I came here to post that, too!

I bet that will make Thom Hogan do a happy dance, and it could serve as the basis of a Nikon one-off.

That’s also just the thing for street photography- it doesn’t look as threatening as a DSLR rig.

For the Thom Hogan referenceless folks:

If it’s any consolation at all, the votes I get are almost invariably opposite to what I’d expect (the one I expect to get highest is lowest, the one I expect to be lowest is highest, etc.)

My thoughts exactly. Anyone else feel this way?

I’ve won a contest with a pic I thought was a throwaway entry. Go figure. (Passenger’s Side)

By my read, it’s better than a d300s for 600 bucks less.

I’ll sit this one out: I’m still at war with Flickr and busy investigating there.

Anything I’d put in would be phoning it in, I don’t feel like doing that.

This is supposed to be fun, and hopefully easy.

Being reduced to inchoate rage by arbitrary and stupid restrictions is *not* fun.

See my rant in the pub. I am completely sick of compromising my choices based on Fark’s inane and arbitrary file size limits FOR FILES THAT THEY DON’T EVEN HOST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hate that I’m currently en route to Delaware; I had intended to write my essay this weekend! Sorry, Mea Culpa.

I sort of imagine it ending up in something kind of steampunk, like this:

Now *there’s* a macro lens! by pjern, on Flickr

[SilverStag]

I want one to graft into my old 8×10 field camera body. That would be the impetus to get a lens for it, for sure!

[SilverStag]

That’s most excellent. Suck it, Nikon.

I agree that it’s most excellent, but was that last dig really necessary?

[SilverStag]

At 40 dollars I’ll be hard-pressed to buy even one.

I just resolved to not watch the voting this week because there’s stuff in that thread that’s miles beyond what I submitted. So as SilverStag says, this is a participation only week for me. 😉

I say that?

[SilverStag]

I can’t believe I forgot this one:

Orange downstream by pjern, on Flickr

That’s the trouble with having 20,000 photos on file, I can’t remember where they are any more – or what they are, sometimes.
