Canon vs Nikon (2)

My dust pump seems to be really sharp, I do have a lot of bad images from it sure, i have a lot i threw out cause they were as bad as the ones above..

Maybe whats bugging me is i think i might have gotten a keeper or two from my 100-400

My beef with the big sigmas is that they need to be stopped down to have decent contrast. They seem to "glow" wide open at the long end.

I dislike going into those 5D II vs. 1Ds III threads. It makes me sick!

Good evening!

haha yes, trust me, hair colouring (in the salon) is extremely complicated. it involves weighing amounts of colour vs developing solution vs natural colour vs any dyed hair.

it's actually quite mathematical and precise. down to the milligram.

If you are thinking of a dark red, don't do it...95% of the women in russia do that and trust me...it ain't hot!

Why bother? Once you've come to the realization that nothing can touch the IQ of hello kitty, talking about other cameras just feels like a waste of time!

I'm just trying to give you free advice...I've seen it done by women with really dark natural hair...and done on a large scale...despite the sheer #s, I didn't see anything attractive in the entire country!

Just sayin'...

The color in the avatar looks good...maybe go darker again...fair skin + dark hair = success.

BTW, judging by your interesting response to the russian comment, I'll assume you were contemplating some hideous reddish purple color!

Brownish red.

I'm a fan of the darker shades of brown, personally...

Julian is setting you up for failure...now he'll demand a photo post-coloring.

Good Evening Guys, do we live together Julian? we seem to pop in here at the same time for the past few days haha

Haha, less bruises for sure. Depends on your equipment, I've stabilized the amount I spend on paintball to only purchase admission and paintballs. As for photography, I have everything I need to take a wide range of photos. In photography, equipments wield the ability to shoot wider and better. I'm making due with what I have. I think after my investment in lighting, I'll have to save my money for rainy days.

Good night again!

you already have some very nice lenses..no need to buy more

It seems to hit its stride from 8pm eastern time to 4am eastern time.

Am I the only one that doesn't understand the market for the Ricoh CX and GR series cameras? The images they produce seem like nothing special and they are poop at higher ISO settings. And their GXR camera base looks uncomfortable. Most models are priced well over their competition too.

Who's buying these things??

For their price, I could buy the 1000D/XS already... they are not worth it at all

^Hehe! I have to sort out of some stuff with my business partner. We have a bunch of AB lights too. The cost of my gear isn't included of what my business partner has.

you have a photography business partner?

Not quite...I'm renting a 4500 sq-ft house out in the middle of nowhere southwest of Warrenton, VA. It's 56-57 miles from where I work.

And its costing me a whopping $500/month...

wow!!! any photo?

The only thing I like at McDonald's anymore are the chicken McNuggets and the McMuffin breakfast sandwiches. Everything else is bleaah! Not surprisingly, I used to love Mc'D's as a kid. Those rubber meat patties sure don't taste the same as in my childhood nowadays.

I love their Sausage Mcmuffin with egg sandwich... and their big macs and their Cheeseburger, I might eat there tomorrow... I haven't been to McDonalds in 3 months

ROFL! I've decided to just keep all my junky Canon gear. After a bit of discussion with my wife, she convinced me to not sell it. My wife has a great ear when I have an issue. She's the best!
