kwazy, how much was it? The cameras are getting fatter ><.

... I forgot. She told me this afternoon but I wasn't paying attention, I was too OOOOOOO at the camera. I'll ask tomorrow.

The SD1k is my camera, the IS is for the parents, lol.

^i have a sd1000 too and my dad just bought my mom a sd750is off dell and he has an A620. WOOT canon Pride .. along with my old trusty a40 also! who need SLRS gosh ;)

It was $350US.
the 5x optical zoom is wow. most other cameras are 3x.
just wish it was a wider angle, 28mm like the 800/870is

I was thinking of buying it, but it's not full frame. I might get the Sony 35mm f1.4G.

my camera is too new. :(
now to wait for a package to be made for the sd890.

Have a question regarding law.

Maria is planning to have a wedding and her father offers to pay for much of it. He enters an agreement with John for that day and pays him the fee of 5 grand in advance. Despite being the greatest photographer in Vancouver, John is a bit disorganized and forgets to attend her wedding.

So can Maria sue John?

Well, I believe Maria has the right to sue John since they already entered a contract and her father paid John his fee in advance. John simply forgot about it so that would be his fault. He can't refund Maria's father back the $5000, since he didn't go to the important day. So the only option is for Maria to sue John.

This is what I can think of, but is there other options that pop out?

I'm no lawyer, but I'd think the only one that could sue John would be the one whose name is actually on the contract. If that's Maria's father, he'd have to be the one to sue. If John refunds the $5k though, I don't know the father would have a lot of legal recourse.

The law doesn't care what the job was, or how important it was to either party. All it sees is that a contract was entered for John to provide a service in exchange for a certain amount of money. The service wasn't performed, so the money should be returned, end of story.

So which are you, Maria or John?

Thanks, I am neither Maria nor John, just a question for class.

who got wii fit!? i know domani did ;)

I got one!

It's pretty good. My Wii Fit Age is 25 :D

my starting age is 29! :( dunno where i am at now, lol

well the lens is ment for digital bodies, so it's the equivalent to a 50mm.

What have you been up to jason? Havn't talked to you in a while lol... Are you still going to school?

We should have a photo meet. I'm pretty sure I could use the club I work at and get some models together. I also have a lot of lights and modifiers we could use (that apparently don't exist with pictures of them).

What would the interest be?

^ I was waiting for something to break!

I used to be able to do all that with a hackey sack, but a soccer ball? that's a way different story! lol Is that Ronaldo from Portugal?

Yep, that's the one!

Going to Peru on Monday!
 

Just wanted to let you know, now that you guys give a sh*t lol
It's my first "real" vacation since I got married in 2005. My wife and I are going to Peru to see her cousin get married there, then we're hiking to Machu Picchu... 4 day hike with a group of about 10 people. I'm hoping to lose weight which will motivate me to actually start working out when I get back.

Anyway, I'll see you guys in 3 weeks (back on the 17th)!

Peace :)

Macchu Picchu?!?!?! Damn, I'm jealous. TAKE LOTS OF PICTURES, AND POST 'EM!

Yes (and of course) sir! :D

Make sure you get there early, before the crowds.

Oh and don't die...

Some of the trails there are freaking scary looking, my brothers photos almost made me sick

Yeah, we're doing the 4 day hike with a tour so the big plus of that is that we will get there about an hour earlier before the "regular" crowd, so I should be able to get some good shots :)

Now, back to packing :p See you guys in 3 weeks :D

Woot got the SB600 today! Now I need some wireless triggers, which would you guys recommend?

Why didn't you just get the SB800 and use the camera's built-in wireless?
