Not sure if this counts, but I just spent about 10 minutes trying to clone out a dust spot in photoshop before realising that it was actually a bit of gunk stuck to my screen...

☝ yeah, it counts. Lol

It's prob been said before but I struggled with a friends tripod trying to extend the legs before realizing righty righty does not always apply, esp with an old leica tripod.

Doh

Fixed my old thread.

Nothing you do with a tripod will ever be as bad as my idiocy.

I had my 1D3 set on small JPG for almost the entire duration of my last shoot...

MEGA ****ING FAIL

Luckily I shot at least 75% with a 5Dc as it was mostly a portrait session, but I guess they won't be printing some of the shots larger than 6x9. **** me.

I'm just going to throw in some free prints and come up with some reasonable excuse as to why I'm a huge failure

ewheeler20 · 22nd of May 2012 (Tue)

I'll bet they won't even notice...

I realize ShutterSnappy has a low post count, but I couldn't help but notice the gear list. Maybe give this one honorable mention?

What's wrong with his gear list?
"Canon 60D Gripped - Canon 70-200 f4L IS -Canon EFS 10-22 - Canon 50mm 1.4 - Canon EFS-55-250 - Tamron 17-55 (2.8) - Speedlite 430 EX II "

I think OVF's point is that frequently, we associate low post count with someone new to photography; in which case the faux pas might be forgiven. However, the gear list indicates someone who might not be a new photographer, so he's fair game.

I can see his posts:

Is my histogram broken?
Camera won't AF
Flashing lights in viewfinder
Is my memory card bad?
My 7D not shooting 8 fps
Live view not working
Slow shutter speed except in manual
Diopter problems
Dirty lens?
Mirror stuck in up position?
Replay not showing pictures
How much does Canon charge to remove lens cap?

looks like he is shooting in live view, yes? I don't think I've ever seen a pro use that before...
