Today, I got down to the beach to try out my new lens.

It's a pleasure to use: camera and lens are quite light to hold and comfortable.

Data: F16, 12 mm (wide angle), ISO 1000 and shutter speed 1/1000 of a second.

I wanted to post this photo since the volleyball nets are still up. I've posted other shots without the nets, and folks always ask what they are. So now you can see.

LUmix lenses can be had for a song. They’re plastic, but if one has a nasty hit, I won’t be out a lot,
