Hi Guys,
I really don't get the change to do much more than skim through post
these days and rarer still post any pics however I was in the middle
of a big edit and I spied a quick grab shot I made the other night
during a job. The scene just caught my eye so I caught it with the
camera.
Buy yourself a nice new lens and give the cardboard box to the cat. You'll
both be cheered up :)
FWIW our goldfish didn't care much for a laser pointer either.
Cheers,
Dave

Actually it seems that Human's haven't evolved in about 10,000 years.
Actual evolution requires death before reproduction, and even the most
primitive societies can keep all but the most sickly of their members
alive long enough to reproduce.

When you use a wireless remote the camera turns off the anti shake
system automatically. That's not a bad thing, after all at that point
the camera is probably on a tripod, or at least a flat surface. What is
stupid is that the camera stops reporting the input focal length in the
EXIF data.
