East Lake posted:{spoiler}Baraka is awesome too.{/spoiler} I just watched Baraka for the first time yesterday, I have a very low tolerance for slow paced art films, but holy poo poo this is not one. It's one of the most emotionally intense movies I've ever seen I literally had to stumble over and slam the off button when they showed Auschwitz. Watch it today, and make you when you do it's on a projector with decent speakers and not a laptop screen.

Just impulse bought a $25 ringflash from these guys - DIY lighting ringflash Strobist just linked them so they should be exploding. Looks like an interesting product and $25 in lighting dollars is essentially a cheap bracket or swivel.

A battery grip will balance that out perfectly. You can also set the camera on your shoulder then and look through the viewfinder to give your arms a rest.

Sure. I do a variation of the last image from here: http://www.joemcnally.com/blog/2008/03/10/da-grip/ I use my left hand to support the lens barrel from the right side, and zoom with my thumb/index finger. I find it comfortable, but it may not be for everyone. I also have a pretty well developed notch at my shoulder joint I can rest the corner of my camera in.

General Gingersnap posted:"What do you mean instant film is being phased out?" If it breaks at least it's cheap enough to replace with relative ease! That's the beautiful thing about them after all. But despite the cheap construction there is no reason to believe it's going to crap out on you suddenly. Unless you drop it.

Well if it's a cheap-ish lens then you can theoretically expect the motor to die or something I guess.

Well the Canon 50mm 1.8 is pure plastic, and I have heard that at some point the lens just "falls apart in your hands" when shooting. I am just paranoid, I just bought a new lens and the last thing I want happen is one of my mainstays to break, especially when the prices have gone up to around $135. Still dirt cheap though. When I was in Cambodia I went out on a day trip with just that lens and I thought "what if this fucker breaks." I should invest in the L

Buy Reichstag's Kiev 60, do it. The Arsat lens they usually come with is insanely sharp. From the first roll with my Kiev:

Kiev 60s are fun. I like mine. If you've got some money to burn and like medium format, get one. The Arsat 30mm fisheye is a hoot.

Just one of the coolest Ukrainian cameras ever made. Its a medium format SLR that can be found for pretty cheap. Its an inexpensive way to get into medium format photography, and it has a Pentacon Six lens mount so lenses are considerably cheaper than other medium format systems. Beware though, Kiev cameras are notoriously unreliable due to the Arsenal factory's awful quality control. Duds are duds, but if you get your hands on a good one you should be fine. You can buy refurbished ones from Arax (http://araxfoto.com/)

Ask and ye shall receive:  Edit: I have to use my left eye, which was a little weird at first - but I've grown pretty acclimated to shooting like this. You can push the lower limits of your shutter speed if you get it down right.

From the first roll with my Kiev: I have a Zeiss Biometar 80 2.8 for mine, haven't bothered to try my arsat out.   Scans courtesy of my terrible canoscan 8600f. My cheap flatbed MF scans seem really inadequate now that I have a dedicated 35mm scanner, since I can actually see what properly focused scans look like. That's really the reason I would consider selling my MF gear, it's hard for me to justify using without scans of comparable quality.
