That video has to be a spoof.

nice, I didn't really look too much, I saw another around 900 and another at 1000 but this was the only one I looked at. the box was flawless and EVERYTHING was in it in fact when I went to look at it he had the box packed just as if new.

did you buy camera stuff? if so, what?

Mizouse

I wants a new camera to collect dust.

Actually I just want to get one with a lithium ion battery, the NI-MH battery in my 1D2N sux cause they always self discharge so if I want to shoot I have to remember to charge the night before.

yeah, cheapest Ive ever seen is $900, and with unknown origins. No camera stuff has been purchased by me in a long time. I've been lacking the motivation lately, been busy spending money on my new project Bronco, and just booked a trip to Disney for the end of January. However, I am going to use that as an excuse to buy some ND filters, and maybe upgrade my Sigma 24-60 to a Canon 17-55. I think I'm going to pick up a used 70-200 F2.8 for the trip then offload it when I get home.

as soon as I posted that I started waiting for your response. I'll give you $300 since it has those HUGE gashes in the lens

Mizouse

I wouldn't call them huge.

And they don't even show up in any images.

MWalsh9152

lol, I know....just had to start the negotiations off by being overly dramatic about them though!

This is pretty sweet... click the slideshow on the left...

"THE images simmering in the French photographer Cédric Delsaux’s “Dark Lens” series are an unsettling confluence of hyper-real cityscapes, a post-postmodern sense of humor ... and characters from “Star Wars.” "

^^ a couple years old. still cool tho.

fun stuff, a friend sent me this, appears to be a fridge magnet. I have no idea who that company is and surely was never contacted about anything. (that is my flower picture). anyways.

Mizouse

Pic of original?

srika

what, you don't believe me?

Mizouse

Nope

Mizouse

just wanted to see what the original looked like, like if they cropped out stuff

srika

damn.

Mizouse

I see so they flipped it

wndrlst

Damn Rubin...you just get ripped off all over.

jupitersolo

Oh, That's a clear cut case, for pay me or I'll sue you. And sue her and the company.

srika

thanks for the input, I guess that's what you get for throwing so many pictures online. even at small size! I uploaded this only at 720px. I am planning to contact them and figure something out.

MWalsh9152

Rubin, you had a Canon S95 right? How did you like it?

srika

funny how the magnet says "contact us for a free quote". oh I'll contact you, and I'll give YOU a 'free' quote.

Marc I did have a S95, I loved it. great little cam, great for regular everyday purposes.

Mizouse

Yea I still want to get a S95/100 camera since I don't use my DSLR as much. That and a NEX-7

Really wish I had a camera that could hold a charge. About 2 weeks ago it was very windy and it cleared out everything in the sky, had some great views of San Francisco. But my camera was dead and i had work all day

And I still need some legs for my ball head too

MWalsh9152

cool, is that what you took to or was that the GF1? I need to get the fiancee something for xmas/upcoming vacation, and something I can use myself when I dont feel like carrying my gear around during the day on the trip.

srika

at

I took the GF1

srika

so wild to watch this kind of stuff

srika

(oh btw, I didn't have the S95 at the time - if I did, I would have taken it also)

is300eater

that Nikon doesn't have live view? I would've just activated live view and held it up high

MWalsh9152

did you replace the 95 with a 100?

srika

guess I'll go the first route, and hope they will pay me something.

I happen to work at a large (Top 100 in the US) law firm and the primary IP department happens to be right down the hall from me and I happen to be buds with many in the department. So I just talked to one of the senior IP partners about this and he said suing the company would go into the 1000's just for legal fees and given that it appears to be a small business, that would not be economical for either of us. He suggested I go a 'cease and desist' route just to get them to stop using the image. I told him how I would like to get some kind of monetary compensation for this, and he suggested to contact them and ask for a reasonable value for them using my image. So I am gonna go that route and see what happens. I think I'll have to come at it at the right angle, so I can maximize the chances of hearing back from them. I think there's a good chance they will ignore me. Anyways,

srika

no. I may do it next year.

Mizouse

So you gonna get the S100 or wait for the S105?

srika

I don't know. I kind of hope another pocket P&S camera comes out next year that is like f/1.4 and similar quality and concept as the S100. That would be really nice.

is300eater

can someone please tell me how to the Lightroom 3's dpi to 300?

is300eater

never mind

srika

cool bag - a little suitcase (for clothes) and camera bag in one. the camera portion is a separate shoulder bag that can be removed.

jupitersolo

I had a x200 for a little while, just didn't like it. The handle drove me crazy. Sold it on fm.com. I should have bought a ThinkTank roller.

srika

that x200 looks like a beast. this one is much smaller.
