Nice Pete

The 40D does fine with action shots.

It does. That's why I amended that. I'm just better at action shots with the M3.

I sold mine and bought cameras...

:shock: I would never sell mine but I sure haven't looked at anything new since I got into photography.

I probably shoot ISO 100 about 99.9% of the time.

Interesting it seems I so almost never get shutter speeds fast enough to shoot at 100.

My Olympus C-8080WZ almost never leaves ISO 50. I so wish Canon would extend the range of the x0D cameras to include 50. Even my Canon PowerShot S330 does ISO 50... :rolleyes: Why not the prosumer DSLRs?

Highlight Tone Priority. It's one of the custom functions.

Cool. I'll have to get the manual out and see how to turn it on.

That isn't a truck. It's an SUV. Well... Not quite an SUV, either. More like a PT Cruiser clone gone wrong. Not that the PT Cruiser was ever done right...

The HHR is actually a car with a truck body. The chassis is the same as a Cobalt.

Sorry to interrupt the machismo here guys...

But, GAA!!

I'm trying to process pictures in LightRoom, and I don't know if I've got a mouse issue, or a program issue, but when I try to grab a crop square to rotate it, it instead takes the crop guide off and magnifies the shot. Then when I try to use my sliders, it gets all erratic and won't let me grab a slider, then it moves back and forth.
It is driving me NUTS. I just spent about 15 minutes on one photo.

It had been doing little bits of it before... but never this bad.
I've closed the program. I've shut down the computer.

I'm going to try a corded mouse and see if that fixes it.
Anyone ever had these problems before?

I like that first one Pete.

Cat...change the batteries in your cordless mouse. That is what happens when mine get low.

Sorry, but they just don't appeal to me. Not one little bit...

This is my dream car:

Unfortunately, I have to face the facts. Her odometer went into six digits last week, and they're adding up fast. She won't last forever... :(
