I agree. I've tried it a handful of times and didn't care for it and just went back to the eyecup. I guess I'd use it for overhead shots or maybe landscapes, because of the grid overlay, but I really don't see any other advantage to using it.

WTF

I took a 1.5 minute video last night on the 7d and when I got home it wasn't on the card. I hope its some kind of user issue. But, I took other videos prior to that and didn't do anything differently - I looked around online and couldn't find any reports of people having this kind of experience...

srika

flickr question..,

I see that when I post a comment to someone, that they reply, my avatar has been quoted. How is that done?

srika

all you do is [http://www.flickr.com/photos/delobbo/] and it puts the little avatar in - good trick!

do you guys have flicker pro account? should i get it? I mean i use it alot..

TS_eXpeed

jupitersolo

yes..


What do I get with a Pro account?

When you upgrade to a Pro account for just US$24.95 a year (or R$45.90 if you’re in Brazil ) you get all this:

* Unlimited photo uploads (20MB per photo)
* Unlimited video uploads (90 seconds max, 500MB per video)
* The ability to show HD Video
* Unlimited storage
* Unlimited bandwidth
* Archiving of high-resolution original images
* The ability to replace a photo
* Post any of your photos or videos in up to 60 group pools
* Ad-free browsing and sharing
* View count and referrer statistics

Compare that to what you get with a Free Account:

* 100 MB monthly photo upload limit (10MB per photo)
* 2 video uploads each month (90 seconds max, 150MB per video)
* Photostream views limited to the 200 most recent images
* Post any of your photos in up to 10 group pools
* Only smaller (resized) images accessible (though the originals are saved in case you upgrade later)

One thing with the new layout, you get two sizes of medium 500 x ??? and 640 x ???.

I'm pretty use to it now.

Just bought the Pro acct.

I didn't know it was so cheap.

srika

yea its kind of a no-brainer

srika

ok im on the new flickr. i do like they have 640 size.

they could have made it easier to link, as far as posting the URL and IMG tags on forums... I had a greasemonkey script installed that generated the code on the old one and it was cake to copy, I'm guessing that won't work on the new one.

MWalsh9152

ugh, I want to set things on fire when trying to link multiple pictures

srika

yeah this sucks. lol.. I need the greasemonkey scripts back. im sure they will come back, they just need to update them.

Meh, f1.7. Now, if it was a f1.4 I would be in for a group buy...

POTN is a Canon forum.

http://www.fredmiranda.com/ has both, but stay away from the Canon forum, they like cutting themselves with razor blades.

good to see, ive wanted to get an ipad for that.


but i hope eye fi eventually makes their own app for ipad, that would be nice.

srika

from Canon rumors guy -

srika

so I went back to the old flickr lol. its stupid, if you go into image view, it centers the image so now I have to scroll to the right to see the whole pic (for the larger ones) - before, it was justified to the left so it was fine. just stupid, why they would do this. and, regarding the layout, its like they changed their navigation to i-Drive or something..

guys check out my flickr

What are you on about?

I have a question.

Whenever I try to post a picture from flickr to AZ, I click on the picture on flickr, then click the ALL SIZE button to get the Large pic. I grab the photo's URL, then paste it here in AZ, and finally put the IMG brackets for each URL.

Are you guys doing the same thing?

Is there any easier and faster way to do this?? It's a bit of work, if I'm posting more than 6 pictures at the same time..

Thanks guys!

jupitersolo

Either that or I just grab the link set flickr provides. The link that they provide allows the viewer to click on the image and it takes them to your flickr.

srika

srika

well on the 'old' flickr there is a greasemonkey script called allSizes+ that you just hit one click and it automatically copies the URL and IMG bbcode to the clipboard - at whatever size you want - then you just go to your forum post and paste! voila like butter.

here is info about the script along with a screenshot:

Ive been trying to get full moon pics for the past week, but every night Ive tried its either overcast, or raining. Tonight I looked outside about 45 mins after sunset and the sky looked perfect. I headed out with two objectives, first theres a tree on top of a small hill that I want to get a silhouette shot of with the somewhat lit sky behind it....get there to find that the tennis courts directly behind it are lit upm ruining the shot.

Left there and drove to the far end of the lake to get some moon/cloud shots.....no moon whatsoever....wont be visible until a little while from now, and Im too damn tired to go back out FML

I need to check lunar calendars before going out.

srika

On the way home from work today there was a guy (who appeared to be a photog) right out in front of Union Station selling a panoramic shot (looked like a HDR) of the bean and the skyline behind it. It was framed and had to be about 3-4' wide by 1' high. It was a decent looking shot.

Guess how much he was selling it for.

MWalsh9152

$500

srika

$10!!!!!!!!!!

I was like are you f*kin kidding me?????????
