On this page in vain you will search for picture - but
a hint: If you want to know more about the pictures in the homepage, you
only must to click on the corresponding one.
The pictures (most of them original are olour slides) would
be scanned and stored in JPEG-format in a relatively high compressing (40/60/100/150),
this was done for the sake of economizinz of memory-sizes; whoever wants to
wait very long for data-loading?! - At first every picture will come in a
reduced dispersing (~1/5), bevore it will be loaded in better quality.
To take photographs I began in the age of groundschool with
an Agfa-ISO-Rapid (24 x 24 mm), any later I used the camera, which was buyed
from my father in 1937 with his first independent income, a sacond-hand BALDA
COMPUR. In the first time I only used black-and-white-films, which was cheaper
then colour-films at that time.
on the occasion of finishing my technical-school-time I became
my first reflex camera, a second-hand EXAKTA 1000, unfortunately I never own
its. Any years later I buyed a Minolta-XD5 and a Minolta-XD7 (b/w- und colour-slide-films)
and corresponding objektives (50mm 1:1,7 / 45mm 1:1,2 / 28mm 1:2,8 / 100~200mm
1:4,5 / Tele Converter 2x -5). Any time also I ran a little darkroom (b/w,
pictures from colour-slides).
Since autumn 1975 mainly take colour-slides, so my collection
developed to the great numbers of circa 9500 of slides, which also tha all
my books
are registered by computer.
Because easyer handling now I use in
travelling
mainly a very simple ("Gucki-Drucki") OLYMPUS AZ 230 and in
diving
a relativaly cheap NAUTICA BONSNAPP 400, which takes good photos in spite
of fitted flash and nevertheless is suitable till 45m depth.
