  1. <p>It is fitting especially in today's US economy. One of my fave photographer... </p> <p> https://www.yahoo.com/news/eugene-richards-below-line-living-193809332.html</p> <p>Below the Line: Living Poor in America<br> <strong><a href="http://bronxdoc.org/exhibitions" rel="nofollow" data-rapid_p="93" data-ylk="itc:0;elm:context_link;">Bronx Documentary Center</a> (BDC) Oct. 1 through Nov. 6, 2016.</strong></p>
  2. <p>Boy, the situation sucks. That's (shipping and custom) the reason I don't buy or sell internationally... </p>
  3. <p>This may be a dumb question, but I didn't see it above. If you are in Poland, how did you pay if you didn't using a credit card or pay pal? just curious?</p>
  4. <p>In cases like this, I'd check the usual possible screw ups...if no good, I'd just do a reset. </p>
  5. <p>At times, one has to be extremely selfish. One ex told me (that she was extremely selfish of me) early on our relationship and it prevented many, many problems while it lasted... </p>
  6. <p>I agree, there's more at her site. The subject of exploitation is always there for argument with pj/documentary photography, or even street. The homeless is probably the easiest to exploit, but I think it's difficult to know one's true intention... </p>
  7. <p>Ah, help me out here. Unless one is filming some science based research project of sort, what or when would one need 960fps? Faster AF (0.05) and more focusing points would be the other major upgrades, it seems. I'm not missing anything vital or misread anything, correct? </p>
  8. <p>They are great, but they are more like PJ work than street to me, not that there's a big distinction. It's very nuance for me. They are more portraitures to me, like what Brad~ does. I personally don't like the subjects looking right at the lens/shooter all the time. Or, them knowing I'm shooting at/of them, it may enhance the dramatic effect, but also less natural imo. <br> </p>
  9. <p>60mm f2 macro tamron, tokina 12-24mm f4, nikon 35mm f1.8 </p> <p> </p>
  10. <p>I don't know...any good photog can shoot with most cameras and still come up with a good series. What's relevant in 1976, 2006 or today are just great pictures, the camera matters little.</p> <p>nevertheless great link:)</p>
  11. <p>One day, the cell phone will have a micro beam app for heating up, say, a burger and coffee. It shouldn't be all that difficult, they are self imploding already:) Just channel the heat into a burn beam via the flash light function...</p>
  12. <p>Buy a leica...if you somehow don't like it, you can sell it and get your money back, and maybe more...just wait for a decent priced one. At worst, you lose maybe 5-10%...think of it as renting a leica. Hell, I still have a M2 if you want for cheap...what's your budget again? </p>
  13. <p>>>>I've shot film before when i was a kid. just, because leslie was not sure, I'm a Physicist.<<<<br> <br> What, physicist can't be hipsters? Are you discriminating physicists in the realm of hipsterism? I have mainly three hipster friends. Carpenter/dancer/cyclist, physicist turned philosopher, and musician/hardware guy. They are my friends, first and foremost, but I do consider them hipsters. They didn't care much about photography then. but now they talk of different films pushing and mixing coffee developers and such...<br> <br> Anyway, just do what you do...worry not about name calling. Usually, i'm just messing with newer shooters;) <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> </p>
  14. <p>I'd consider the g1 a manual focus camera. Yes, it has AF, but my eye and thumb coordination would be faster than the slow G1 in anything but great lighting...even then, it'd be a close contest:)</p> <p>...and thanks to hipster film shooters, (perhaps like yourself) old rangefinders pricing has gone way up, I've heard. Use a slr, it's just a tool... </p> <p>my film rf of choice is the hexar af...tho fixed 35mm!</p> <p> </p>
