LANDSCAPE PHOTOGRAPHY - The second test of the new old camera

Greetings, friends.
Yesterday I decided to test a new camera, which is not exactly new. On the last walk, it turned out that there was a problem with the memory card, and not a single photo was saved. I put up a new map, which I had in stock, and yesterday I went with my dog towards the river. First of all, I wanted to go to the lake, which already has thin ice, but there is a swamp around the lake that has not frozen yet, and it would not let me in.
By the way, after a walk, I found that I had specified a small size for the photos in the camera settings.

A gray day, gray trees, and dead grass. But I think it's better than snow all around. I can walk freely everywhere.
Last night, I met with friends from my youth, whom I hadn't seen in 8 years. It was a wonderful yesterday, to be more precise, one of our friends had a birthday, 60 years old, and she gathered us for her anniversary. It was a beautiful evening. The husband of the jubilee, my friend, was upset that there was still thin ice on the reservoirs, and he could not go fishing. And he invited me to go fishing. I want to go fishing too!
When was the last time I went ice fishing? It must have been 10 years ago.

Viburnum is red. The berries are still bitter; they have not become sweet from the frost, because there has not yet been a severe, real frost, and birds do not eat them.

During the week, the water level in the river did not decrease; the island did not appear, well, maybe only by a few centimeters.

Well, it's time to check out ZOOM.
The distance to the object is about 2 km; the distance can be calculated more accurately from the map.

Sony, DSC-HX300, f/5.6, 1/250s, ISO-500, 101mm - ZOOM x23, automatic camera settings.

Sony, DSC-HX300, f/6.3, 1/160s, ISO-800, 215mm - ZOOM x23, automatic camera settings.

The ISO is set high; the illumination is not conducive to good-quality photography. But... In my walks or trips in the mountains, in the desert, I often use a camera as binoculars. Immediately on the ground, you can see a distant object, which does not allow you to make a smartphone with a ZOOM of usually x2.

The river stays, but I went home with the dog.

Friends, thank you for your attention.

I wish all of you good luck!

I will be glad to have your attention to my posts again.
