Today I had two meetings in Helsinki, the first at Palace and the second at Biomedicum. I happened to have the LX3 with me so I took a couple of photographs when parking the car. It was nice clear weather, -10 °C.
Late evening we went for a walk with the wife. I used the Polar heart-rate monitor watch once again. I so happened that the walk took exactly the same amount of time as yesterday, 52 minutes.
But today we walked much more slowly, so it was a surprise that the watch reported that more energy was consumed during the walk: 425 kcal instead of 385 kcal. But after thinking about this a bit, the explanation may be self-evident: when taking it a bit more slowly the body is better able to burn fat, thus the result of the exercise is better.

Hi!

Well, for night shooting I'm mainly using aperture priority, although the 8 s max exposure is sometimes too little, them full manual is needed. Manual focusing works great, especially with the new firmware which remembers the current settings, worth trying out definitely.
