<p><em>External drive capacity:</em> <strong>500 GB</strong><br>

<em>Size of photography files:</em> <strong>50 GB</strong> (presently only in external drive) </p>

<p><em>Laptop hard drive: </em><strong>80 GB</strong> (in 4 partitions)</p>

<p>How do you manage this scenario?</p>

<p><em>Note: Previously I had 160 GB hard drive on laptop which got stolen. This issue came up when I had to buy the current one. </em></p>

<p>Maury. Yeah :)</p>

<p>John. LOL. You are a great man :)</p>

<p>Can we categorize cameras as <em>cult </em>cameras?</p>

<p>If so, then which may fall under this head?</p>

<p>Whats so special about this pic. See without your mind knowing that it was so for that much $$$s and then analyze.</p>

<p>Another one</p><div></div>

<p>Another....</p><div></div>

<p>Here are couple of pictures from Rollei 35 with minor adjustments in Photoshop using Nik Software.</p><div></div>

<p>David, Nikkor 18-55 and 28mm. I have Tamron 28-300 but I think it would be much for me.</p>

<p>Maury and Stephen thanks for advise and encouragement :)</p>

<p>I am going to historical city Sukkur (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sukkur) (http://www.sukkur.gov.pk/) for couple of days. I am taking along <strong>a)</strong> Nikon D60 with lens,<strong> b)</strong> Olympus Trip 34, and <strong>c)</strong> Rollei 35. Means 1 digital and 2 films.</p>

<p>Just want to know would it be OK or would be burden to carry?</p>

<p>~ Riz</p>

<p>I have just bought two packs of Fuji ProPlus II 200 (containing 10 films in total). So will they be going to fridge or freezer?</p><div></div>

<p>I guess Rollei 35 would fit in.</p>

<p>Thanks Steve. JDM I will try my best to arrange them for free :) Marc I found your website before getting your response, good work :) Nice pic Mark. Yes Mike will try to do that. Thanks Kayam, pic of the camera is here :)</p><div></div>

<p>Just walking by on downtown busy street in Karachi I entered into one old camera pawn/repairing shop and suddenly my eyes got stuck on one small chrome camera. I was Rollei 35! It was great feeling to hold that in hands. It felt like a beautifully crafted piece. And it surely is apex of German technology.</p>

<p>I checked the camera, its was in perfect working condition. All apertures and speeds were working fine. The meter cell was missing (after buying, I put cell and meter is also OK).</p>

<p>The shop owner didn't want me to haggle on price, it was fixed and I bought it in 23.50 USD.</p>

<p>When I came back home and Googled for the images I found just two issues with the Rollei I bought:</p>

<p>1) The film advance lever is not original<br>

2) The rewind know besides viewfinder is missing.</p>

<p>Now I am looking for the original film advance lever and rewind knob.</p>

<p>Any idea how it was done?</p>

<p><strong>Linda</strong>: I got you, will revert back to old for. You are right about the white space.</p>

<p><strong>Frank</strong>: I am not royal and it has nothing to do with my country. Its European and may be it has some history with you. I have not put it for being pompous, its just because I like it.</p>

<p><strong>Lex</strong>: Sure, I can explain if someone has query in mind his/her mind for the crest.</p>

<p><strong>Joshua </strong>- Well it is a backup cell number and in our part of the world its OK to provide more than one :)<br /><br /><strong>Don </strong>- Please see the revised layout<br /><br /><strong>Steve </strong>- Please see the revised layout<br /><br /><strong>Vick </strong>- I have removed the bottom area, please see the revised layout<br /><br /><strong>Linda </strong>- Please see the revised layout<br /><br /><strong>Lex </strong>- Well I think I am old-fashioned, I like the crests. But please let me know what are the disadvantages in putting that.</p><div></div>

<p>As expected, valuable advise and comments. Thank you all.</p>

<p>I will surely work on the inputs but it seems board has been divided in two segments: <em>Balanced vs. Not-balanced</em>. But I hope I will work it out.</p>

<p>Good day to all!</p>

<p>Hello,</p>

<p>I have designed a layout for my photography visiting card. Would be grateful if you kindly give your input on that.</p>

<p>The crest would preferably embossed (depends on cost). Also please give your views on the services I have mentioned on the right hand side.</p>

<p>Thanking you in anticipation.</p>

<p>Regards,</p>

<p>Hi,</p>

<p>Should there be any signature on the prints for exhibition? If so then where? Front bottom or on the back of the frame. And what signature consists of? Only name or some other info also?</p>

<p>Regards,</p>

<p>Riz</p>

<p>People please take it easy, there is no harm in appreciating the photographs - keeping aside the history thing.</p>
