Be wary of very large card capacity. Shooting professionally, would
never go above 16 or 32 GB cards - they can go wrong!
I'm away shooting video for a week on a sailing yacht and will be taking
a series of 16GB cards with me, probably get through one a day I'm guessing.
YMMV

A remarkable gallery. It really shows the power of the Pano (margarine
excepted!). John's shot of the Snow Geese is quite astonishing - there must
be several thousand in the complete frame. Nice to see something close to

Actually I think it's a pseudo-French word invented by Russians. The

Bruce Sir, agree with you that the Lensbaby systems are awesome and
pretty desirable to own if one is looking for the occasional fun. But
beyond that it may become overdone and boring. And the system looks
too plasticky / toyish.

That's very interesting, thank you.
Since epatage is in an old slang dictionary, and described as 'populaire',
