Title: Looking at the Heavens Post by: Shin on May 27, 2017, 08:03:24 PM Second day of walking around with the camera. And. . .
I dropped it!!! . . . I remember seeing a plastic part on the ground, a little bit away from me. . . But all it was, was that the battery had popped out, it hadn't broken into fragments. I put it back together again. Everything worked but the focus. I took the lens off and put it on again, then it worked too. It appears all is well. Thanks be to God.

I hurried along. . . and by the time I got outside it was already blowing apart. I couldn't catch it. This is what I was able to afterwards.
