Sure we abandoned the place in 1979, but I liked living there and enjoy going as often as I can. Oh you fled early. I didn't flee until 1991. I still have family there and enjoy going to visit. Well, they tell me I enjoy it, I'm not so sure. I miss Metro Beach.

Phoenixkh a mere speck More info Post edited over 7 years ago by Phoenixkh. | May 20, 2016 19:28 | #7442 jay125 wrote in post #18013596 I'd ask you about your 5D, but that didn't work out so well last time, now did it?  Ok, reset the timer... LOL.... I'm almost in my right mind tonight.... the 5Dc showed up and is in pristine condition. It only has around 20k shutter actuations. The grip was in the locked PO box when I got home this morning around 1:30AM. It is also in perfect condition.... I couldn't be happier. The Canon grip I bought on eBay also came with 2 third party batteries and a charger. I was able to get the RRS L bracket used as well.

The Canon grip I bought on eBay also came with 2 third party batteries and a charger. I was able to get the RRS L bracket used as well. My first venture into full frame cost me next to nothing. Around 11% of the cost of everything if purchased new... with 2006 dollars. I know the 5Dc has limitations, esp. with ISOs, but for what I'm going to be doing with it, it will be fine. I'll mostly use it when I'm out birding for landscapes and people photographs, on a tripod, so lower ISOs will be fine. That way, I'll be able to be more spontaneous as I won't have to change lenses on my 1D IV. Sweet! I'm also impressed with how much I got for so little. I like the basics of it as well. Very few bells and whistles, it forces you to interact. I like that part. Now pics or it never happened

Answer "Detroit"

I miss Boblo, The Ghoul, the Spirit of Detroit Regatta, and cruising Woodward. I don't miss the dreary skies, brown winters, and rusty cars. I also miss Boblo, The Ghoul, don't remember the Detroit Regatta, and we cruised Gratiot. Good times.

Today, whenever someone says that to me, I'll either tell them that or, when cranky, "I've never heard that before!" You don't strike me as a "cranky" guy.
