Haha, thank you.

For a cheap and fantastic lens for the film camera, the 50mm f/1.8 AF-D something you`ll need. It`s around $100 new.

I really like this one!
How do you get this effect? is it just the lens?

what lens did you use though, it looks like it distorted the picture a little bit almost like a fisheye...

maybe it's just the angle?

I used the stock 18-55 lens that came with the camera. Yeah, it's probably with the way I angled the camera a bit. haha

big pictures are big.

I dig the third one, and the lighting on all of them is rad.

Some Olympus film camera, I'll get more details on it later. I love it, shoots awesome pictures, and yes bring your camera. Mine doesn't shoot action very well.

i use my dads sony ox350 camera or something and i hardly know anything about photography, i can never take a picture in a dim lit room. It makes me use the flash, but the flash makes everything too bright, so i take it off. But without flash the shutter sort of freezes for a second and the pictures come out all discolored and weird.. i wish i new how to make all these cool effects some of you guys do. I read the manuel but its confusing! Manual. Not a mexican.

I'm going to repost this.....just because it was on the last post of the last page and I'd really like to get some opinions on it.

Crappysurfer · 11-10-2008, 09:21 PM

not a great shot but its a cool frank gehry building near my school

my roommate, just fooling with different shots

ridesnow. · 11-11-2008, 04:42 AM

^^ Frank Gehry stuff is so rad.

Carver, that shot is cool, i like the texture on the sweater and the hair. Maybe up the contrast a bit? I dunno, just a thought...

[QUOTE=Basch;1297255452]2 old pics with my sony dsc-h2.

did you use a slow shutter speed and big aperture?

ridesnow. · 11-11-2008, 03:48 PM

^^ it apears that way.

here's one i forgot about, scanned it today.

Anyone have experience with the casio ex-fh20? I was going to get a regular point and shoot camera (sd880) because I could also take videos, but then my dad found that camera. I dunno if the casio is any good except for the fact that it can shoot 40 pictures a second and other high speed stuff. It's also a CMOS and the cannon sd880 is ccd.
