FracturedRabbit

Good luck finding a lens that would resolve that level of detail.

Go on Rabbit, you know you want one.

I do, but I have a 2010 Mac Pro with six drives, upgraded graphics and attached 27"monitor which would have to be lost. stolen or set on fire before I could indulge. I am working on those options.

"Finding Vivian Maier" is a recent documentary worth a watch. Second the recommendation for War Photographer; firmly confirming why I could never be one even if I had the skills.

When are we going to get the camera we all really want?

(Patent pending)

I'm very happy with mine.

Canon have had their moments. My 1D3 was recalled twice and never worked perfectly.

FR...I had a plain old 1D when they first hit the market...zero problems...ever...

except me geting used to Canonology. Was your 1D3 problem Canon wide or

localised to you & your area?

It was a design problem with the AF which they tried to fix with a worldwide recall to replace the mirror box, and then when that didn't work they offered another fix. Camera never worked adequately for tracking subjects, the 1d4 was a massive improvement.

Rob Galbraith did a lot of work in testing and highlighting the issue and thus forcing Canon to do something about it.

Having had the time now to take the 3.8 seconds required study the chart, my only conclusions are 1. Sony sales performance is a myth. 2. I think the K-3 may be the last consumer grade camera Pentax will make. Wouldn't be surprised if Ricoh just stick to the 645z and dump all the other lines. It appears Pentax now has no sales at all.

"It appears Pentax now has no sales at all." How can this be; they have you?!

Next month Olympus are introducing a micro four thirds camera which achieves 40 megapixels by shifting the sensor while the shot is being taken. Remains to be seen how effective it is, but at least they are innovating.

Sometime,

Buying cack off ebay when drunk is the most satisfying thing a person can do. But it's like the ugly bird in the morning syndrome. You wake up and she's not wearing any make up.

Sometimes the voice of experience rings loud and clear....

Domotica on Theppasit. Quality equipment and excellent service from the owner.

It's a hell of a good price for a 4K montior, plus you get a computer inside! Saw one in Bangkok, very impressive.

Don't know whether its true: working expats get a day off on Christmas Day in Bangkok?

I didn't when I worked there.

They will tax based on the value of the goods, irrespective of whether it is new or not, being a "gift" is irrelevant. They will be guided by the value stated by the shipper. If it is a low value item they won't bother, and even higher value items sometimes slip through. I received an old camera yesterday valued at $200 on the shipping and it arrived with no tax to pay. This made me very happy.

Checked in a few shops in Pattaya and they only have the 16GB version.

Will be in Bangkok next week and wondering if the 64GB version is generally available. Any information welcome.

Thanks

Put the name of your camera and the word "download" into Google.

It doesn't have to be cash, at least not at the Pattaya land office. I paid by cashier's cheque. If you are not exactly sure of the amount, take a cashier's cheque for the likely minimum and some cash for the balance.

When was that? Last year it was cash or no transfer.

July of this year.

I had a DP1 for a while. Nice files, but it was so slow and cumbersome. No fun, sold it.

Buffalo races are not over. they start at 1000 on Sunday.

Boat racing was on today and assume it continues tomorrow. The bikes are probably at the track on the far side of the lake.
