Panasonic FZ28 Stuck UV Lens Filter

Had this Panasonic FZ28 camera for a while but don't use it much. I prefer to use the TZ1. Good Bridge camera though overall. When I bought it [second hand] the UV lens filter that was attached is completely stuck. I've never been able to get it off. I have seen a few videos where it shows that if its really really stuck like mine, it literally needs to be cut off. Beings as mine is a UV filter I didn't think it was worth forcibly removing it and risk damaging the lens. I quite like the UV filter, even though it is one of those really cheap ones. It says KOOD UV 46mm on it. But it seems to do its job well, and actually works as a protector for the lens. So I think I'll just leave it in place. But it has been annoying trying to get it off. The thread feels like it is finished, so it doesn't connect.

Vivid Purple Flowers Summer

Some purple flowers shot in vivid mode on the Panasonic Lumix TZ1. Unedited. Well, it's summer here in the UK, but it has been quite dull in general so far. I'm not one for really hot weather so I don't really mind if this years summer stays quite dull. I heard that the UK Government are doing some chemtrail stuff to try and block out the sun, so maybe that has something to do with it. Seems silly though, as that will lead to dimming of the sun, which in turn will lead to an altering of the pan evaporation rates. This then causes droughts, less rain and warmer conditions. In a country like the UK that is wet and windy most of the time anyway! They obviously have a bigger agenda at play here.

I'm not sure what type of flowers these are. Maybe you do?

Maybe they're trying to prove that "climate change" exists and is getting worse. Yawn. Take a look at the history of the weather and climates over the centuries and you will quickly discover that temperatures have been up and down throughout the ages, and its a completely normal occurrence. But the people pushing climate change don't want you to be aware of that.

This climate change fearmongering fraud seems like its more about complete control, making everyone feel guilty about their carbon footprint, dictating what they can eat, own, where / how they can travel, how they can live etc. And being able to tax everyone silly for it. That's where it looks like the "climate change" agenda is heading. It' so in our face that its becoming hard to ignore. Anyway, enough about that. I'm the 5 megapixel TZ1 camera guy.

Been messing around with my old Panasonic TZ1 a bit lately. I do also have a Panasonic FZ28 Bridge camera but don't use it much for taking pictures. I only really use it for recording video footage. It's a good camera but I prefer the TZ1.

The FZ28 is too big to take out much. I can never be bothered with putting it in its carry bag and having to haul it around. I prefer something smaller. I don't have the smartphone all-in-one option so have to carry a phone and a camera separately, which can be annoying sometimes. But yeah, I feel like I want to use the TZ1 quite a lot lately. The urge comes and goes. I love black and white photography, but in summer there's just so much colour around, flowers, greenery, insects etc, that it just has to be colour for me at the moment. Vivid colour. Catch you soon.
