This is a video I made, but it's essentially photography.

hopefully I'll have 1500 Euros left to buy me such a beautiful xpan.

The second one would be sick without the lurkers and with better timing.

I really like these three. I was in San Francisco for a day last month and certainly did not see any fog like this. How often does it get like this if it's something that's consistant?

Often enough. Oddly we get a lot of fog in the summer time. But Golden Gate Bridge can get pretty intense and even pretty early in the day like 4-5pm. It sucks but most people here are used to it.

If you could send that fog over to Baltimore, I'd gladly accept it.

Poor guy got hit by a car. Excuse the grain, it shook me awake and I was fumbling with my camera in a sleepy daze.

And of course the obligatory lovely window ladies.

I have a Flickr for my favourite photos, but I also take tons of family photos. what program (tried mega and it fuxking sucked) should i use for transferring a folder or bunch of photos? gotta keep it simple for my parents

A.J.K. · « **Reply #3853 on:** July 16, 2013, 06:43:08 PM »

Check out Dropbox, really straight forward.

Hercules Rockefeller · « **Reply #3854 on:** July 17, 2013, 01:16:17 AM »

dropbox, best idea.

question for the tech-savvy guys here: i am torn between getting a old 5D Mk1 as an addition to my 7D and selling the 7D and getting a 5DMk2...

i simply want that goddamn FF sensor, even though i of course know that i wont need it. and i kinda feel odd having 2 cameras, but i dont know if i will be happy with the slower framerate of the 5dMk2, even though i hardly ever shoot sequences.

or maybe even go for a 1DMk3?

any ideas, input, experiences? (especially upgrading from crop to FF or 5Dmk1 to mk2 or sth... hell, i would even take advice from nikon guys! haha)

www.wetransfer.com is pretty easy to use, just put the email you want to send the files to and a a fake email address as the sender and youre good

well acording to dpreview, the mk1 shoots at 3fps, and the mk2 shoots at 3.9, so in reality, not much difference. So its whether you think its worth the extra money, for nearly an extra frame a second. And as for the mk3, my friend upgraded from the mk2 to the mk3 and says the only real difference for him was the video. Personally id just go with the mk1, save a bit of money and still get that quality on ff shooting

Some stuff from my most recent roll.

and some cell phone stuff from the Grand Teton/Yellowstone trip I just got back from. I shot five rolls while I was out there so expect a bunch of pictures of Elk and Bison soon.

i just got the 6d. i started out looking for the 5d mark ii, but it the 6d is basically the new version of the 5d mark ii, and just a couple hundred dollars more. also way way better in low light which is pretty rad. it shoots 4.5 frames per second, and i definately wish it was faster there. i didnt think i'd care but its probably the only thing i dislike about the camera so far. I dunno if its worth the extra $$$ for a 5d mark iii or 1dmk3(if those are faster, i cant remember)

full frame is pretty cool, but also annoying that you lose so much telephoto. I dunno, its my first dslr and im super happy with it, havent shot a lot of video but it looks pretty great to me. im not a pro tho, sorry.

The 5d MkIII is the new version of the 5d MkII. If you want a full-frame camera, don't get a 1D MkIII. That's not a full-frame camera.

I don't understand what you mean by "you lose so much telephoto." You mean it's a wider shot? If you just crop it, it'll be the same thing as a camera with a smaller sensor.

Hercules, I'd say just shoot film if you want full-frame.

I wish all those pictures had things that were on fire. I'm really getting tired of being a fire fighter with no fires.
