The weird stuff is starting again!
Those of you who follow know the video light saga, for thos that dont a brief recap.
I carry a few small video lights in my main camera bag , they are mostly used for close up or fill light, hardly ever for video. Anyway back before covid one vanished at a wedding (or at least it was missing after I got home) I searched the house several times, asked my mate whose wedding it was, nothing. Time passed no signs of light.
Several years passed, I searched on a number of occasions for this and other things, the video light remained missing. Not too big a deal, it was a cheapish one to start with and I bought another to replace it.
Fast forward to recently and I buy some new gear, includung a new camera bag. Open the bag one day and theres the missing video light! Now as the bag probably wasnt even made when I lost the light and I'd only bought it a few weeks before theres no way it could have been left there and missed. When the light went missing I didnt have the bag.
That brings us up to today. I take the video light out to shoot the pictures of the orange frlowers I posted earlier. In fact I only used it on the first one and a spider (the spider pic didnt work) so it was off when I came back in.
Now when I put these things down I'm carefull to put them face up so I can see if the light is on (leds can get hot) the light is off, it's been off for about 10 minutes in fact. I take the card out of the camera next to the light which is face up on the sofa next to me.
I take the pics off the card, edit the 2 I posted, take the card back to put it back in the camera and Bloody Hell! The video light is face down and switched on full. Now it's cant have fallen, I havent moved it, nobody else is even here.
I've had what I call poltergiets activity before, I get weird stuff happen, then it stops for a while.
Bloody odd all the same, it really likes this video light.
