Wanted to take a quick image of my Moo frame. Each "business" card is an actual image of mine. The reverse has my name, e-mail address and my flickr and flickr river web addresses.

Got 100 cards for $20, the frame was $30, a little much but I wanted it.

The image was taken at like ISO 800 with a p&s, so that the grain "noise" you see.

im confused, thats a biz card with little pictures on it? i cant tell what size that is.

jupitersolo

They are called "mini" cards, like a stick of gum. Heavy board.

srika

oh ok. i seen those but didnt know where you get em. cool thanks for posting.

Neat frame... I've been using and handing out moo cards for a little over a year. People love 'em. Plus it's great having people log into flickr later and comment on photos of themselves that I took in the streets.

They're advertised through flickr. They have a group for them as well through flickr.

damn I wonder where the P7000 got its design influence from? lol

Mizouse

Yea I thought that too, but I'm sure the design dates back to something we don't know about

Mizouse

:ibsomeone:wink:saysitsnotrealhdrbecauseitsonlytwo exposures:

srika

I think older cameras looked different. I do think the design came primarily from the G11. It's quite different than anything else in Nikon's lineage.

srika

yeah they shoulda had 3 cameras.

jupitersolo

Who cares, it has a function button on the front...

srika

I read that Fn button is kind of a pain. ;p

you see this?

I love the F buttons on my Nikons, one it set for me to change from FF, to 1.5 crop to 5x4, on my D3s



TSA story, seems they realize that push a little too hard. Cooler weather is coming and I will be in my hoodie soon...

TS_eXpeed

I wish I could do 5x4...

srika

if I had a D3s, I'm sure I'd love the Fn button too...

srika

my dad took this shot in the early 70's.. most likely with a Yashica.

jupitersolo

This is a great image with color, comp, focus and exposure.


Too bad Yashica isn't a player now. Sounds like a word for Mortal Kombat,


YAH SHE KA !!!!!!!

srika

thanks bud, I didn't even crop it or do much of anything. I did some color balance but not much (it had yellowed). I brightened it a bit (but that has more to do with scanner settings). This is a scan using a circa late 90's consumer scanner.

srika

I guess I should say thanks on behalf of my dad. LOL

You should see the Westinghouse AP1000 setup being built at the Vogtle plant in Georgia. No physical switches, all computer operated DCS systems.

einsatz

Let's just hope they've got some really good software in those systems :p

SaaBaaDoo

I'm pretty sure they have a few panels for auxilliary systems and emergency shut down.

I would get some cool photos next time I'm in a nuclear power station control room, but they usually don't want that stuff out for the people to see.

einsatz

Which makes no sense. Why would photos of a room with control panels and stuff be a security risk? You probably wouldn't even be able to see what the labels say. Wooo, a room with computer monitors and buttons - can't let the terrorists see that!

srika

the scenery, not as impressed by that just because, if you watch many modern movies, they have had high dynamic range in their scenes for a while now. Not sure how they do it, it may be a mix of some CGI and other processing, or just the extended range of new-generation cameras (like we see similarly on D700, D3, D300, 7D, 5D2, etc).

guy on another board posted his 5D2 video setup...

Mizouse

nice.

einsatz

Nice.. but damn, dude's gotta clean up his room.

JLatimer

Has anyone ever replaced their focusing screen? I can't function with the built-in screen. I would like to switch to a split screen. Before I drop the $$ I want to see if anyone has experience in how they work.

Mizouse

the 1D i bought came with a split screen one.

its pretty simple to replace.

what body do you have?
