RunFish posted:I sell Camera equipment for a living. A friend of mine sent me this video the other day. *sigh* I worked at Ritz Camera in the '90's. I can't tell you how many poor saps thought they had a Nikon SLR when they walked into the store with one of those hunks of crap. Despite saying "Nippon" instead of "Nikon", despite the big peek-a-boo viewfinder instead of a pentaprism, they thought they had some top of the line gear. Remember Fuji Velvia film and Minolta Maxxum cameras? We would get at least one person a week looking for Velveeta film for their Mylanta camera. Since I'm being grognardy about photos, remember APS film? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Photo_System Kodak's brilliant idea to introduce a new film format died pretty much at birth. I don't remember ever processing any of it while I worked for Ritz.

RunFish posted:I have often thought that the 90s (and the 80s) where the worst thing to happen to cameras. I still get people to this day contacting me wanting to sell me their Canon S-2000. When I explain to them (in a much nicer way) what they have is a lovely knock off they get mad at me. I've even see some "Panasonic" video cameras that were just radios. I agree. Canon users got screwed when they switched from the FD mount to the EF mount. Anyone who bought a VHS-C camcorder got screwed. Pentax? Minolta? *snicker* Olympus did build some badass point-and-shoot cameras though.

Retail Slave posted:In the early 90's the absolute coolest legal substance an 11-year-old could obtain (at least in my area) was a can of Jolt Cola. If you had Jolt, you were the poo poo. Then the rumor was they discontinued it because some kid drank 3 and his heart exploded. Remember Josta? I think it had 67 gr. of sugar in each 20 oz. bottle. It kept me going when I worked third shift.

syscall girl posted:My favorite part about the Crash Test Dummies was that the guy who voiced Larry was also Garfield, as well as Venkman on the Ghostbusters cartoon. He was so sarcastic. Lorenzo Music, the voice of TV Garfield, was the voice of Venkman (Bill Murray's movie character). Bill Murray was the voice of Garfield in Garfield, the Movie.

leidend posted:I still think that Genesis is one of the best looking consoles ever, minus the weird non-NA red buttons in that shot of course. It was pretty enough to get me to buy a Genesis despite being a staunch SNES supporter that generation. Buck Rogers, Countdown to Doomsday is reason enough to own a Genesis.

spleen merchant posted:Nah, I spent quite a while trying to find them cause I was curious too. Google found nothing - found those by searching ebay for "90s space toy". If you look closely one of them has "mac" written on it which may have been the brand. http://theredwoodconnection.com/?page_id=192 These? Jaycee and the Wheeled Warriors e:f,b
