Ah nice been in bed warm and watching the storm out side. Looks like great waterfall weather and should bring up the surf.

Ahh you lucky bugger!

I need a thingy release, hows this one (external link)you recon?
Duncan you had one the other day. Usually for low light and slow shutter speeds I usually use the timer with tripod but thats so not pro ;)

that's the one I use - only difference is I've spliced a plug/socket inline so I can extend it if need be. I haven't needed be yet... :rolleyes:
I'll have a hunt around & see what I paid for it - think I got it off e-bay.com for around $28
edit: paid $27 for mine in 2005. Found a similar trader adidt cord ebay ausy (external link) Ausy $20 shipped...


some fairly old canon camera stuff, canon lenses, Manfrotto "thingy", and an M5, also an M6 that has had a 720nm filter bolted onto the sensor:

i've got the canon version of that one, same functions. i wanted a programmable timer release that can also take multiple shots for timelapse movies

however they dont make one for my model camera

will be getting one for my 30D when i get it, as well as the infra red one

you should - but then you should be sitting down when they tell you the price for the genuine canon (RS-80N3) piece of plastic & switch...

Options for you to weigh.. if you please ;)

  • Keep your 40 smackers, don't sleep, wake up feeling like crap tomorrow, then crap all day, then ponder spending the 40 smackers again, but don't, and then not sleep, then wake up feeling even worse than tomorrow (it makes sense, really), then feel like you've been hit by a train all day, then ponder spending the 40 smackers agaaaain, but don't, then wake up feeling even more horrid than the day after tomorrow.. and so the cycle continues
  • Spend the 40 smackers, get some sleep. Feel better tomorrow


Nah - don't spend it ;)

It worked - the depressing picture I painted has sent her off to the local pharmacy
Either that, or I pushed her over the edge ...

Bored. Want to get out and take some pics. Anyone inspired/got any ideas?
