Things change continuously

The Prime Minister of Japan would be elected today and Kishida Cabinet is inaugurated, but in a month general election will held, so it's too short to perform anything, just a pretence and gester at all. Noisy days with loudspeakers will begin soon. Let's give it up as a natural phenomena. I'm at a loss how and where to go as my hobby has come to some one break, English guide training course would be extended more half a year and one of photo school will stopped but another one would be continued till the end of this year. The possibility of my returning to former business cannot be denied next year because one of a stuff is going to resign sooner or later. And how long my situation would continue in future is unknown. Things change involving everything regardless one's preferability.

Hope for epilogue

Light Up color has changed from red to yellow on the Tower of the Sun at Suita and on Tsutenkaku at Tennouji, the inhibits of State of Emergency and the abolition of measures such as prevention of spread are the reason. Though we hope COVID-19 would disappear to end, there is no reliable reason to come out again. The side action of Vaccination is reported as an unfavorable reactions because enough preliminary experimental research and development had not been done. Ordinary vaccinated people were the human experimental targets at all. Probably, another problem would surface one after another in future. Once SARS CoV-2 diminishes gradually, next pandemic will appear one hundred year later, remembering the past Spanish Flu came the same period ago. Try and error will continue for a while.

How long Photo Industry keeps the same?

2 hours drive early in this morning took him from Osaka to Northern Shikoku Takamatsu, so shown on the Google Map. As I mentioned before, it's the first day of the released from mental and substantial restraint by the disaster of SARS CoV-2. So, all the people will come out from the clogged circumstance this fine day as a matter of fact. Consequently, it is inevitable that all the resort would be crowded with families, I wonder if he could come back without suffered from traffic jam? So, as is my manner not to go out in terrible congestion. Though my Smartphone is 7 plus, it works as a camera far better than my exaggerated photo shooting equipment, this cannot be confessed at all, firmly closed secret. The fact that 4 of my photo works in 5 were done by Smart phone proves it! Then it guides me to the conclusion, I cannot find any good reason to go out for photo shooting accompanying with heavy and troublesome equipment at all so far as a smart phone is in my pocket? A rumor is chattering that all the representative camera manufacturers will disappear sooner or later because of mainly prevailing of the hi-performance camera equipped in Smartphone though it is a matter for regret. But, I stay in the field with my desperate efforts. Temporally extended hood set on the original hood takes effect to prevent inconvenient ghost and frare when back lighting condition. This is said especially on old designed lens such as RMC Tokina 400mm/5.6. The hood should be as long as possible and as close as narrower opened angled. Of course the inner surface of the hood should be specially modified to consume any oblique reflecting light source applying anti- flocking cloth. This principle, shutting out any unnecessary noise like light source does not be changed if imaging surfaces might be changed from silver-salt film to digital imaging sensor.

The Universe will be a battlefield?

My son failed to shoot #5 Epsilon last morning at Kimotsuki Kagoshima Prefecture in spite of long journey from Osaka. Later information told the decision to stop launching was done only 19 seconds prior because of some inconvenience not in the Rocket itself but in the software of RADAR equipment on the ground. Remember the past, he also failed that at Tanegashima last time. If we force it even though there is a problem, it will lead to a lot of labor and money loss, so it would be a reasonable decision to cancel. There must have been engineers who were more disappointed than him. It is our earnest wish to work hard on "Rocket Technology" at all. Once we fought in the War for supremacy on land, sea and air, The Outer Space is the next Target as the former PRC leader Deng Xiaoping said, "Those who have the right to control Universe control the world!".

Atmospheric change

The pedestrian nearby my house has increased in number this Saturday afternoon, good climate and lifting up of the State of Emergency are the reason. The distribution economy in our country will return back to normal condition so gradually. Since we have overcome several national difficulties, we are not worried about our future, but it might be adversary affected by the political economy in the neighbor countries in worse condition, the difference of the national systems brings various distresses. As for my photo hoby, very rare Minolta Zoom lens MD Rokkor 100~200/f5.6 was obtained through Yahoo Auction at only 1 yen. It is on the way of delivery arriving today. Though maintenance necessity is declared by the seller, prompt decision price at 7,500 might mean probability to survive like a new after lens cleaning maintenance. Magnifying only double focus length eliminate strange bad habit that is suffered from it for almost of high ratio zoom lenses. It seems that I can get very natural resolution by this zoom without some distorted exaggeration. Anyway double expansion at telephoto area is better advantage than wide angle.

New comer

In addition to the arrival of Autumn Holidays Season, The State of Emergency has been lifted at the end of last month, so all the transportation will be congested this week end. As the Autumn Traffic Safety Campaign is over so not a few driver will do violently. I'll stay at home this week end and do home work. I happened to bid on Yahoo Auction for an unknown Tripod at 100 yen and I got it. I mistook the size as a far smaller one, but it is the same as SLIK Master EV-3. The weight is 2.5 kg and its stoutness is enough for my use, as for surprise, plastic carrying handle is equipped on one of the leg, it's very convenient for actual use. The big difference between them is adjustable length locking system, lever lock system is invited, though there might be some lack of reliability, no vulnerability is observed. Tokina 400 mm and SONY alpha are well supported in good barance. I'm going to use this for the time being.

Lifted today all the regulations!

All the regulations lifted today! I'm sure some people were doing well escaping regulation, most of the good people must have experienced the time of suffering who fulfill tax obligation honestly. All the industry are up today! It would be verified whether or not "The State of Emergency" in Japan was necessary? I just remembered a proverb, "Taizan rang and one mouse!".
