How dumb is that?!

Reverse problem:

I wanted to take a black frame on long exposure to see what my hot pixel situation was like...After a frame or two, discovered that I DIDN'T have the lens cap on...
Genius, eh?

To add insult to injury... my first R-D1 would come up with totally black frames even when the lens cap *wasn't* on.

Where in New Zealand are you?
I'm in Auckland but as it's Auckland Anniversary weekend and a long one, i'm off to Hastings and Napier tomorrow.
I'll be taking my Voigtlander, Mockba, Cambo and lots of film.

send me a PM if you want to catch up.

So I was taking this picture with the 12mm, and click, and the wind lever froze 😕

powered off, on again, did it again, froze again. Now I'm freaking out, as I've just arrived in NZ on a 5 month trip 😱

Then I heard a second click, and the awful truth dawned... I'd left the lens cap on, and was getting 30sec shutter speed :bang:
