Charging...

Preparations for tomorrow's photography session. Got those high capasity (around 2500mAh) Eneloops (as seen in the the top of picture) recently. Should have about 25% higher capasity than regular Eneloops. However, they can be only charged around 500 times (compared to 1500 with older Eneloops).

I am switching little by little to low self-discharge NiMh AA batteries. More convenient to use as you don't need to constantly recharge them.

Nikon 1 J1 & Digiexpo

Nikon J1 with 10-30mm from Digiexpo. I have mixed opinions about Digiexpo. This year it felt to be even more filled with people. Lots of companies not represented there at all but in the other hand some good discounts, interesting guest speakers and possibility to see & test new toys.

Quickly checked the Nikon 1 J1 & V1 cameras. Not sure if they are suitable for what I need from cameras, but would like to test one with more time to get proper opinion about them. Pink lenses for this system might become collector items :)

Stala & So.

Promo photos & EP cover photos for Stala & So. band. Setup: Pro-7B with 3x4' softbox camera right. Taken about 2 stops from maximum power to allow overpowering partially the ambient and give almost instant recycle times. Which helps when taking group photos. You don't want to miss moments of good expressions.
