Banish out of focus shots with PinPoint?
Using a green laser? Huh? Never intentionally shine the PinPoint into a person’s eyes, or stare into the laser beam. Never aim the PinPoint anywhere on any person without notifying them in advance. Sounds a bit of an (expensive) gimmick to me! Matt

Banish out of focus shots with PinPoint?
This would be a great help taking shots of aircraft etc. :evil: Interesting product, but a gimmick I think, and the less of these laser devices being used unnecessarily the better I think.

Banish out of focus shots with PinPoint?
The example image is pretty dreadful, but I also thought we already had focus assist lights in our cameras? Will a green light be better? If so, why to manufacturers always seem to provide red lights? Actually, come to think of it, if some of us are having problems focusing in low red (tungsten) ...

An universal focus assist device that will increase your proportion of 'keepers' in even the most challenging of circumstances (e.g. photographing a dragonfly in flight, allegedly). More details here Enter the manufacturers 'One that got away - if only I'd used a PinPoint' competition here...

Banish out of focus shots with PinPoint?
Possibly more useful for longer distance shots where the cameras' inbuilt focus assist cannot illuminate enough? but long distance shots in the dark? unless you're a pap I think the need would be minimal. K-r light is also green btw.

Be warned! Lasers can be very bad for your sensor's health!!
Not just 5D Mk II: I work in a laser lab at Johns Hopkins University, and I can say that Frank doesn’t know what he’s talking about. It’s not a specific brand or sensor problem, it’s a simple energy density/flux issue. The materials used in every CCD or CMOS sensor are essentially the same, Silicon...

Makes you wonder about the Pinpoint doesn't it? What if someone is using one across the room from you and your camera?

Anyone could be a professional photographer..... just look at the standard in mini-studios such as D&P shops and dept. stores. Some of the 100mm macro lenses that they used were on ebay a while back.... the apertures had all been glued in position at f/8 :shock: The professional photographer c...

Is Mifsuds Photographic dropping Pentax?
I have seen a few lenses advertised like that, but had no stock. Funnily enough the price went back to normal after 24 hrs with normal prices

I used it for a time, about the same time Firefox went to V4 . . . and was badly broken. Yes, it works fine. I particularly liked the EXIF plugin that shows EXIF data when you move your mouse pointer over an image. It's better than any available for Firefox for showing the basics. Their auto t...

I tried Chrome on my netbook for a couple of weeks and it worked fine, with two exceptions: It didn't get on well with AOL Mail and it wouldn't let me leave feedback on eBay (the "submit feedback" button didn't work, although I had filled in all the ratings and comments). The problem may lie with th...

I love chrome, it's really stripped down so you don't have all the guff you never really use on IE and to a lesser extent firefox. the add ons are usually handy and easy to manage as well. It's easy to switch back if you don't like it

I take it all back. After a bit of computer housekeeping, Chrome now works as expected with my AOL account. I haven't had a chance to check its functionality with eBay feedback but suspect this problem has also been sorted. It seems a lot faster than Firefox on my netbook. Apologies, Google. Al

I don't know Stefan, I may have a look at Chromium and see for myself. One thing niether have is the codde that reports back to Google allowing them to target you with adds.

Thank you Tim. Amazing, and disturbing photos. I'm sure I'm not enough of a photographer to be going towards the disaster to record it instead of running from it. We were on holiday in Aveyron at the time. We had been out for the day and came back to our house late. We switched on the TV to get t...

Apologies if my post has caused problems -that was never the intention.

So I am not blaming the rest...
