As I was doing some very short video clip with the Digital Harinezumi just now, couldn’t resist taking some still photos to kick off a small gallery that I’ll start soon to house all my crappy Digital Harinezumi photos. So far I’ve not really been taking much photos with it because the moment I switch it on … I’ll be tempted to play with the video function instead. Hehehe.
My battery went dead right after the 5 minutes of shooting. Phew. Glad it decided to kick the bucket only after I managed to capture what I wanted. This little camera is one hell of a big battery sucker! I can’t find any rechargable CR2 batteries in stores here but in eBay … there seems to be only some rechargable with unknown brand from China. Guess I’ll have to go do some checking online to see how reliable they are. I don’t want some lousy batteries that might leak easily and kill my precious tiny cam.
The final video might take another week or so to complete because I’ve only maybe 30 seconds of video now. Hahaha! These photos above are straight out of the camera. If you are wondering if I used the firmware ‘cheat’ to switch to black & white mode … the answer is ‘no’. As this cam I have is the newer batch, there is no way (yet) to change it to shoot black & white. So how did these photos turn out looking like black & white images? I’m sure it won’t take you too long to figure it all out.
