[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Yeah, now I'm picturing someone threatening me with some klingon-type weirdo circular axe...hmm.
am also deciding if I need to Spend All The Money, and buy a DSLR. Which I've been wanting, but have no skillz to use. Or if I should just go with a similar-to-my-broken-one cheapo basic camera for under $200. hmmm.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Thanks for the ~ma, y'all. I suspect I'm going to be stressed until I know something on Tuesday. Kitty continues to act as if nothing is amiss so I'm going with that.
meara, I'd love a DSLR. I suspect a good camera could aid in lack of skills. Scola might know a good one. He takes great pics.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
My one experience calling 911 after seeing a crime led me to realize I could identify the gun (esp the fact that, dude, yes, gun) better than the suspect.
Would this be the incident I think it was?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I wouldn't recommend anyone buying an SLR unless they understand why they need an SLR.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Yes, it was the Exciting American Crime, billytea! Wouldn't want you to leave the States without observing freerange Crime. By what I assume was a bipedal mammal.
Chi, I forgot to type but I am ma~ing for your kitty and you. Quick and easily treated answers.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I really need to learn how to use my DSLR. I've been using a non-digital SLR for years, and I need to learn what the digital one does differently, and what sorts of features it has.

I got mr. flea a DSLR (a Nikon D40) for his 40th birthday, and I don't know anything about cameras, but it takes awesome pictures even when I use it.

Well, my thought being that often I can't take the pictures I want with the cameras I've had (ie, stage photos during drag shows). ...the only problem being I don't actually know how to take them with a better camera, I just know it's possible. I'd have to figure that part out.
In the meantime, I definitely want a camera for going to Peru...and the LCD screen on my current one cracked, while in Prague.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't actually know how to take them with a better camera, I just know it's possible
You need to work out why you can't take them. If zoom, for instance, then an SLR with replaceable lenses will help. But if it's lighting or camera shake there are other issues at hand.
