Iphone SE (1st generation) 39.00 dollars test.

Posted on 9 April 2025 by unconventionaltravel.com

I’ve been buying cheap iPhones lately and testing them. Currently the collection is the iPhone 8, iPhone 12 mini and now the iPhone se (1st generation). So far i think the iPhone 8 has the best camera.

I really like the design of the iPhone se (1st generation). The phone is really high quality. Plus a new battery only cost 10 dollars and the screen is not glued down. Say what! I consider this phone my Leica.

I’m still experimenting with the camera and I’m sure it can deliver better pictures than these.

It looks like it has some quirks that might just be fun to shoot with. The phone is smaller and lighter than the iPhone 12 mini.

The fact that the camera malfunctions and does weird stuff makes me like it more.

Shot with the Nikon D700 and 70-210mm today.

Posted on 3 April 2025 by unconventionaltravel.com

Yesterday I was in butterfly heaven and I had a short lens. The butterflies were everywhere. But they were very shy when I tried to get close. Went back today with a longer lens, but the wind was too strong. The butterflies were hunkered down. But got one good shot.

The Nikon 70-210mm f/4-5.6 is not a bad lens. They are cheap these days. I think I paid like 49.00 dollars for it. No stabilization, so I shoot at 1/200 minimum shutter speed.
