The *Official Photography Thread*

oh man... sux you had to go through all that Jake...

i have toned down my buying online lately... i found a great sales rep in the Pro Dept at Samys up here in Pasadena who price matches very closely to B&H for me so i don't have to wait for shipping or deal with too many issues...

hope it works itself out...

 

Yeah still waiting to hear back. So irritated.

 

Sucks Jake. Hopefully, you get your camera back soon.

I hit the Samy's in Santa Barbara. Fine store. Great service and like Mike says, they price match. I mostly buy online from B&H or Adorama. Both companies offer great customer service and their prices are fair. If you need help from either, it's readily available.

Again, good luck and sorry to hear you have to go through this.

 

I couldn't find it on their FB, they must have deleted it. That blows

x2 I started using my local shop to make my bigger purchases

x2 on B&H

 

i enjoy shooting film with my little k1000 whenever i get a chance. im by no means a good photographer seeing as i dont have a light meter to tell me what aperture and shutter speeds i should be using.

heres a couple random shots with a 50mm and cheapo film

 

It's still there, you just can't see it very well

 

Start with a truck pic, and then into some travel pics!

anyone see this? Whats the point, why release this lens

http://fstoppers.com/canons-new-24-70mm-f4-lens-is-perplexing

 

To get quality glass to people who can't afford a 2.8 version, same thing with the 70-200 f4 and also 1.8 primes

 

yeah but then why not buy the 24-105 IS L its a great lens and cheaper than the 24-70 F4 IS

 

Im guessing for the same reason of some of the comments of people that posted on there.

Might want that distance but not want to pay the price of the f/2.8. You're still getting L quality glass for less $$ as the f/2.8.

I do see why it makes you wonder why they would release this lens considering there is a 24-105 f/4

 

went to Maui last week. still processing photos, but here's some for you guys to enjoy

 

Awesome one of a kind Ansel Adams book. Written in memory of Russell H. Varian.



It was a treat to see the chapters of this book laid out in their original form. It was published in a limited release in 1961.

I attended a workshop held at the V6 Ranch in Parkfield. Here are a few of my favorites.

 

promo shoot for actor/director Al Thompson...

 

ian408 - I would suggest shutter speed priority or manual and select a slow shutter speed while focusing in on the subject to get that motion blur

 

Nice pictures ian408.

 

Shooting into the sun with this one. Manual.

Thanks.
