Don't those go for like $120000 or something like that and there are 12 of them in the world or something. Only major journalism agencies have access to them (I think Sports Illustrated has 3 or something like that). I remember once seeing a website where they hooked up one of those onto some...

I'm trying to build this thing (guitar distortion pedal) http://generalguitargadgets.com/diagrams/rodentsc.gif http://generalguitargadgets.com/diagrams/rodentpl.gif And I had basically all of the parts except for the opamp and have allready soldered most of them on (making this on...

Yep, I only delete them if they're way over/underexposed or out of focus (or if theres a series of them with slightly different compositions and stuff and theres one I dont like...). In 2 years of having my Powershot G5 I've got about....4gigs of photos (most off that is on CDs now though)...

Heres my go at it. Canon Powershot G5 with the remote capture software (though I used the intervalometer thing for the first one here because I didn't have any computer...sucks, only 1shot/minutes and 100 shots max in a row...). You'll probably need Divx/Xvid/whatever...

On camera flashes are pretty dull. They dont have much of a use other than slightly brightening up something directly in front of you, not good as real flash. Flashes that you can point around and such rock, much softer light if you bounce it off of something...

I just use the My Pictures folder and dump there into folders by the date the pictures was taken (Canon's software does that...)

I've got something like that. Its ok for my digital camera but for anything with a lens you could take off its not enough IMO, some goes for an external flash.. As for the film....for landscapes any other things that aren't moving a lot you'd want something with fine grain...

Canon Powershot G5 Its pretty good

Gentoo and debian. Though you need a decent net connection. Otherwise slackware doesnt seem bad. I didnt try many other ones. Mandrake sucks.

I took some photos of the venus thing. Only used 2 ripped apart floppies to take the photos, turned out ok for being cheap. And my Powershot G5 doesnt have amazing zoom capabilities

You REALLY could have saved those as jpegs...and if you dont have any programs www.irfanview.com

Enemy Territory

Quake 3...and thats it

Halflife is $10 either way. Get the game :)

Try hitting it :D For real though, I've heard people fix it by changing through all their weapons

Well if you have a camera that can do bulb just hold the shutter until you get something. My Powershot G5 can do 15 second exposures but then it needs about 20 seconds to unload all the data so I often lose stuff while waiting :( I need to see if if I can do shorter stuff too

that would be kernel. Gentoo is a pretty good idea, its rather advanced but documented well enough to guide you through an install. As for windows networks : samba

I've been messing around a bit for the past few days and I'd say I learnt the most from Gentoo (though I couldnt pull everything off :( I'll try again soon though). RIght now I've settled for Debian

Well for being free Open Office is pretty damn good. I learnt how to use Word at school but I've found that everything that I could do with word I can also do with OO

I've got the feeling that my mosue feet are worn up, but I dont really care...it seems that the cheapo mice survive better because they have harder pads..

doesnt matter IMO

It seems to be 1024 but I registered to get 2048kbit.

I got broadband (DSL) a week ago and after a day I got a 486 working as a router with freesco. Things work great except a few certain sites, just load up really slow...well the sites respond to ping fine but I've found out with Lynx that they just start loading REALLY slowly (like 3 bytes per...

Canon Powershot G3 / G5 are still pretty good. I have a G5 and it works great. Apparently the G3 has better image quality because the extra megapixel on the G5 is crammed onto the same sized sensor...

My old yasica is fucked up :( Well what I did: set the left dial to the ISO of the film i'm using, chose either one thing: apeture or shutter speed depending on what I want, look at the meter in the viewfinder and adjust one of them until it reads ok edit: black ring on that lens = apeture...

You can print from the comptuer. I dont think you could printer from the camera directly, it has a USB port on the front but apparently its for connecting it to laptops and stuff (its that larger square port, like the one at the back to hook it up to the computer instead of the regular USB port...

You know your obsessed with case modding when you: dream about it

I have a hp photosmart 7660. Makes great 6x4 prints from 1600x1200 or higher pictures. Apparently its ink hungry though... and the built in flash card reader is pretty neat too

I'm thinking that if you used a higher apeture only the really bright parts of the fireworks would come through and the smoke wouldnt be as noticeable....

I have allready posted in this thread but i cant be bothered to check if i havent allready deleted the pics off my server or anything... so:

I dont like the idea of progaming at all. Its just a game in the end... Sports are slightly different but...

Check on www.gamefaqs.com for a list of all the different ones (you need online play too to what I know, also you need to pull off some records on a few different races..).

Need For Speed: Porsche Unleashed Underground has the fancy graphics but it has been rushed as a game, if they took another month or 2 on it they could have made it better (actual AI isntead of cars driving 30kmph faster than you and catching up on your 20 second lead on the last lap, better...

I set up my camera on the tripod, zoomed in full (x4 optical, x4 digital...) and ripped apart 2 floppy disks to use as a filter in front of the camera to darken things. And the pic is actually only a cropped part of the full picture :P The sun is still a pretty small dot on the sky no matter how...

I like this one I took a few days ago

Try a higher ISO setting. Though even with 400 I sometimes need to use the flash inside. Outdoors its usually bright enough do things nicely with 50 or 100 (maybe 200 if its allready later...). I shoot prettymuch everything on apeture priority though......auto, whats that?!?

Did somebody say...lightning? with my Powershot G5 about a month ago: with my Yashica (that is now broken :( ) about a year ago Long exposure. Lighting by itself is bright, and since i doubt most people have reflexes fast enough to catch it you leave the shitter open...

edit: no sense at all

Recently I've prettymuch switched to linux. I installed knoppix on my harddrive and prettymuch havent used windows since except when people on the others computers in this house need to use the internet. This computer is working fine with dialup. I'm using KPPP with my ISDN modem on my serial...
