Missed out on the marshmallow ghosts 7" this year I think. If anyone wants to get rid of it, send me a pm

this is good

I get it like once a year as a special occasion. I really enjoy it, but it is expensive and makes you fat. Anyone else find that good thin crust outside of chicago is just as hard to find as deep dish. Everywhere that tries to do thin crust make it an artisan flat bread, or NY style which is floppy as hell, or they just do hand tossed. Crispy thin crust is choice. 

 

Where do you live? I've found a couple of really authentic NY style slices (and I'm from NYC). Jimmy's Pizza Cafe on Foster and Lincoln is the best by far

Lots of photos of city life. 

nikon sensors are actually made by sony so maybe we should just all buy sony dslrs lol

 

 

also heres a link to a side by side comparison between the 5dmkiii and the d800

http://www.cameralabs.com/reviews/Canon_EOS_5D_Mark_III/Canon_5D3_vs_Nikon_D800_noise.shtml

 

 

There's a rumor that Canon and Sony struck a deal for them to get Sony's sensors as well. 

 

Here's a quote pulled directly from the site you linked, under "Verdict / Scores" (I've marked notable parts in red)

 

Impressively if you shoot in RAW and turn off noise reduction, you'll also find the D800 delivering similar degrees of noise as the Mark III when viewed at 100%. So when it comes to stills, the D800 delivers more detail than the Mark III without compromising noise.

 

Moving on, the D800 has more sophisticated metering (91k sensor versus 63-zone), a faster flash sync speed (1/250 versus 1/200), a popup flash with wireless flash control, deeper bracketing (nine frames versus seven), a choice of crop modes including a 1.5x option for video, clean HDMI output (for feeding an external recorder), a shutter block rated for 200,000 versus 150,000 actuations, the ability to AF with a limited number of points at f5.6 to f8, built-in timelapse and interval timer options, and a USB-3 port (versus USB-2 on the Canon). The D800 also claims to exploit the speed of UHS-1 SD cards, although in my tests the flush times of the Canon were often quicker, even taking file sizes into account.

 

 

In its favour, the Canon EOS 5D Mark III has a more sophisticated AF system (61-points with 41 cross-type sensors versus 51-point with 15 cross-type sensors), faster continuous shooting at the maximum resolution (6fps versus 4fps, although the Nikon can be boosted to 6fps in its 16 Megapixel DX mode with the battery grip), much faster flushing of the buffer, two stops higher maximum sensitivity (102,400 ISO versus 25,600 ISO), a wider screen which matches the shape of images, thereby maximising their displayed size and detail, silent control over aperture and other settings while filming video (the D800 only has aperture control buttons which become inactive when recording), lower noise and less moire effects on video, and built-in HDR with three frames versus two.

 

 

 Compelling stuff, but personally I'd still go d800. Glass won't help you where the Canon suffers v Nikon. 

 

I'd def go Canon though, if I were into video at all, they blow nikon out of the water on that front

12,8 is more than enough for a club show.

 

go with the 70d. just go with canon in general. nikon lenses don't open up any more than f1.4, its a pain in the ass trying to shoot low light with a nikon when canon's got the 50mm f1.2.

 

The flip side of this is that Nikon's sensors are far superior to Canon's and function much better in low light. 

 

Both have their pros and cons. I'd rather have Nikon's beastly sensor than have one expensive ass piece of glass thats limited to 50mm and isn't that sharp at f1.2 - you can get the same quality by bumping up the ISO on a Nikon and using a cheaper piece of glass or stopping it down for more sharpness

Any chance you can copy and paste the list on here?

The formatting wouldn't work and it'd be a lot of work.. You can view the link on mobile as well I'm sure..

Are you located in Germany? As you're owning a particular number of german records! I'm quite interested in the United nations selftitled would you mind selling it for a reasonable price?

Not located in Germany, but my girlfriend is German so I've been a few times!

I'd be alright selling it at a reasonable price!

So uh, yeah. I'm selling a lot.

Here's the link to my updated record list. It's very detailed, so let me know if you have any questions. 

 

I'll take offers on a bunch, but I won't sell any Portugal the Man, Empire! Empire!, or the Converge Axe to Fall shards. 

 

Happy looking! 

i always shoot with my wb on "cloudy" - gives everything a warm feel.

 

i especially like it in the winter. with snow or no snow. something about giving dead earth a warm tone.

 

Why don't you shoot in RAW so you don't have to worry about WB and just adjust in post? I never set a WB, I guess cause I'd always forget to change it

where do you get those smoke bombs

I had a friend pick them up for me in Gary, Indiana

Thanks for the advice! All these were natural lighting. The second one was under a bridge she was crouching on, so the light was peering through and hitting her right in the face, hah.

 

As for the third, she was just brushing her hair away from her neck, it was a pretty candid moment.

 

Here's a similar one, same lighting. Straight off the camera, no edits.. Like it better?

 

 

The last one I'm pretty bummed about because I was shooting at f/1.4 which made everything super soft (we were underground and set off a smoke bomb that threw the autofocus off as well), but the background is something I want to play around with in other shoots

I did a few portraits over the weekend (free of charge) to practice since I rarely do them. Wanted to get your opinions. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I missed the focus on the last one, but I loved the blue/purple smoke in the background so I had to put it in there. 

 

What could I have done better, and which do you like? 

Oh! I already follow you. haha.

And I don't see your sig probably because you had a sports gif in it. My computer can't handle that sort of thing.

Yeah it had a sports gif but I took it out! What's your handle?

what is your instagram?

 

its not letting me link for some reason, but the handle is @edsonsoares

 

(there's also a link in my sig) 

I have been staring at that second photo for so long and so confused by the repetition of patterns of leaves on the bridge only to finally realize it is a mirror image? right? Pretty cool!

 

The last two are my favorites. Very moody.

 

 

Mirrored indeed. Nice catch! I didn't like the way the left side was, so I reflected the right

 

 

you rock the square format so well. something I can't do. those are awesome.

 

Thanks! I throw out so many images cause they don't fit the square crop. I guess I think Instagram is the way to get people to check out my stuff, so I cater to that.

Got some more stuff that I kinda like 

 

 

 

 

Did anyone get a second /100? Would kill for it. 

I think anyone that appreciates this thread would appreciate the band Raintree. Listen to their entire new full length here. If you're into it, pick a copy up here!

Love the art. Posting to remember.

Haha, thanks, I think it's the best picture I've ever taken. 

Looks like it's gone already. 

I've been really into architecture lately.. 

 

 

 

 

Pulled these off my instagram (explaining the square crop) 

Yeah I'm wondering if people with shirts have gotten them.. ?

So what's the deal? I haven't heard anything. I didn't order the book and they said they'd ship the record with the chrono trigger shirt like 2 months ago. Has anyone got theirs?

still trying to figure out how to navigate this thing. im @_incorporeal

 

I'm @jwforbes if anyone wants to follow me.

 

added the two of you.
