Best, Stephen The really neat trick is how you manage to take pictures of the digicam with the digicam... *obviously*, he took a picture of a /photo/ of the digicam.... honestly, some people... :-) -- Mark McIntyre CLC FAQ http://www.eskimo.com/~scs/C-faq/top.html CLC readme: http://www.angelfire.com/ms3/bchambless0/welcome_to_clc.html ----== Posted via Newsfeed.Com - Unlimited-Uncensored-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeed.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 100,000 Newsgroups ---= 19 East/West-Coast Specialized Servers - Total Privacy via Encryption =--- |

For a small fee (well, OK, maybe not *so* small) I might be persuaded to reveal my innovative recursive technique. I learned it as a 6-year old, when my sister and I used our little cameras (she with a Brownie box, me with a VP twin) to take photos of each other taking photos of each other in order to see what would happen. Best, Stephen OT Stephen! But thankyou for sharing. g Funky Foam! (again) A bit of pvc plumbing pipe (lined with black funky foam) allows me to fit my unthreaded Sony P71 lens squarely (and on axis) onto 1.25" eyepieces. Without damaging anything. Though still handheld. I switch off the powersaving function (in the menu) to avoid that irritating premature withdrawl. I wish I could report that my images are now better than Kev's or Ian Kings's. But artists are born not made. I merely "dabble". Chris.B |
