Not the best quality, but here is a pic taken from a drone i have just got. It's a hubsan zino pro plus, notice the Humber bridge on the left.

Actually it's not bad really, it's a 4k cam, might not be the best but you need to spend hundreds for a really good drone, then it has to be registered in the UK. This will do me for some ok aerial shots.

Battery lasts 35 min, and i have two, it has a 800m ceiling too

That's the point, actually private drones are turning pretty much are useless, as more and more no fly zones are introduced and more restrictions will be introduced. The camera shoots are worse that taken with an old phone also. Considering price, it is ain't worth it. You will be more thrilled to attach a small gopro like camera to a cat or dog.

I'm just going to block you for your really kind of nasty comment ok.

No sure what's so nasty in there? Government taking action? I repair DJI drones, they get boring after few times you use it are very limited in terms what can you do with it artistically and now even all fun stuff you could do is pretty much banned. You cannot fly near any infrastructure, pretty much anywhere in the city or you can get a fine, in some countries you get your drone confiscated, let it be electricity lines, train whatever, it gets stricter with each year due to some dumbarses doing ridiculous stuff, making news headlines with those cheap China drones. That leaves you what? Forests and trees, yet another forest and trees? I'll pass on those. If you are a pro with permit you don't do it for fun but for work, that's a different cause.

Now on serious matter. I've been reworking my Kiev-60 TTL prism. I've retrofitted a ESP32-S2 with digital lightmeter and Cds photorestor(for redundancy), well it even has a web server, AP mode, but that's not the point. It took me few weeks to catch up my rusty coding skills. It was like sheer luck, like they wanted in the early 80ties to fit a screen there, there surfaces are in the right places to be visible through viewfinder.

Mates, are there any Kiev-60 or Kiev-6C users, anyone willing to sell something for parts? Any Ukrainian mates, UK also got a tremendous amount of half broken(finished) Kiev-60s during early 90ties for peanuts. Also looking for Pentacon 6 mount glass. Hit me up, if you have something. Ebay has become a pretty stupid place buying gear, the prices are inadequate, especially for a soviet made gear, mostly on monday with shaky hands... mine was for sure, barely any drill hole is aligned and the right place, but in the end you can fix it and make usable. Entry to medium format is a rather expensive affair.

Dunno if we can link store, try maybe kamerastore, a finnish shop with 2nd hand stuff.
It's where my lastest lense came from.
Don't know if the prices are correct for what you're looking for.

Even using x3 tube extender ... the DOF is no more than 1 or 2 mm, but you're sure to get at least some in focus

It's easy to love good macro shots.
Some crystals from me, phone macro lenses f/2.5, default ISO and the rest. Unedited.

Ice on moss?

There should be much, much more of that ice.

This one was pressed, so it lost the most of it.

Edit: Not sure, but it might be using the depth sensor f/2.4 as well (macro 5MP, depth 2MP), was lazy to clean the lenses, also, it's hell to get steady focus on a such uneven surface.

Those are trichomes on cannabis flowers. Don't ask how I know that. :pimp:

Ah yes, the forbidden flapjack

I should take pics of the new years fireworks around me, but I am not sure if I am sober enough to figure out the exposure...

It's been a while for me. Shit weather and shit location. But ironically, here's a picture of my new tripod. I've perhaps doctored it using Canva.

It's an Edelkrone StandONE. Cool little thing. I've put a cheapo ball head from an old £30 tripod on top. Then it came alive and started a fight on the sofa.

Helo nice people, many time have passed since my last post.

Here some random shots during a sunday walk.

Softball game viewed from avenue outside of the field.

Cayman nest in a canal where rainwater flows.

Hawk nests in various cell towers.

Hope to enjoy them.
