    User profile shows most recent activity

    I noticed that I can see other users' most recent activity (under Statistics) on their profile page. There should be a privacy setting for this, and it should be recent activity not shown by default.

    Strange things seem to happen when I'm not at Paulaner Brauhaus. ;)

    House M.D. Season 6 Finale shot entirely using Canon 5D Mk II

    Erm, I'm a House fan too. The current season finale hasn't even aired in the US, so I'm not sure how you managed to watch it. :think: How did they shoot it? The director mentioned 24p, so I'm assuming that they shot using the 5D Mk II's video mode. (As I said, I'm not a Canon DSLR user, so I...

    D70 Primer/FAQ

    tecrec pointed out a dead link (thanks!), which I have removed. I'm surprised people are still finding this thread useful. I thought most people would have moved on to newer models already. My D70 is currently on loan to a friend, and it is still going strong!

    Any Tips & Advice for F1 ???

    I think he means that he got the general admission tickets lah. If you have a three-day pass, use Friday the same way that the drivers do - practice! Also should do what some drivers do, which is to take a walk around the circuit. You can scout out an ideal spot or get ideas for shots. (And go...

    P6000 out!

    To geotag your photos, of course! Why geotag your photos? So you always know where you took the photo. If you take hundreds of shots, trust me, this is useful even in a highly urban environment like Singapore. Have no idea about the P5100 and P6000 in comparison, but... The GPS is...

    How do Singaporean Pronounce Moet & Chardon?

    I've been to Domaine Chandon in Australia. The staff there said it is pronounced with the 't'. Couldn't remember why, but Wikipedia has the answer: Although Moet is a Frenchman, the name itself is Dutch.

    70-300 VR is very sharp

    A few possibilities: 1. You're shooting at 300mm at lot of the time, which is where this lens isn't so good in terms of sharpness. (Sharpness varies over the zoom range.) 2. To complicate the first point, sharpness also varies at various focal lengths depending on your aperture. If you go...

    camera bag recommendation?

    I don't consider Crumpler expensive because the material is durable, the padding is thick, and barring manufacturing faults, they last a long time. If you're willing to settle for less style, less durable and less padding, there's Bagman. I've seen it at a couple of shops in Queensway and...

    FHM Girl Next Door 2008 Roadshow @ Clarke Quay

    Some of these girls look quite different from their photos in FHM. I can't even tell who some of them are... how to vote? Hope there's another roadshow, but I doubt. P.S. Bros scandisk and leejay... this is not a criticism of your photography. In fact, your shots show the girls truly as...

    D300 clean image sensor

    Perhaps it is the user that helps the camera (regardless of model) to attract dust?

    Going to get D80, should I use this setup?

    Yup, the 18-200 is a really good travel lens. I also use the Tokina 12-24 f4 and the Nikon 50 f1.8. I was overseas recently, and more than 90% of my shots were taken with the 18-200. As the rest have said, don't carry too many lenses. Really depends on your priority though. If your holiday...
