KR on the new Nikon PC-E 24mm/3.5 that he ordered to go with his new D3. Apparently this is the *only* Nikon the lens works perfectly on, even the D300 has some minor limitations :(. But what I can't get over is his weird simplification notes about using this lens See the singular example (not...

As much as I like the 710is for it's feature set, it's just too thick to be a truly pocketable digicam. Sure I could get by with the extra 13mm / 0.5in 'girth', but it would be much better for me and others if they could some how get it down to only <1in/25mm thick. For now I'm dreaming of a...

why use IE8, when you can get S3.1 which is much more, (infinitesimally if you have a FIOS connection) stable & faster :) http://www.apple.com/pr/library/2008/03/18safari.html

You could get in trouble for having a open copy of any number of standard women's magazines at your work (or is it a double standard and alright for women to have such magazines open at the workplace?). Perhaps your sexual harassment dept needs to fine tune their 'terms & conditions' then :(...

Alfa Romeo to take another run at U.S. market (so if I bed Paris, will she buy me one of these, preferably the Spyder version :D) http://www.latimes.com/classified/automotive/news/la-fi-garage15mar15,0,662565.story ======================== Shades of the very rare LeMans TZ2 of the 1960's...

Push cameras out before the Olympics? Then they would have to be already in design mockup, spec's already considered. Then they need to have them field tested before production model runs, all this before the Olympics, in time for people to get their hands on them...not likely. Unless you are...

Otay! U mean the spam bots... like.... "Edit", "Splash" "wavemaker" "discfarm"...etc, there was a rash of postings in rapid succession by those recently :D

Is it any wonder Merc is not posting recently. With Obama promising the moon, but doing what, printing more money we don't have? Spend, spend, spend...wonderful spend. It's the Democratic solution (non-solution) for every political issue. So the economy is going down the dumps, boring, wanna be...

Best anecdotal evidence I seen all year! ;) But what about 'real' stuff like loading bloatware game modules, do they load 10sec faster? Does Vista boot 10sec faster? Enquiring minds want to know :p. Most important of all, is it more power/energy efficient than a Prius? At least 10% such that...

Lambo time http://www.dailynews.com/ci_8566443?source=rv In other 'that's so hollywood' news...be Paris Hilton's new bff-best friend 4evah (or until the show ends, lol) uggh. http://parisbff.com/

$1k/hr for her??? And Spitzer paid continuously for that? Both he and his wife Harvard, lawyers no less. What's the IQ for losers, how is it so called smart/intelligent people are so Effin dumb? http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/years/2008/0312084kristen5.html She looks Jewish to me.

Ignorance is bliss. Get one and *use* it before you condemn them as useless, just like a Mac with it's superior OS, lol. You sound like dd with his M$ indoctrination/brain wash

I would wait until they release a FF version of the D300 (as one of the Nikon marketing execs hinted at for the near future), which should blow any Canon product out of the water. Then you could take full advantage of their new, most excellent $2k 24mm T/S lens.

you would have the same expression if you were married to the squirting president

Yeah, I'm sure obama would test 100% too, just not the same 100% lol. Say where's that Splash, iGary, etc?

Was the day they elected the spewing pr0n star president...as Mr T would say "you fool"

^how so? why not 21, or 24MP that Sony will have later this year?

The all new 5D---real soon Found this thead rumor hilarious...$3.5k, crap, it had better be a better FF than the D3, for that kind of $$$!!! So where's the world's smallest, thinest, compact FF 3D for $1k or less ;) ? http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/read.asp?forum=1032&message=27125455

one to 1 & 1/2 stop improvement, that's subjective. you'll note that on the dpreview of the D300, all 4 of them have the same DR, just a matter of what they are better at one end or the other, highlights or shadows, at respective ISO...

Dueling PR guys = vaporware fun I was going to start a new thread in the news section, but then thought if I post this here and mubs doesn't see it, and the posts into the news section, timwit will then be able to post a link to this thread where the 'hidden' information is. :p. To bring the...

Get a Mac Tales of a BeOS Refugee From BeOS to OS X (by way of Windows and Linux) http://www.birdhouse.org/macos/beos_osx/ Well I try to get the totally M$ indoctrinated like dd--- to rethink; but alas, can't get those well brainwashed to 'think different' and find their way to the dark...

Hmm, now I'm getting confused again...maybe tea can explain to this dumb human ;). If typical white LED (blue driven) has a luminous efficacy of 330lm/w, wtf where they going on in this linked article about... luminous efficacy vs. efficency, I'm friggin confused...

Doubling the highest efficiency prototype LED's...is it commercially possible in the near term??? http://technology.newscientist.com/channel/tech/dn13266-crystal-coat-warms-up-led-light.html Yeah, may not ever make it to cost efficient manufacturing economy of scale, sort of like SED monitors...

Double the capacity, double areal density = higher performance/dollar...get the other single platter 160GB Samsung instead (both PATA & SATA models): http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000Z4C0M2/themussou08427958-20

so I take it you want something free, not shareware or anything, with octo core capability :D ? I take it you also want file compatibility for the phone in question, so probably good idea to specify what file formats you are referring to, ty. Probably something on Linux that will do this...

'macho, macho man! I want to be, a macho man' Which is why you should have waited on a newer Intel CPU along with Eaglelake chipset. If you really want to be a geeky macho man with PS CS3, then you need more RAM, not SSD's. CS3 screams with tons of RAM and an octo CPU. Meh (OTAY), you should...

best sex should last seven to 13 minutes, lol! Best sex lasts for seven to thirteen minutes http://www.news-medical.net/?id=35942 Maybe Tannin can explain, why is this story coming up with so many Google hits with the Oz press, when it's an US/Canadian sexperts study. Though we can leave...

