In reference to the film storage question, I do the same shit. I'm also pretty bad when it comes to taking good care of them. Most of my binders end up on the floor or something like that. I need a shelf.

And so this post isn't totally worthless, PHOTOS!

Not sure if anyone cares but here is the first look at the cheap full frame from Nikon. Pretty hyped on this considering this might be under 2k. Going to be a great walk around camera for me. Specs below:

•24.7MP full frame sensor
•Weight: 760g (850g with battery and memory cards), the D800 weights 900g
•3.2" LCD with 921K dot with ambient sensor control
•HDMI output
•Video compression: H264/MPEG-4
•Full HD with 30p, 25p, 24p, HD with 60p, 50p, 30p, 25p
•Viewfinder coverage: 100% for FX , 97% for Dx
•The Nikon D600 will have built-in AF motor
•The body most probably will be weather sealed
•The D600 may not have built-in GPS as initially reported
•ISO range: 100-6400 (with Lo-1 ISO 50 and Hi-2 ISO 25,600)
•39 AF points (with an option of 11 AF points), 9 cross-type AF points
•AF face detection
•Exposure compensation: ±5 EV (same as the D800)
•The D600 will probably use the EN-EL15 rechargeable Li-ion battery
•5 fps (same as the D700, the D800 has 4fps)
•2 SD card slots with Eye-fi support
•Build-in retouching images functionality
•Built-in flash with sync speed of 1/250s
•Two user settings: U1 and U2
•Fn button
•Auto DX crop mode
•In-camera RAW editor
•Built in time-lapse functionality
•Possibly with build-in HDR
•New external battery grip
•To be released this summer
•The D600 will probably not have an internal AF motor, which means it will work only with AF-S lenses (just like the D3200 and D5100)
•The price of the D600 is rumored to be very low - maybe as low as $1500
•Announcement before Photokina (September 2012)
•One or more low-priced f/4 lenses will be announced with the D600. For example, Nikon recently filed a patent for a 24-70mm f/3.5-4.5 full frame lens which seems to be designed for a cheaper FX DSLR body

woodfriend.blogspot.com is my photo blog if you're keen to check it out. I've definitely been slacking on taking photos as of late. Also, speaking of photography, I'm not too keen on instagram.

I have been playing around with HyperSync on my Pocket Wizards lately, but cant seem to get it working properly? Does anybody have any experience with HyperSync on the MiniTT and the Flex TT5?

I have tried googling around, but they are written a little cryptic for a guy not too good at English. So I thought maybe somebody here was able to break it down a little more understandable - especially skateboard related without big studio flashes and so on!

It's been a while, pretty much posting just to post. Don't know how I feel about either of those.

$300. I'm sure there are even bigger bargains, but yeah I'd be on the look out for the older manual focus primes, some of them are a steal these days.

^^^Looks like a dope concert to go to. Jeezy and Gucci would be fun to see live. Hell...I am even a Ross fan too and wouldn't mind seeing him on stage.

some snaps from copenhagen.

I really like the last shot with the open window

brianwilson · « **Reply #3084 on:** June 22, 2012, 12:57:49 PM »

Has anyone shot with the 50mm canon lense? I'm thinking about getting it.

Hercules Rockefeller · « **Reply #3085 on:** June 23, 2012, 09:23:07 AM »

on APSC or FF/Film? i personally cant really get along with 50mm on apsc, dont know why. i guess i?m gonna try the canon 35mm/f2 since its cheap and i dont have much money.

TwisT · « **Reply #3086 on:** June 23, 2012, 08:09:58 PM »

i shoot with a canon f 1/8 50mm sometimes

its gives an awesome affect to videos(not skating) since the focus shifts so easily. the depth of field is wonderful especially for portraits cause people eat that "boca" shit up. I just dont think its wide enough to take out in the streets. I've read reviews where people say really the only lens you need but im not down standing 10ft away to get something in frame... the low light performance is awesome... for a like a small concert to shoot with no flash.

example

Hercules Rockefeller · « **Reply #3087 on:** June 24, 2012, 03:31:31 AM »

more copenhagen.
