Great Britain brief one from the back catalogue - Mill G - with teeny, tiny camera used.(2012)2013

The History

Guyzance mill was constructed in the early 19th century and was a water powered

corn mill. It is grade 2 listed and there has been a mill on the site since 1336.

It is a three storey stone structure on a rectangular plan of 34 feet by 20 feet.

The Visit

I was in the area for a 2 night road trip/break and this was one of the sites I

had earmarked to go check out. The mill is structurally pretty sound and in

fair shape. There is next to nothing left in there but three milling stones do remain.

The Photos.

Well these shots were taken with my newest acquisition - the diminutive Pentax Q.

A camera who's sensor is smaller than a gnats left testicle... I think, phone cameras

aside, this has the smallest sensor of any camera. Given this image quality should

be pretty poor on paper/in theory. I also didn't help myself by not taking a tripod

into the mill with me so was shooting hand held at very high ISO (which

should guarantee noisy images) and hand held - which should result in

not very sharp images as I do not have a very steady hand.

Well without further ado here are the piccies.

cheers m'lovely

one has no concept just how small the Q is until one holds it ... it's quite unbelievable

here's a few pics to give an idea

next to some micro four thirds cameras

and in the palm of someones hand

the last shot is the only one that begins to give you an idea how small it is.

fully featured though with all the modes inc full manual and feels and handles like an slr ..oh and solid metal chasis ... its a beaut
