Drum Roll, Bracc got a new camera!

[bracconiere]

LOL, yeah i cleaned my drip tray after taking that

it's another $30 dollar bargain, but this one was probably $500 10 years ago! (got it used )

What................... no more blurry pictures?

Nice score!

funny thing this one is only 6MP, the other cheapo was 20MP! whatever though, this one takes a nice shot.

The cheapest camera I have is the GoPro Hero 9 black (bought new, not used). Otherwise I use either my phone, or pull out my digital SLR when I need to get serious. I have many times what you just spent invested in my digital SLR and related gear.

Your old camera must have been using a beer bottle bottom as a lens!

10 years ago it would have been bundled like an AOL CD....

edit: or damn, 20 years ago now, good old coasters?

Canon 1DS Mark III body with all L class lenses (f2.8 is the slowest), also with image stabilization. Even the 100mm macro lens I have came with IS. Body cost me over $6k by itself. IIRC, the cheapest lens was about $1200.

Looks like I might need to get some new batteries for it. Depending on how the older ones charge up (both depleted). At least they're lithium ion batteries.

yeah well, you ************ s can be happy now i scored a decent camera. and i won't have to listen to wise cracks anymore!


$6k for a pic on a drunk forum would be overkill!

Your kidding right!

 

[bracconiere]

at least that's ONE down!

It was used for so much more. I keep thinking about getting the latest version, since that also does video (at least 4k) but I've been dumping too much $$ into my brewing gear this year to do that.

As for the cracks, it seems like you don't really know us.

 

[Beerstein]

Very nice. I've been meaning to dig out my macro lens and see if I can get some nice bubble shots.

the only thing i'm pretty sure of, this is a place i can hang out with other people that make beer! (and as soon as i have a properly carbed keg to pour a glass i plan on snapping a shot for the post a picture of your pint thread! looking forward to it, not just because i'm drinking flat beer right now either! lol)

 

[Golddiggie]

Suuure you're not drinking flat beer.

 

[bracconiere]

Suuure you're not drinking flat beer.

LOL, what, picture or it didn't happen?

edit: you know what, i take that as a challenge! i'm yanking my flat keg out and burst carbing it with 1.3ozs of co2, yes by weight, and putting it back in the fridge, and pouring a glass just for a picture!

 

[day_trippr]

Well, things are looking up. No more wooziness looking at dark blurrs trying to make out content.
Now, work on composition. "Framing Matters"

Cheers!

don't be a nag!

 

[IslandLizard]

That pic in #1 looks excellent. I can actually tell what you photographed, 2 taps coming out of a nuke plant.

What brand/model camera did you get? Can you take a picture of it?

 

[Konadog]

don't be a nag!

 

[bracconiere]

What brand/model camera did you get?

i'm not entirley sure, steady shot something....aparently it knows how to compensate for my delerium tremens?

 

[davidabcd]

listen to wise cracks anymore!

You sure that photo isn't from your old camera?
I'm just kidding. Looks good though I didn't know you were famous for taking bad photos.

if you're trying to make fun of me, the critters teethe are to straight, got to give him some bucks, and a snaggle!

They weren't bad photos, they were the most excellent blurry graphs.

 

[bracconiere]

yeah well, i avoided it....but the few pictures i did post were horrible....

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

Cheers! Here’s to focused images.

 

[bracconiere]

i was thinking my last shots of my grain mill were bad too, which is why i assume someone asked me "if it works, why get a new one?"...lol here is some good pics!

and if you're wondering about the nails and screws and stuff, it's so my 5 gallon bucket that i took a 3" holes to to make a 20lb hopper out of doesn't fall off while milling.....

edit, and yes i had to drill a couple holes in a hax saw blade to get the adjustable roller to not go crooked on me!

 

[bracconiere]

keep in mind that bad boy has been in service once a week for almost 20 years!

 

[Konadog]

OK, now your just showing off your bad a$$ photography skills!

i assume you mean that litteraly? lol i did burst carb my keg with 1 or so ozs of co2....need to wash my glass so i can take a shot! (because it's empty!)


(sorry if i'm beating this to death, but for a $30 new to me toy....milk it baby! )

 

[bracconiere]

damn, head was watery, not impressive at all....but i could pass as a bud commercial!
