  1. Hi all,

     

    In the past few weeks I've been possessed ... I felt the uncontrolled able urge to bankrupt myself and laugh like a hyena while depleting my bank funds... :):D:):(

     

    My new EX1 with wide angle lens... :P and my MBP and Blackberry pearl...with 40" screen in background for editing... :(:)

    Have fun, more toys and fun are the objects of the game, and as the older toys prove they still assist in having fun also so it seems :(

     

    As long as there is enough money for any food (does not have to be good food, barely edible is fine) and beer (decent beer or better), you have done nothing wrong. (BTW, the food is optional.)

  7. Did the U.S. economic stimulus package make its way over there? :) Congrats on your new babies.

  8. How about posting some examples; of the bedroom stuff! :)

  9. LOL Dean, quit sleeping with the camera and computer and find a real woman.

  10. tsk Drew... silicone girls have needs too!

  11. Ha,ha... :lol:

     

    You all think your funny...Theres nothing wrong with a bit of solo shooting... ;) so to speak...

     

    Anyway I can't afford much else at the moment... This cams got more buttons than a singapore sweat shop !!! (joke before we get offended) but once again I will be damned if I'm going to read the manual... ;)

  12. Read the damned manual !! This sucker is gonna be a lot more complex than anything you've shot so far. Default settings are great but not the solution.

     

    Enjoy the new gear. Look forward to more of your work.

     

    Best,

    Mark.

  13. Read the damned manual !!

     

    Mark.

     

    :lol:;)

     

    Just kidding dad... its my main read at the moment...

     

    Just set the cam up and recorded something straight off the telly...Filled the frame with the TV and pressed record... Got a few mins off a coral reef and played it back...Hmmm not bad at all. No need to go out of my flat ;)

  14. Dean, congrats on the nice new toys, especially the EX1. Now a quick question, if you can answer it. Is the EX1 able to dial in white balance in 100°K or 200°K increments? Somewhere I thought I read that and just wanted to confirm.

  15. Those photos are about as close as possible that you can get to geek porn!! Very nice, very very nice..... !! :lol:

     

    Cheers, Simon

  16. Congrats Dean, sorry I wasn't any help, things were just too convoluted here.

    Can it store exposure details as meta data in the file or just for viewing in playback like our DV/HDV cams?
