mx 518 is good. i still use a razer copperhead. something from razer would be my suggestion. 1 year no questions asked replacement policy. just send them the mouse and they send you a new one. dont know if logitech does the same or if it as painless. really depends on how serious he is. a lot of kids that i used to play with (ones who played professionally for quite a while played with the free dell mouse that came with their desktops. mx518 is kinda boring looking. razer mice have cool led's. might be up his alley if he is into that sort of thing. i do have an old mx518 that i could pop in the mail for you if you like. it looks used but works just fine. i am not using it anymore. wired > wireless. no dead batteries when you are about to get the perfect hs on some asshole. or latency issues. very annoying when you finally find time to wind down and kill some kids (online...) and your mouse battery is about to die out.

All Indians are essentially the same Matt. I love that show. Only wish they would substitute someone with a less annoying voice/pronunciation than penny. Can't stand the way she talks but the show is funny enough to make me tolerate her.

Great pictures Haj. Some interesting lights I saw at a burger joint (Burger Fi) which wasn't particularly good. 5 Guys and Le Tub still winning.

Congratulations to you and yours Chris

played around with the sunset picture but couldn't get the sun to come out with clean outlines without undoing what i wanted to do with the photo - make it dark so just the outline of the truck were visible but still have the sun stick out. thoughts/suggestions in general are welcome.

Happy birthday sirs!

another thing ive noticed is the automatic metering. the camera said this was at 0ev but i distinctly remember it being lighter around there. ive had similar experiences with pictures i take out in the sun where there is plenty of light. they all seem to come out a tad darker than they "should?" did nothing to the attached file. just converted to jpg in lightroom and reduced size by 50%. the white wall seems beige. the red doesnt seem to "pop" as it does in real life.

tooling around with the nex 5 and the 35mm zeiss. was trying to see if i could get any dust to show up but nice and clear sensor.

i haz a clean sensor. i haz a happy. thanks knuckles. it only really showed up at around f11 And beyond but knowing there was dust there prevented me from using the camera as much as i had been. now it goes back in the daily ensemble.

happy birthday sir!

if you pop the irrational pills and take a batshit crazy cocktail, you might as well go for the m9 :evil:

Just get an nex 5 and some leica/zeiss glass and be baller. Should only have to extend that budget just a wee bit.

ordered. thanks.

I got mad dust on the nex 5 sensor. Self cleaning don't work. blowing air just reseats the dust. I got it on FM so Sony says $100. Any thoughts?

Happy birthday sir

glad everyone is safe and sound.

summicron 50mm f2 dr traded for the nokton 50mm

shelly, have you considered an extension tube? i just got one to play around with for the nex 5 - just wanted to see what it did and whether i enjoyed looking at pictures of things that up close. the ones with electronic contacts get expensive but the one i got is just an empty plastic shell - cost me $10. couldnt really not give it a try even if i never use it again. while not really a macro lens, it just moves the lens farther away from the sensor resulting in vaguely similar results. havent had much time to play around with it but initial toying around yielded some surprising results. following were shot with the nex 5 + zeiss 35mm. all hand held in piss poor light so shutter speeds were ~1/30 secondsish.

lol i love, "all the buttons in the right position...unless you are a canon user..."

happy mother fucking birthday sir.

happy birthday laine! hopefully all is well.

i could be used as the missing link in the evolutionary chain. having never had metal bracelets i think the yearning is born of just not ever having had one. i dont know if i would actually like one or not, again, because of never having had one.
