Camera news and views.
This thread is for bragging, complaining, and bitching about your camera and the one you wish you had. And editing software, before someone bitches that I forgot that.
The hottest camera of 2013 may be Canon EOS 5D Mark III $3,499.00

I've just reinstalled windoze and photoshop cs5. I have a webcam, my blackberry (5MP!!), and several old cellphones with built-in cameras.

Re: Camera news and views.
I found the new camera that came with my cellphone to be a huge improvement over the old one. I don't know if the brand or what, but I never liked the previous one.Făkünamę wrote:I've just reinstalled windoze and photoshop cs5.

Oooh, and helpful info. Leaves more room in the Shutterbugger's thread for pix and "Very cool!" posts.

Helpful tip #1: Don't get into photography.

Comparing specs, it looks like the Canon still has some catching up to do on the Nikon D800, and costs just about the same.Gawdzilla Sama wrote:This thread is for bragging, complaining, and bitching about your camera and the one you wish you had.

Both outta the park for me.

What I do would more accurately be called photo-manipulation.FBM wrote:Helpful tip #1: Don't get into photography.

Though I probably won't be doing much of that even. I just took on a large project to produce accurate 3d models of about 120 different cartridges, complete with photorealistic textures, and program correct ballistics of each, for a simulation. Should keep me busy for a while.

Re: Camera news and views.
Cartridges? What caliber? And what use are 3D models of cartridges? Or do you mean images of cartridges?

Re: Camera news and views.
Most commonly used calibres from .224 through to .50 (centrefire only). So far I've done the 22 Hornet, 218 Bee, and 219 Donaldson Wasp. I'm currently doing the 219 Zipper. Got a lot to go.
3D models are used in the simulator by the rendering engine (think video game).
