    No Autumn leaves in my garden, Pete. If a fat Woodpigeon and some flowers will do? Or, wee beasties. Steve.

    I hate to admit it, but it's an old Sony Cyber Shot DSC-HX100V. A twelve year old Bridge camera. A pal gave it to me a few months ago, unloved, and unwanted. It does have a Zeiss lens, but the camera tech is very outdated now. I usually set it to Intelligent Auto, and let it do its thing...
