Emergency Lenscap for Coolpix 9xx
Emergency Lenscap for Coolpix 9xx

Photograph Information Photographer's Comments
Challenge: Lenscap (Basic Editing III)
Camera: Nikon Coolpix 990
Location: Saugerties, NY, my kitchen table
Date: May 16, 2006
Aperture: f/7.2
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/4 sec
Galleries: Still Life, Science and Technology
Date Uploaded: May 16, 2006

After I lost the lenscap on my Nikon Coolpix 990 a friend told me I could replace it by cutting the bottom out of a Kodak film cannister. It only works with Kodak black cannisters, and sometimes the top part fits better than the bottom.
The picture was taken with available light through two windows. Adjustments included levels, crop, unsharp mask.

The focus is not quite good. It seems to be a little bit off.

uh oh... nice composition and I like your solid background, maybe more focus on canister could help photo, nice work overall, I like it

Great idea!

The focus looks soft and light flat. Great Idea.

Would have been more powerful if you'd shown this on an actual camera, but I imagine you took a shot with that camera... this way the title makes it meet the challenge, which is not *that* bad, but does not produce a high-scoring image either. 5.
