gently caress my life. I was shooting some test shots with my K10 a few days ago and set it to 6MP JPEG and forgot to change it back to DNG RAW. Today I shot freshman day for fun because they're always doing stupid poo poo and I didn't realize that I was shooting JPEG. They came out OK for the most part, but all my beautiful high ISO noise looks like retarded JPEG compression now  CHECK YOUR SETTINGS BOYS AND GIRLS. CHECK AND DOUBLECHECK AND CHECK AGAIN

It could just be an odd, unreliable eBay seller like the one you've experienced. When ever I order photography "gifts" from a Chinese vendor they usually arrive within a couple days :-/

Mine always take the maximum amount of time they mention, if not a bit longer. Sucks, I've been waiting on a nice package of adapters and an accessory lens for like two weeks. I usually don't mind paying a premium of a couple bucks to buy from a US seller in most cases.

Well, I was watching last night's Jimmy Fallon and Elijah Wood was a guest. Next thing I know, hes talking about lomo and cross processing and showing off these pictures of his friends throwing a hammer around. http://www.lomography.com/magazine/lomoamigos/2009/08/10/elijah-wood-shooting-with-the-lomo-lc-a-plus I guess its getting close to prime time for the holga crowd. Does that make it more or less ironic?

Martytoof posted:Pentax in space, bitches! this is pretty amazing from an space engineering pov. not that it was able to withstand operation in a vacuum but that it the k10d may be considered space rated (though it probably needs to go through thermal cycling). Also, I think a Nikon is used on the ISS to take photos of earth as a part of an experiment.

As far as cameras in space go, all I can imagine is the mirror slapping open and sending a camera twirling in zero-g. I'm sure that violates some law of thermodynamics but I can't help but laugh.

I'm sure that violates some law of thermodynamics but I can't help but laugh. cameras mounted on probes and satellites require quite a bit of isolation and shock absorption from any vibration from the spacecraft (reaction wheels/CMGs/ et al). For something like Hubble, well, I would hate to be working on their attitude, determination, and control (ADC or ACS) team because they probably have pointing requirement of keeping some miliarcsecond precision over the course of a week. On that note. here's the gibbis thread on the new Hubble photos: http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3198607 also: evil_bunnY posted:Well it does slap back down a fraction of a second later 8) p much. momentum's conserved.

I climb things. I refuse to climb things if there is a light rain, or a heavy fog, or anything that raises the moisture levels. It has rained every night where I live since for three weeks. I wake up at 3am, ready to go, I step outside and pow, rain. I'm never going to finish my folio.

Augmented Dickey posted:goddamnit why is it that every day I feel like going out and shooting it decides intermittently rain Best part about living in California: it never rains. Ever. When it does do what people from here refer to as "rain" it's more like some foggy poo poo that's gone before you even notice. When I work shoots that have weather days factored in I'm like When I lived in Savannah it was awful, I could never get anything done because of the flash-flood monsoons that happened every 15 minutes or so.

I've never lived anywhere super-cold, but when I was in Beijing for a winter I bought a cheap pair of gloves and cut out the bottom of the index finder and thumb on the right hand and used those.

If you just use some really soft leather gloves you should be able to use your camera fine. It's how I shoot late fall football and what I did when I was in China in the winter.

Last winter (2008) I was shooting in -20C and it was loving collllld. I have a pair of fingerless gloves which work when it is cool out but useless at that temperature. Also your battery life really goes downhill.

So how is this supposed to work: Roman Abramovich zaps snappers with laser shield I mean, sure, I could imagine being able to manually target this thing to some obvious huge lens, but the various articles seems to imply that it is able to automatically block off any sort of camera which seems pretty insane.

How many cameras could this system, if it is actually effective, target at once? Put three guys on a boat shooting the same thing, one of them will get the shot. Seems silly. I'd like to see it in action. Good point about the hilarious lawsuit that would result from a laser fired into an SLR's lens. Given the nature of the celebrity photography business, it would almost be preferred with the amount of publicity and demand for photos it would generate.
