speaking of wide angle

Haystack by THXEY, on Flickr

I know, it's centered.

 

Haha! I gave you the written rule. Cause if there wasn't, I'd call my 500 a WA

That Nikon 24-70 is a great lens. Owned one.

 

I'll take a 24-120 f4

 

That doesn't look like San Diego Bro....and I don't see a Panda anywhere nearby.

You should look for a Bacon/Maple donut tho.

Got a few pics of my wife while she was pregnant on Saturday. This is the only one I really liked. What do you think? I hope you like it because I can't take any more since she had our son on Monday.

 

It's a nice angle Adam. Congrats again on the birth of your son.

 

Did some playing with a tripod tonight. Not a real camera tho but still..think they are okay. The quality is horrible and no sharpness to them..but for a point a shoot nikon..its okay..

Now that is a sweet picture!!

 

Thanks! Can't wait to have a dslr to really tweak the settings better and have control over shutter speed and such.

But still turned out pretty cool haha

 

Title should be "Got Light?"






Making arrows today. Couple of good ones I think.

Blackdawg, have you looked into CHDK to hack your camera?

edit: NVM I see you're using a Nikon, as far as I know the CHDK is only for Canon so far


For any others interested these are a few pics i took with my canon SD800is

 

do tell

Im getting Canon here in the next week or so..

 

Also Love the Dirt bike shots!





Again..just playing..not great photos i know..but!..getting there..can't wait for a real SLR

 

If you get a Canon point and shoot you can do a CHDK hack (kind of like a jailbreak for your point and shoot) and you can upload other firmware on the camera to give you more function.

There are a lot of added features that you can get, I did it for the ability to keep the shutter open at whatever time I wanted to keep it open for and for the ability to save a RAW file format (when doing post editing RAW files are much better to work with). I think on some models you can even install games on the camera haha

Check out the link below, it will give you more information.

If you are getting a canon DSLR there is no need to worry about CHDK as you will already have all the functionality and features you will most likely need.

 

ahhhh very cool. My dad has a canon point and shoot..


i was looking at doing the Magic Lantern mod though on my dslr..

 

I've looked into the Magic Lanten but it seems to be more videocentric. I don't shoot video at all with my DSLR but if it's something you plan on doing then i'd say give it a shot, i've heard very good things about it.

What DSLR do you have/are looking at getting?

 

yea im wanting the video stuff for sure.

im looking at getting a 60D

 

The 60D is a good camera. Post up some pictures when you get it!