Shipping this month (supposedly): http://www.seagate.com/ww/v/index.jsp?locale=en-US&name=null&vgnextoid=034f2a0ec2a78110VgnVCM100000f5ee0a0aRCRD battling to keep up with SSD's Umm, what server environs ("Designed for the world’s most demanding enterprise storage environments"), are these...

To what purpose do you need 2 x 32GB? What are your minimum performance characteristics desired, for what applications/intended uses (other than geek factor as with quad core CPU's :) )? 'good prices'...relative term, give a ballpark range of your own 'good prices'. If ultimate STR is the...

Which 128GB SDD, based on what size process, what performance? http://www.electronista.com/articles/08/01/07/samsung.128gb.ssd.and.more/ Typical of Samsung, always announcing, then later, much later releasing something...was supposed to be out late 2007, then above link said H1, now it's...

I present this article to end :D Temperature Monitors Report Widescale Global Cooling (note: with both FF & Camino under Mac OSX 10.3 that I'm running, couldn't stop the page re-load fast enough to get away from DailyTech's coding flaw that only temporarily allows you to view the page, before...

Less than a year after the E410, Oly announces the much lower priced, improved E420! $200 dollars less. Would have been nicer if they included sensor stabilization...next year. Wonder if an E520 is soon to follow with equally lower price...

Not necessarily true tea. Canon 5D & Nikon D3 essentially have same size pixel photo sites, just that lazy arse Canon isn't going to update the 5D until Nikon kicks their sorry arse with a D300 FX version. Olympus already has a 10k ISO PnS, lol. 'Clean' and 'dirty' are in the eyes of the...

E8400 sells for about the same price as the 8200, less than e8500 buy a good margin, and most likely is a better bet for overclocking. As to Stereodude, 5yrs and looking for the fastest possible system, for the lowest cost, but he also wants legacy, 5yr hardware I/O support? Nearly impossible...

:errr: So I ran 1/2 a block every other 3rd block to get to the post office tonight before it closed, maybe a mile or so, damn am I tired/out of shape :(. Walked another 1/2 mi to Marie Calendars, my local restaurant has extended the February $5.99 pie sale until this Sunday...whoo hoo! But then...

I can feel a jtr rant coming up right about now ;). How about those Dem plans to tax oil companies, now that they are making record profits and price of petrol is @record high of $100/barrel, with pump prices supposedly to hit $4/gal (we've heard this one before too, it's an election year so we...

LOL, Tannin, nice anecdotal evidence there, hardly compelling. Did not read the reviews of the HP lasers mentioned above in that link, seemed like they were complaining about customer service and reliability of a specific HP inkjet printer. Kind of like Canon's waffling on the 1DMkIII wouldn't...

Chock up yet another win for the Mac. Proving once again, that *real* pros use a Mac...and people with too much time on their hands, and no knowledge any better- like tea, use M$ products like Vista, lol. Final Cut Pro and the making of 'No Country for Old Men'...

I have no solution, but what Tannin is describing sounds like a common digital asset management situation. Being common, would not any number of professionals have worked with this before, such that there is a way to do this with some DAM software? Like IView Pro or Cumulus...

Suggest you check with vB forums. I have seen another site @3.6.6? that probably is using another hack, after you reg, the 1st post most be approved by Admn, before it appears in a thread, you get an pop-up message that your post has been submitted for review by Admn. Or you can use the one...

dd, Lost, can someone give me a translation of Tannin's rant, er post, also? Seems besides being a side tangent of some sort of 2008's Bush bashing, spinoff of that thread posting, like LM's UPS help thread, both authors know what they are thinking (as opposed to me, as I rarely know what I'm...

While neither dd or howell need it given their rapid fire blogger style short post responses, I think Handy needs to increase the time to edit post to at least one day for most of us here :D. Was there a question here; or are you just making statements, observations? Perhaps Lost can translate...

Well Tea seems to have the biggest *mouth*, why don't you ask her, or maybe Tannin will :). Is that for a laptop that is primarily used at a desk, or more so for traveling; cause for travel you might want a smaller one (then again, anyone who has no trouble wielding around a monster big Canon...

Anyone have any luck in contacting Merc, via email or otherwise? Suppose we should set up the find Merc a good pizza thread, and then ship him one or more, via Express next day mail? :elephant:

Looks like you're now ready for a 24mm tilt/shift on a FF body :). So where are these pictures in the 'Something Random Pictures' thread? I must have missed the notes, where did you go in Asia, vacation or business, was it enjoyable...read they had some tough times with heavy snow in northern...

Whimps: http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/13/carl-zeiss-creates-over-five-foot-long-telephoto-lens/ http://www.robgalbraith.com/bins/content_page.asp?cid=7-7898-8558 somewhere on Miranda's forum, the owner/pricipal of this lens posted a reply to what it's all about...Saudi person allegedly...

What lens did you use (focal length?). I would have thought a 10D would have higher image quality, but then I don't know how much you cropped the image. IIRC, my film images taken with the OM1/2 back in the 1970's looked about the same, though I had the vantage point of being in a totally dark...

Except, maybe not :D Bose-Einstein condensate :p http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bose%E2%80%93Einstein_condensate http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/zero/ Slowing light down to a crawl, then back to light speed...how is this possible? Beam me up Scotty...

Looks like I need to get a digiscope, Zeiss maybe, and that 21MP 1Ds III, lol Actually not too bad via naked eye, slightly hazy. Oly C50z f4.8, 8 sec. max jpeg quality...really sux, don't think Tiff file would be any better...guess I could go try.
