No idea SC . All I remember was he had a home made light deflector thingy attached to the lense. Probably more to with the lense than the camera. He studys bugs and insects so needs to take close ups and as it turns out its good for gold pics. Ill ask him what he uses.

Just talked to him. Apparently the cameras not so important but the lense he uses is a MP-E65mm Macro with a flash. Plus with the light diffuser thingy attatched, which is just some normal white paper bluetacked on each side of the lense.

Congratulations on the pb :Y: thanks for sharing great report.
Great write up Shauno, puts it all into perspective laid out like that. Definitely a lot of digging to recover that many nugs. Well done mate.

Sounds like a great trip Shauno, glad to hear you and you dad are firing on all cylinders and to see the tally count layed out on the table.
Would have liked to drop in this year and share in a golden hunt or two but the Mrs thought the -4 deg forecast on our return trip deserved a different plan. :N:

Well it took two weeks to find my first ever bit and now I have two in two days. Amazed the 4500 picked up the tiny bit as deep as it did.
Both pieces from the same gully 100 metres apart and both bits 5 feet from fresh detector holes. ( not filled in either). Just goes to show it doesnt matter how flogged an area looks it can still be there.
Great fines there Shauno, good post.
Cheers

Another great trip and write up. Thoroughly enjoyed reading it and seeing the photos. A great haul too. Loved the purse with coins. So glad you're dad is going strong. He's amazing!
Best regards to you both. Cheers Andy
