Maybe, but I talked to my dealer today, and he said Amazon put the pre order up today, and after 6 hours, Fuji HQ asked them to take it down because they had already gotten 180 pre orders. He said he isn't sure how many will make it to America for the first round out of the factory. I told him I would pay the entirety right now and I could hear the dollar signs appear in his eyes as he paused before saying, "I think that could be arranged". I WILL have one of the firsts. If there wasn't a 350 dollar markup in Japan, and I didn't have a free way to get it in from the US without shipping or VAT, I would order from there because it's supposed to drop in Japan on March 5.

I was actually aiming for the flare A lot of people in car scenes seem to be doing it at the moment and I really liked the aesthetic so gave it a go.

You should buy plane tickets and follow the X100 launch like it's the McRib (and document it with an X100).

This is getting pretty far away from photography, but I had some fun tonight playing with an image-to-sound converter. http://www.skyfell.org/soundofanimage.html It interprets RGB pixel values as MIDI notes, which can then be mapped to different instruments and used in audio synthesis programs. An hour or so of screwing around turned one of my old urbex pictures:  Counters into this audio:

Shmoogy posted:That's pretty cool. Is there a legitimate(/alternate) use for that technique, or is it purely just doing something awesome? One of my friends got an assignment to reinterpret a self-portrait into a different sensory medium, so she asked if I knew anything about turning an image into sound. FruityLoops and Adobe Audition have tools sorta like this too, I used to use those to make some weird generative work for one of my New Media undergrad courses. It can be an interesting way to make abstract soundscape stuff or for multimedia image+sound installation work... so the legitimate use is pretty much "lol art." Also, Aphex Twin sometimes use hosed up pictures to control spectrographs in their music:  I'm going to try using this PC program when I get home later: http://www.nicolasfournel.com/audiopaint.htm Similar idea, but it'd be turning images into sound by using additive synthesis instead of MIDI. Here's a sound sample from their site, made out of an image from the Hubble Telescope: http://www.nicolasfournel.com/waves/AudioPaint/GhostsFromSpace.mp3 BobTheCow posted:drat that's super cool! It'd be fun to play with different images to see if you can get sounds that fit the same mood. Bright images make really horribly high-pitched tones. Colorful images create a lot of difference between the three main instrument channels, getting more chaotic with more color differences and saturation. It also depends a lot on which instruments you map the RGB values to... using square wave, woodblock, and saw wave made that image sound almost exactly like background music from the game DOOM. Piano and flute just sound jangly and goofy, but might work for a dark yet colorful image. I did add a lot of post-processing too once it started yielding a direction that I liked. Converted image to MIDI, pulled MIDI file into GarageBand, then designed some quick custom synth instruments and effects for each track instead of using the generic midi stuff. It was pretty fun to try, kind of a neat scattershot way of getting new sound ideas too. Dr. Cogwerks fucked around with this message at 05:37 on Feb 10, 2011 |

PIMM if you are interested in obtaining a japanese model, why dont you shoot me a mail if your local dealer wont work out. I am sure we can arrange something.

I'm going to Japan in late March, I have no need for an X100 but maaaaaaan do I want one. I'm putting any cash I earn from photography aside to pay for a 5D MK 2 and I'm at the $1000 mark right now. That cash could easily disappear. psylent fucked around with this message at 05:57 on Feb 10, 2011 |

A work D300, its battery grip, and the 17-35 2.8 smell like baby shampoo now. I shot the musical Evil Dead in a small studio theater, and there was fake blood everywhere. They said they go through about a gallon a night. It was pretty funny.
