      I have one of the aftermarket IR thingies, works on every Canon I have plugged it into.  Unfortunately not my X-Pro

        Sometimes in life, we get talked about behind our backs by people who should know better. Maybe if these people brought their issues to us, or chose to discuss them publicly, they would see how wrong they are?

        Apologies for being cryptic, not something I want to go into, just feeling the need to rant and this looks like the place  😠

          ^ right place, right time buddy…so rant away!

          it's actually pretty easy to do a waywt with a prime lens WITHOUT someone taking the shot or WITHOUT a remote to get the focus right! all I do is…

          • turn the camera body sideways so that you don't have to step too far away just to have everything in the frame!

          • "mark" the spot where you want to stand by focusing that spot using AF!

          • turn camera body as far up so that the marked/focused spot is down at the bottom when looking through the camera (should be the spot where your boots Birkies gonna be!)

          • switch lens to MF & set timer (10sec.)

          • go to said marked point and wait till camera takes the pic(s)

          • done 😉

              Anyone experience stuff shipped ems from another country to the US? It was shipped on the 11th. All tracking says is accepted! In the 11th, now it's the 16th! It is supposed to take 4-6 days.. You would think there would be any other tracking update!? It's coming from Thailand

                    @Nerkg from Australia it can take between 1 and 3 weeks. I shipped 2 items to the same state, that weighted within 500gms of each other, yet the delivery period was 2 weeks different :|

                      Wow snowy. Thanks. So there's no consistency.. If I track it through Thailand tracking it says it is in Allentown and out for delivery since Friday?! I don't even live in Allentown , it's an hour away, and usps tracking says nothing more than that it was accepted in Thailand

                            Just last night I had a crazy dream that I absolutely have to share with you…
                            For some reason, I was in a hardware store where a friend of mine had (foolishly) left to the cash position a pair of my jeans (my 634sr, now very rare. Don't know way he did something so thoughtless, but you know, dream-logic...).
                            The clerk tells me lost them!
                            At the time I was in disbelief, then began to mount in me in a devastating rage. I started to disassemble the store piece by piece.
                            At one point jumps out a package with a pair of jeans inside. They was not my 634sr, but a couple of  dime pre-distressed stupid Levi's! One of those "Engineered" models they launched back in the late '90. I was desperate, but all of the sudden, in the back pocket of those Levi's I found the the true owner's I.D. and stuff!
                            "Ah!", I said to the clerk "good try, but these are not mine!".
                            So I continued to disassemble the store, spreading on the ground all the goods exhibited…
                            Then I woke up.
                            The memory of the dream was still alive in me later,  when, checking the mail, I found a message from G. who informed me of the availability of IHSH-78 ...

                                Apparently the "NO SOLICITING" sign on top of my "DOG ON PREMISES" sign isn't enough of a clue…I think I need a "SOLICITORS WILL BE FED TO DOG" sign

                                  How about a sign that says

                                  "Don't waste your time, Doug lives here"

                                  That should sort it….

                                            I plan to never be caught with a single pair of boots again, my 405's bit the dust and am currently without. I am hating life right now and my feet and knees are killing me wearing my running shoes all day for the last two days. 😠

                                            Let this be a lesson learned to spend an ample amount of money on quality boots as well, sounds like a good excuse to me at least.
