dreggory posted:"This was frame 39 on a 36-exposure roll of film. Digital doesn't even go to frame 39 or even the 37th frame; when you fill your card or your buffer, you're bonked. Worse, with digital, you pay for a 4GB card, but it only holds 3.8GB. What's up with that?" What a loving idiot. If he really believes this poo poo he is insane.

Interrupting Moss posted:To continue the "Photo stores around me are awful" saga, I called a different store and asked the owner "Do you have a 52mm-77mm step up ring?" His response: "Oh you'll have to have 52mm special made, 55mm is the standard." Yesterday I went to a store that I just found out about. They wanted $186 for a fairly OLD & USED Vivitar 283 flash and then argued with me about it being safe to use on my 50D. Depending on when the flash was made they can have a trigger voltage of 9V to 600V!

Cross_ posted:That seems a bit high, 1990 Vivitars supposedly have up to 300V trigger (continuous) voltage. From what I read it depends on where and when they were made.

RangerScum posted:I think it's hilarious how a strong majority of people who bitch about HDR photos don't even know the correct terminology for things and in turn look like fools. I try and post corrections every once in a while... this is literally the ONLY part of photography that turns me into a cranky old man when people get it wrong. Yes - I am a fool. Whatever the gently caress you want to call it. I still think the photos everyone posts and calls HDR look like poo poo.

RangerScum posted:I'm just saying you of all people might want to call it the right thing since a lot of your B&W landscapes are HDR. You remind me of the blind black KKK leader from the Chapelle Show. It's pretty simple guys. I am calling the lovely photos that people call HDR exactly what they are - poo poo. I think there is a pretty big difference between those photos and my landscapes. I also think that I have a pretty good idea of what dynamic range is based on those photos. Yes - me thinking lovely HDR photos are poo poo is exactly like a black man being the leader of the KKK.

dakana posted:My suspicion is that, as we speak, governors of around 28 middle American states are considering mass secession into the new Confederate States of America. If this happens, it won't be like the civil war These states have the real power today, the energy resources, the workforce and constitutional attitude, the military might and the will to remove big government and public unions and corruption from their lives. If this should happen, the seceding states will become what America once was - a global superpower, while the remaining liberal states will sink into the Socialist/Marxist status Europe is headed for. Wow. So what's a good alternative to Alienbees?

Drive somewhere new and take a short walk. Try going somewhere out of your comfort zone. Sometimes I just drive until something catches my eye. Make sure you take pen and paper so you can write down locations that you find interesting but cannot shoot at that time. Everything that brad listed.

Cuban Polaroid.Make posted:It was a wooden box with the bellows and lens from a folding camera mounted at one end with a complete darkroom inside. Using photographic printing paper the photographer would expose a sheet of paper for the negative, develop, stop, and fix it inside the camera, then put a copy stand on the camera and photograph the negative (to obtain a positive), develop, stop, and fix, then wash the final print in a coffee can of water attached to his homemade tripod.

I read a blog once where they did all kinds of things to CF cards and they had a pretty hard time making them not work. They froze them, put them in beer, water, washer and dryer, ran over them with a car, baked them in the oven, etc. They were able to get the data off the cards in every instance.
