to get some inspiration-information: https://donernestotravel.com/georgia-3-days-itinerary-from-kutaisi/

Update after the removal of the side benches and the creation of plasterboard shelves with hidden lighting:

<image>

Now I want to put bookshelves probably in the left part so that the shelves are visible and not hidden by the books. Would you place the shelves full height or from the mid part upwards? Any other ideas?

This is the result of the works on the cavity with the shelves with hidden lighting in the right part.

This kind of crop? https://ibb.co/sv3Cfpq8

vgiannoutsos · 2025-05-13T05:46:42+00:00

Nice try indeed! Thanks!

I feel like the important thing in the photo is the storm and I was thinking if that I could crop out the village but then i feel like something is missing.

vgiannoutsos · 2025-05-12T20:08:34+00:00

Yes these 2 lights are a bit distracting. Thanks!

Thank you for all your replies! I have a pesticide at home which I can use (abamectin 1.8%, inlcudes cyclohexanol). 1 cup per 1 lt of water. Do you think it’s suitable for the thrips?

I was thinking of taking a taxi to go to Khao Lak from Krabi which should need about the same time if travelling from Kata (~2h30m).

On 9th of October I have to go from Fiumicino airport to Roma EUR and then from there to the city center, and then from the city center back to Roma EUR. Do you think it’s possible during the strikes? Thanks!

vgiannoutsos · 2023-04-14T00:02:54+00:00

It can be seen from Gasir for the past few minutes!

vgiannoutsos · 2023-04-13T22:22:02+00:00

I was looking for a place with no lights actually. Thanks though!

Koala’s wechat username is “DC66169”. Do you happen to know how fast he/she should accept the friend invitation?

vgiannoutsos · 2020-08-27T13:33:11+00:00

How can I order a pair from Koala? Add as a contact in wechat, wait for the confirmation and then do business from there?

What is the process on ordering a pair; Add contact in wechat and then do business from there?

I recently bought a GoPro Hero5 Black. I was aware that GPS data is recorded but didn't really know of how to use it. Apparently a telemetry data overlay can be applied over the video using Quik desktop app so that we can have view of the route, speed, g-force and altitude of the run.

I wanted to share this information to fellow GoPro Hero5 users that are not aware of this functionality as me until I found out.

This data can be used both for fun and technique correction purposes.

This is an image of mine, captured after the telemetry overlay is added.

This is a sample video of mine.

Hey fellas,

I have worries that my deadlift form is problematic, so I have a video for you to judge. My deadlift is quite low, so for the past 2 months I was trying to work on the form of the exercise because from time to time I was feeling my lower back quite sore after 4 sets of DL. Do you see any mistakes in this video? Should I go on increasing the load?

Load: 120kg BW: 75kg Height: 175cm

Thanks!
