Remote shooting using “IP Webcam” software.
ByGarf 2020-11-032025-08-18

Folks considering remote shooting via smartphone may wish to experiment with Pavel Khlebovich’s “IP Webcam”. Basically it’s an amazingly clever and full-featured app that allows you to control the camera(s) on your smartphone with a remote computer, using standard internet protocols. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pas.webcam I initially got into it because it plays nicely with Zoneminder. Thus any…

United States invades Venezuela
ByGarf 2026-01-032026-01-04

Seems this time it’s Venezuela’s turn to have its infrastructure destroyed and its citizens blown to pieces.

My new old Tamron 90mm macro lens
ByGarf 2023-10-172026-01-20

A few snaps of my new, old Tamron 90mm macro lens c/w matching 2x teleconverter. For top notch macro work, I’ve yet to find anything – certainly not anything affordable, to beat this old thing. With the matching teleconverter, it does genuine 1:1. On a Micro-Tour-Thirds camera, it means the entire width of an unedited…
