I got a battery pack on my 10D. It gives me longer battery life and vertical shutter button. Also, it shows I´m serious about my photographer and not just some rich bitch that can afford to buy a DSLR

I like a bigger camera because I have big hands and it is easier to function and operate. The 350D feels kinda small in my hands, plus a bigger camera I find is easier to keep steady. Plus, when you get some long glass on there it won't seem AS awkward if your camera is a bit bigger and heavier.

[Edited on March 7, 2006 at 3:24 PM. Reason : ^yeah, the 350 is kinda small]

i just called every circuit city in the area and warned them that a guy named Ronny is going to break a canon xt intentionally and try to cash in on the accident protection

I work at Circuit City, dipshit. I asked my manager if there was any way I could exchange the camera I have now towards a better one. I'll say that again... I discussed this with a manager, and found out it cannot be done.


Nice try though.

^And yeah, that 18-55 lens is complete garbage.

I can't hate, it is still the only lens I have simply because I can't afford anything new at the moment. And instead of buying another mediocre lens for a hundred bucks, I'm just going to wait until I can afford something nice.


I need money

the more i look at it

the more i think that is my 50mm

and i love my 50mm

^you should really just drop the mid-level money and get one from a couple years ago
the 1.8 is just as good as the new 1.4 (unless you are willing to spring for the USM)

You have the 50mm compact macro? That is a damn good lens. I was gonna save an extra 150 or so and get the 60mm, just because I heard it is L quality glass and half the cost.

Sure I'll take pics of TWW hotties ladies.

Metricula does live next door to me after all.
However, to avoid being creepy (see:iphotou) I won't ask anyone if I can take pictures of them for TWW.

digital slr = cheaper than buying film, paper, chemicals, and taking the time to develop the film and/or development fees

^

first shot:
interesting that theres such a definite falloff point of the focus on the wallet - nice that its pretty abstract at first glance.

second shot:
seems to feel a bit grey overall? but very cool subject to shoot.

third shot:
i like the soft white reflection on the bowl a lot, but the actual subject doesn't really do anything for me

when i took the shot of the people getting on the bus, the bus driver layed on the horn, then ran out, and got up in my face, very angry...

him: "did you take my picture?!?!"
me: "naw man, you weren't in the shot"
him: "you can't do that! this is the MTA!!"
me: walking away

Why would anyone ask if they can take photos of someone for TWW?

nice man! i'd personally brighten #1 and #3 a touch, and perhaps pull up the blues a touch (they feel a bit on the orange side). the middle one looks great!

if we get suitable time allotments and such (and lots and lots of rules), i'd give it a whirl, but if we've gotta churn somethin out super fast, i may pass, its tough during the workweek sometimes

don't adjust 8mb. adjust a small version and try out what you want to do, then do it to the big version. You can just have a script run adjustments
