I wish I still my old reel to reel tape deck.

Thanks Janice, and Good Morning! I actually did it before I saw your post listing the different types of communication you had in mind.

On a PC, you can right-click anywhere on the panel.

I watched the video, it doesn't go into much technical detail about the shot though.

They did, and he is indeed now a former employee. He claims to have just arrived in this country and didn't realize that it was an ambulance that he booted and that doesn't speak English. My question is, if he just got here (from somewhere in the middle east, judging by his name) and can't speak any English, how did he get the job in the first place?

Hopefully I'll get to go there someday.

WAY before cell phones

Take a look at this, rather impressive...

lol, I'm reading this and scratching my head thinking "wha??"
Thanks for the chuckle Cap!

Sounds like you have the "basic" module turned off. Right click on the right-hand panel and select "show all".

Had to share this...
From WWL News, New Orleans:

NEW ORLEANS - The Quicky's convenience store in Mid-City takes its parking lot rules seriously. Very seriously.
About 4 p.m. Friday, New Orleans paramedics rushed inside the store for a man with a life-threatening medical issue.
They worked on the patient with chest pain, put him inside the vehicle, then started to speed off.
The paramedics “heard a loud noise,” and the vehicle came to a screeching halt, according to Jeb Tate, spokesman for New Orleans Emergency Medical Services.
The medics stepped out and found a boot on their ambulance.
Convenience store employees allegedly put a restrictive parking boot on the ambulance. And now it was stuck.
The paramedics were perplexed.
Tate said the ambulance had its emergency lights on the whole time.
Store employees didn’t want to talk about it. They declined requests for comment.
Apparently one of the employees took the boot off. The tire was left flat.
And so the paramedics and the man with the emergency waited.
“We actually had to delay that patient's care by calling another ambulance out here to come transport this patient,” Tate said.
Signs on the convenience store make clear that parking is for customers only. The signs state: “If you leave the property for any reason your vehicle will be booted.”
But the paramedics apparently were there the whole time tending to a man with chest pains.
We called the telephone number on the sign, for the “Boot Man.”
A convenience store employee picked up, then hung up.
Tate, the EMS spokesman, said the agency has never had an incident like this before.
"As long as we have our lights on, we park where it is safe to park,” he added.

There is a very good thread on the subject here: http://www.uglyhedgehog.com/t-80227-1.html
Like fstop22, I usually expose at -1/3 to 1 stop with my Nikons.

I just got each of my sons a Jensen turntable for Christmas. They both would much rather listen to an album than a CD. I guess I raised them right, lol.

I tend to underexpose by about 1/3, and if in doubt, bracket.
After reading that article (thanks, Birdpix) it makes sense to go over slightly, as long as you don't blow the highlights. More data to play with can't be a bad thing, right? I'll be going out to try some tests this weekend, that's for sure!

LOL, Poor little Cannon's holding onto the back of that thing for dear life!
