Between photography, film making, sound recording and cooking, I stay in a perpetual state of gas. B&H, Dominion Camera, Filmtools, Able Cine, Guitar Center, Chuck Levins, DSP Doctor, Sur LaTable, BB&B, and Williams Sonoma are always glad to see me coming. Its not always the high ticket items either. Widgets, gadgets, and accessories can drain the wallet also. Ten bucks here. Thirty bucks there. The only consolation is that I actually use everything I acquire. I'm sick... so sick... Oh hopeless me....d

The funny part is that as soon as you get it "fixed", someone with lesser gear takes a better photo.
And with a smartphone camera!

It can also mean the importance of something. Ex: A low gas factor means you don't Give A S--t.

One thing to be said about G.A.S. is that it is a chronic, but not fatal disease.

Just cured a recent attack by replacing my barely used D700 with a new D810. I feel so much better ! (Temporarily). By the way this also affects golfers as my garage could attest to.

Surely it can be treated if you win the Mega-Millions lottery. :D :D :D :D

I have a double case of G.A.S.
My significant other has taken to dSLR addiction.
So I'm to feed two addictions; hers and mine.
... for Christmas, she got a Manfrotto Pro Backpack 20:
Her birthday is 20 days away; so the 14-24 (2.8) Lens I have stashed will have a home
and so it goes...
