5 years ago I used to post on facebook photos direct from my blackberry, I remember that I used to take two photos on my dslr for later use and BB for instant update... now I try to approximate that with the iPad, most people still post direct from their smartphones and using instagram, not as pretty as dslr, but very timely...
the new samsung camera has wifi connectivity, July 24 canon will announce the first mirrorless...maybe that new camera plus the 7 inch iPad due in September is a nice travel combi. The new canon plus good adapter for EF lens is in my shopping list now.


Cheers,

first scam on airbnb, asks for my FB profile, calls me. "hey you don't want those airbnb charges, lets do 5k cash and you can have your apartment I have a bigger perfect one thats not listed on airbnb yet."

I call bull%&(

This is a totally different one:
Next one replies to me apartment I asked about is not avil, but they have another one ALSO not on BNB yet and they will just let me rent ANOTHER unit which is not the unit I am renting and can show me pics AFTER I pay. Oh yeah? uh huh. SURe.

DUDE. srsly wow.

Tony, I was shooting off the pier at dusk and the moon was still out. I shot it wide open (f2.8) at ISO 100. The shutter speed if I recall is 2.5 seconds on a tripod. Does this sound right? Also, focused to infinity.

Take off the 10 stops :-)
are you shooting the moon or the sky? Full moon shots are typically F7 1/320 .
