It was constructed in 1866 to honour a Limerick entrepreneur, Sir Peter Tait, who began the Tait&#8217;s Clothing Factory in Limerick during the 1850s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When I visited Limerick in 2015 I had fully switched to Mirrorless from DSLR and my main camera was the Sony NEX-7 which I had purchased in 2012 and by the end of 2015 I had switched to the A7RII. Today (27 July 2023) my main camera is the Sony NA7RIV as I decided that it was not worth the that it did not really make sense to upgrade to the A7RV. Hower, I recently obtained a Sony FX-30 which is what I intend to use when I visit Limerick in September.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There was once a famous night club (music venue) known as Baker Place but I believe that it closed in 2011. Back in 2015 I stayed in Pery&#8217;s Hotel and could see the clock from my hotel room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Sony \u03b1 NEX-5 is a digital camera launched on 11 May 2010. It is a mirrorless interchangeable lens camera with the body size of a larger model fairly compact point-and-shoot camera with a larger sensor size (APS-C) comparable to that of some digital single-lens reflex cameras. Its major competitors in the market are the cameras based on the micro 4\/3 standard created by Panasonic and Olympus, and a few low end Canon, Nikon, and even Sony \u03b1 DSLRs. The NEX-5 shoots 14.2 megapixel stills and has a 7 frame\/s continuous shotmode. It has the capability to shoot 1920\u00d71080i at 60 frame\/s in AVCHD or 1440\u00d71080p at 30 frame\/s in MPEG4. The NEX-5 was replaced by the 16 megapixel NEX-5N in August 2011.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-vivid-purple-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-vivid-purple-background-color has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"alignnormal\"><div id=\"metaslider-id-5493\" style=\"width: 100%;\" class=\"ml-slider-3-91-0 metaslider metaslider-flex metaslider-5493 ml-slider ms-theme-default nav-hidden\" role=\"region\" aria-roledescription=\"Slideshow\" aria-label=\"TAIT&#039;S CLOCK AT BAKER PLACE IN LIMERICK [I USED A SONY NEX-5]\">\n    <div id=\"metaslider_container_5493\">\n        <div id=\"metaslider_5493\">\n            <ul class='slides'>\n                <li style=\"display: block; width: 100%;\" class=\"slide-5496 ms-image \" aria-roledescription=\"slide\" aria-label=\"slide-5496\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"http:\/\/localhost:10015\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/TAITS-CLOCK-AT-BAKER-PLACE-IN-LIMERICK-I-USED-A-SONY-NEX-5-220390-scaled-1600x1200.jpg\" height=\"1200\" width=\"1600\" alt=\"TAIT&#039;S CLOCK AT BAKER PLACE IN LIMERICK [I USED A SONY NEX-5] 002\" class=\"slider-5493 slide-5496 lazyload\" title=\"TAIT&#039;S CLOCK\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1600px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1600\/1200;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/localhost:10015\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/TAITS-CLOCK-AT-BAKER-PLACE-IN-LIMERICK-I-USED-A-SONY-NEX-5-220390-scaled-1600x1200.jpg\" height=\"1200\" width=\"1600\" alt=\"TAIT&#039;S CLOCK AT BAKER PLACE IN LIMERICK [I USED A SONY NEX-5] 002\" class=\"slider-5493 slide-5496\" title=\"TAIT&#039;S CLOCK\" \/><\/noscript><div class=\"caption-wrap\"><div class=\"caption\">BAKER PLACE<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n                <li style=\"display: none; width: 100%;\" class=\"slide-5497 ms-image \" aria-roledescription=\"slide\" aria-label=\"slide-5497\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"http:\/\/localhost:10015\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/TAITS-CLOCK-AT-BAKER-PLACE-IN-LIMERICK-I-USED-A-SONY-NEX-5-220391-scaled-1600x1200.jpg\" height=\"1200\" width=\"1600\" alt=\"TAIT&#039;S CLOCK AT BAKER PLACE IN LIMERICK [I USED A SONY NEX-5] 001\" class=\"slider-5493 slide-5497 lazyload\" title=\"SONY DSC\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1600px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1600\/1200;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/localhost:10015\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/TAITS-CLOCK-AT-BAKER-PLACE-IN-LIMERICK-I-USED-A-SONY-NEX-5-220391-scaled-1600x1200.jpg\" height=\"1200\" width=\"1600\" alt=\"TAIT&#039;S CLOCK AT BAKER PLACE IN LIMERICK [I USED A SONY NEX-5] 001\" class=\"slider-5493 slide-5497\" title=\"SONY DSC\" \/><\/noscript><div class=\"caption-wrap\"><div class=\"caption\">SONY DSC<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n            <\/ul>\n        <\/div>\n        \n    <\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tait&#8217;s Clock is a prominent landmark in Limerick City, Ireland.
