    I can think of a lot of features I’d put above projector to have in a camera. It’s like they are just picking scraps of paper out of a hat.

    Well it is a Nikon….

    But personally, I think it could be fun in a P&S, even though I know some people would abuse it. In the DSLR, yeah, not so much.

    olavf: You mean a link like U-Man has in his post? Guess it isn’t a problem.

    Yeah, I went ahead and did it too.

    U-Man Kat and I had way too much fun taking those too

    My brain is fried today. What was the ruling on explanatory videos?

    Not my work, but the inspiration for my shots this week.

    I did your survey, but only because I already abuse Gallery.

    Can I get jalapeno poppers from Jack in the Box instead?

    More than two seems kind of excessive for this sort of theme.

    I’d assumed one, but I might be able to come up with another by Wednesday.

    A quick search says that the Super isn’t compatible with digital backs. The M645 AF’s may be, and the AFDs are.

    They’re pretty bloody expensive too.

    But honestly. I’d see if I could get the left-hand doughnut on the bottom more in focus. Otherwise, awesome.

    I suspect 2/2 is going to be too subtle this week. Oh, well. It was fun.

    Awww you kids! Lmao at olavf though.

    Yeah, fortunately she has a lot of patience, otherwise I’d be afraid to go home tonight… It’s awfully easy to be a smart-ass from 20 miles away 😉

    I’m thinking about retooling it so it can be a little more versatile – shouldn’t be difficult to make it motion sensitive (motion detectors use IR) and possibly sound sensitive.

    He’s already got a later version of something he calls a “Camera Axe” with additional triggers, very controllable. Can fire camera or flashes based on sensor input.

    Lol, yeah that’s even fancier than I was thinking.

    Now to find a few suckers to go in with me on the project…

    Kat: Keep up the good fight–glad you’re doing ok!

    Good stuff, orionid!

    I’ve got one I shot yesterday and I have a couple more ideas I’m going to try to shoot today. In the interest of full disclosure, however, my 30D only has a 10 second self-timer, so I’ve had to set the timer, then let 8 seconds run out on it before starting my run. But I think that’s in keeping with the spirit of the rules.

    FWIW, Kat’s 20D has the same issue. It was fun watching her try to count that high 😉

    I had to explain to my co-workers why I had a knot on my head from running away from my camera and into a tree.

    “Well, you see, there’s this photo contest on the internet…”

    oh, ouch! haha :/

    I thought I was bad for standing on the berm outside the office taking pics of the overpass construction for days on end
