Just shoot everything at f/2.8. The scratch shouldn't be a factor.


I need the DOF for landscapes :p

This weekend I read about 600 pages. I was happy! I think I may even go to the library today. I prefer to buy books, but that has to wait til after a job is secured.

I wish I had the patience to read that much in such short time. I actually have tons of books I should be reading before the africa trip but it is going really slow.

My favorite activity during the rainy season is to read an entire book in one day. And not a Dr. Seuss, either! A real book! No pictures! A plot and everything!


I tend to ramble. Feel free to put me on ignore.

My hands are shaking, and there's a pink elephant floating around in my apartment... This can't be good. :confused:

Pink, you're OK. It's green you need to worry about. The rest of us, OTOH . . .

Your dog seems quite puzzled. I think he's wondering where he's gonna sit ;-)a

Not at all - he's wondering when Wool's going to get around to offering him a lap . . .

Ah, yes! Need a good quiet time so I can start on Deathly Hallows. Not to mention a few dozen other books in my slush pile . . .

Ive spent the last 2 hours trying to bring life back to a photo that one of my girlfriends friends wanted me to fix. Its one of her baby photos scanned and there were creases and spots EVERYWHERE!

What have i learnt from this experience? The spot healing tool is magic, the clone tool has its limits and those cloth multi coloured backgrounds are EVIL.

ah well, still have a bit more to do on it, but not much and i am quite pleased with the result thus far.

Im turning in for the night guys, got another day of moving furniture ahead of me...

goodnight plastic container people

I see I am not the only one having difficulty here.

May I weep quietly on your shoulder? I'll bring my own hanky.


Weep away weary Wu!


I only ask that you please wipe the snot from my shoulder.

A bit of fine sandpaper will grind that scratch right out...!

Doubt it. Any amount of polishing would damage the multicoating. Can't see it in the viewfinder, so hoping all is good.. :)
