I'm pretty excited about it. I won't be affording it anytime soon though. I love that it's got the exposure compenstion right on the top. That's fucking awesome. That whole camera is awesome.

Fuck!

[.A.K.4.7.]

that fuji is a straight up swag-camera.
i mean not to say it wouldnt be useful, but it looks nice as fuck.

Pretty obvious where it got its inspiration from...




I LOVE that it's got no logos on the front...

FUCK I just loaded a roll of film into my dev. tank and realized I don't have any fixer.

Gotta make some fixer but I don't have any. FML.

So tonight at work a guy came up to me and through conversation, i found out that he spent 3 years in the middle east as a photojournalist (he just got back yesterday) guy was mad weird, prolly high as a kite, but he was super nice. told me about it a bit and actually invited me to hang out with him sometime (tad weird) then he pretty much invited me to go to the middle east with him next time he goes haha.

weird thing is, im almost considering it

AK: it's almost time for you to sell your G10 and move on to fuji.

Here's some quick points:
APS-C sensor

Full manual control with aperture ring ON THE LENS and shutter control on the top.
1:1 Electronic viewfinder, AND 0.5:1 Optical viewfinder. downside: only 90% frame coverage instead of a real rangefinder that covers more then 100%

35mm f/2 lens that doesn't extend or collapse.

built in ND3 filter that you can switch on or off.

yeah i saw this awhile back
mmm

i would aswell.. if i had life insurance, enough change to live off from and the proper equipment, i honestly would.

All I ever get is old black ladies wanting to dye my hair, where I work.

[UpstateHate585]

only reasons im not too sure about it are, i would lose my job, and i don't know this guy at all. he was mad weird but nice as shit. im considering meeting him at a starbucks or some shit to check his stuff out. instead of at his house haha. im not about to be turned into a skin suit

make sense.. although ive chilled with an ex con in his rented room..
had a joint, we talked about his good ol days of being affiliates with the hells angels and in the penitentiary while hells angels and rock machine were in a huge war..
i thought after awhile i wasnt getting out of that place.
i dont know what i was thinking

went out for a picnic with my lady friend yesterday....weather was fuckin sick...just a quick pano shot on the 10-20mm hand held...strangley enough this has hardly any editing and isnt hdr :/



Paid another visit to Kew Gardens in London as well on friday...shot 3 rolls of film im waiting on developing...love it there...its where i shot my first ever roll of film...i didnt take this photo but im waiting on my film so gonna post em when i get em...but gotta look fresh while out and about haha!

[AnonymousWaaa]

Have had some good memories from kew gardens, ever since i was young, stealing the chillis that were growing, eating them, and nearly dying

haha fuck eating them mate! nah its a fuckin cool place...good for photos...good for chilling as well...

I live 15 minutes out of south east london, can get to central london pretty quick though

ah cool man...im in croydon...will have to meet up at some point...you got facefuckerbook?

yeah you dont need an expensive camera... but if your shooting with a leica? lol, those are probably some of the cleanest/dopest cameras aside from hasselblad.ntm my buddy went to a hasselblad show earlier this week and shot with a $35'000 cam... ready for this? 60 megapixels!! lmao.... butttt yes full frame craps on lower models, you'd really just have to have one and learn to use it after having the lower models border line to full frame to really appreciate it, its totally necessary for alot of things such as weddings or other fast moving sports just as a couple of examples. butttt just the camera aint gonna do it for you... its all about the lenses, better lenses equal better pictures.. no doubt about that. butttt having an awesome camera cant teach you to be awesome and neither can art school lol

Yeah bro that 35,000 shit was wild.. But just a luxury. Not a necessity in any way at all in my opinion. And yeah man we take cooler pics with our iPhones than some people with their facy D3's

People like that are generally going to be a bit weird. You have to have a certain aura about you to go to a place like that (I'm assuming he goes to places of conflict) and photog all that shit.

REAL SHIT REAL SHIT REAL SHIT SHOT BY www.tomgouldshoots.com IF YOU LIKE GRAFFITI AND POLO LIKE I DO, YOU WILL LIKE THIS

all shot on canon 5d mkII... amazing what these things can do video wise. Nikon just can't touch canon in this department.

with 5D, 7D and their new 8-15mm fisheye
i want that chopper

What would you guys recommend as far a point and shoot? I want manual options but Not all out professional type stuff but a good amount of control over the outcome.

[S4d3n]

Any of the Canon SD Digital Elph 10 MP + cameras, really nice cameras, good quality, large screens, a lot of manual options too.

[zio]

Leaksone, how much are you willing to spend?
anyway, i highly suggest the canon s90
full manual+RAW+fast f2 lens

the s95 just came out so i know there will be a huge price drop on the s90

[LeaksOne]

Well I plan on getting a credit card and putting a d90 and a better digital camera on it to build my credit so under 400 would be ideal.
