RE: Miami Slide Fest

When Kodak stops making slides, i'm switching to Fuji, when Fuji stops and no one else makes 'em, i'll be 100% digital, but hopefully that will never ever happen.

The day I start examining photos for what may be under the surface at +30 gauge is the day I sell my cameras and give it all up. That is sheer madness.

RE: Being Asked To Take Photos For Business Cards

Justin,
If this is the same guy i've dealt with (md11 check captain), I usually asked him to make some cards for me in return for using my photo/s -there really isn't much money in it for him when it's all said and done so the cards for me worked out great.

Good time to remind people to be careful with what they put up indeed. Also what they say.

RE: Long Time Nikonian Enters Planet Canon

The below is well said and true. Both have different purposes and both do what they do as expected. =================================== Even people like Joe Pries are happy with 4fps on a 10D while still shooting with the EOS1VHS. You just have to adapt your shooting habits when switching to digital.
