Yeah sure, which one's in particular?
In particular the fly one - I wondered what shutter speed.
I’ve always done video but recently bought a hybrid camera (Sony A7iv) and am working on my photography.
Am trying to get the hang of the balance between iso, shutter and aperture . So knowing camera settings / lens choice for Photos added to this thread is good learning

The fly one was taken with a Pentax K5, an old (by modern standards DSLR). Shutter 1/320, ISO 1600 and that was with a Pentax Macro 100mm 'M' lens from around 1980. Annoyingly, as the lens is vintage, the camera cannot preserve the aperture. I believe it was around f11, and as they were the last pictures I took I think that's correct as a quick check shows the aperture one half click off that so it seems likely.

And that Sony looks like a lovely camera!

Brighton. NOT KEMPTOWN!
Having seen this on the news, I wondered - Why can't they just walk to the end of the screen, or travel a short distance for a better shot? Where everyone was standing taking photos had what looked like a Japanese Yen shop, and a block of flats cluttering the view.

Foreground interest. 😲
