Here is an excellent legal opinion from a Syracuse Law professor outlining how strange a case Bragg has compiled. Personally, I think the strategy is to get Trump into a court and hope an anti-Trump jury is too dumb to follow the complexity of the charges.

And it keeps Trump off the campaign trail. But the things they are doing seem to be backfiring with a lot of voters as every move they make Trump gains in some poll somewhere.

At least the AH finally said Trump could attend his Son's graduation.

I suppose someone could make a cable to download or transfer images that had some sort of device somewhere in the middle of the cable that would convert the image format.
But I can't think of a reason I would want one when I can control conversions in my PP apps.

If one exists I have never seen it that I can remember.

First two the bird is going to collide with the frame edge, no where to go.

The next two the bird has somewhere to go.
Going right to left implies leaving to me.
D also implies leaving to me.

But in English we read left to right so D feels better.

After 30 years I am retiring from B&H Photo as of 05/03/24. My job is being transferred to Geoffrey Ngai <gngai@bhphoto.com>. 

Working for B&H and interacting here with all of you has been a singular and entirely satisfying experience. I want to thank everyone here who helped make it so. When I started at B&H I never expected to be here for 30 years, Now it's time to step back, stop setting the alarm clock every morning, and spend more time paying attention to my wife. 

Best wishes to one and all.

And you know this how? Or is it just what you want to believe because you don't like President Trump?

Trump brought us COVID. Over 1 million Americans died. Trump is the deadliest President ever to inflict his ego on the United States.


Indict, convict, and punish the murderer.


The Chinese gave us COVID. President Trump got bad advice from Fauci and the CDC. Then the medical community in general got caught using methods that weren't very effective. Things like the N95 masks could only filter out a % of the tiny COVID viruses.* President Trump did fast track research for a vaccine which the drug companies rushed and short cut testing (under pressure from Gvt, Congress and Media among others) so we ended up with an "almost, sorta" vaccine that didn't prevent but at least did make most COVID cases less severe.

*I have asthma and bought a 3M Industrial/Lab grade 1.2 face respirator mask with an N100 filter pack set, and even they are only 99.97% effective against COVID sized viruses. I went to a medical appointment at Kaiser wearing it and several people asked me about it and how much it was. My next appointment a week later I saw some of the Doctors, Nurses etc. walking around wearing them. One doctor had the full face version and another had the version with the filter in a canister on your belt and a battery powered fan to suck air through the filter and them up a hose to the mask.

Prove where President Biden ordered ANY of the current four CRIMINAL court cases.

Don't try trumpsplaining, provide verifiable evidence that President Biden had or has anything to do with the four criminal court cases.

My guess is that all you'll come up is nothing more than trump talking points, but no verifiable evidence of any kind of link to President Biden "ordering" anything to do with trump and the current four criminal court cases.

Actions have consequences, and trump is suffering the consequences of his prior actions.

IF trump hadn't committed criminal acts, he wouldn't be facing these four criminal court cases.

A lot of innocent people get put on trial. That is what the trial is for, to find out if they are guilty or innocent.
As an alternate juror I watched a traffic case end in less than one hour when the Defense called a CHP officer to testify for the truck driver. 1. the rookie city cop cited the wrong vehicle code 2. even if it had been the right code number what the driver did wasn't illegal on that road and 3. the road in question was CHP territory, not city police territory. The Judge dropped/dismissed the case and advised the young cop to take a refresher traffic code course.

I think you mean you shot 120 film on your hasselblad. I can tell you from direct experience I have used and Epson 600 flat Bed and VueScan software to get excellent scans from 120 Negatives B&W and Color as well as Transparencies
There is a learning curve to get the best scans, and you can use higher end scanners, or send them out to be scanned


Yep, I also have a 120 holder for my Epson 600. In fact I have just about every size holder from 110 to 4x5 and 8x10(part of a set I bought, I have never had an 8x10 camera).

I do have a 35mm film scanner that takes slides fed one at a time or 35mm filmstrips/rolls that auto advance.

I'll never understand it. Do they find them cute? Funny? Devoted? Loving? People who have dogs are delusional. I certainly don't see the appeal, but this little guy lives in my house so he's fair game for photo sessions.


This little guy is mainly for affection and fun. But many people keep big dogs to discourage door-to-door salespeople or the neighborhood wildlife.

My wife, way back when I met her in the early 70's had a German Shepherd named George, he had flunked out of guard/police dog school because he was too friendly and non-aggressive. But he had a sense of humor and was protective of Debra and all small children.

Once a salesman came to the door and George did his usual jump to the back of the coach by the door to look out. Most who came to the door knew George did that and talked to him, which made him very happy. But one day when I was there, a pushy sales person opened the screen door just as my mother-in-law opened the inner door. George looked around the door (head about 5-6' up) and barked. The reaction was very entertaining.

The first time I hugged Debra in front of George when we were dating he pushed in between our legs and gave me a "You didn't ask permission first." look. Debra talked to him and then hugged me. After that it was OK, but he would come over and wait for his turn at hugs. When our first born was about a year and his cousin was 3 months older, George appointed himself the guardian of Michael and Jennifer. Anyone scold them, even when George saw them getting into trouble and he would come over sit down between the adults and the toddler(s) with a "You should be ashamed to scold the cute little kid(s)" look.

And when Debra's sister's husband gave her a pedigreed St Bernard puppy named Chris he got raised with George as his role model. When Chris was grown (top 10% in size for a St Bernard) he pretty much thought he was a very friendly German Shepherd. Michael and Jennifer used to use him for a bean bag to take naps in the yard. Now close your eyes and imagine a LARGE St Bernard reacting to taggers in the ally behind the garage WOOF!!! and the first time the trash guy (who was a family friend) came in the gate to get the cans when my Father-in-Law forgot to put them in the alley for pickup. Chris had seen the man talking with Louie when he was still a puppy but the man didn't expect Chris to be at the In-laws house and had not seen him since he was grown. Here came a furry Volkswagen bounding toward him going WOOF WOOF, the guy almost had a heart attack and then almost got licked to death by said Chris trying to get pets and hugs.

When something went on in the alley while Chris was visiting George didn't even bother to wake up from his naps. He left it to the mountain that barked.

The highly publicized Trump trial.

What crime did Trump commit?



.


He decided to go for round two with Biden now that Biden has a record (as opposed to promises) to run against.
And even worse, he seems to have a lead in the polls.

Both are pretty much capital offenses to the ultra left and most of the media.

They are very good little cameras. But they have the same problem as other view screens in bright sunlight = hard to see the subject for framing and focus. I even have the problem with my Canon RP and R7, I wear glasses so light gets into the viewfinder and washes out the image. Using the back screen is even worse in bright light.
They should work great in dim light or at night outside.

For bright days I either use one of my EF bodies or put on contacts and even then a little light leaks, so I have ordered a rubber eye cup for the viewfinders of my two R bodies.

They make a viewfinder that fits over the back screen of the fp or fp L, Sigma's is $699, I think there are one or two third party versions for less but I never bothered to do a deep search. Since I went with the Canon RP/R7. That wasn't a hard choice for me since I am a Canon user mostly now, my only Sigma body I have left is an SD10 with 3 lenses I keep around as a backup or loaner to family members.

I shoot my Hasselblad occasionally with B&W 110 film. I develop the film myself and want to scan it for post processing high quality JPEG images. Most of the film scanners I was able to find online are limited to 35mm film. The only film scanner for 110 film I was able to get information on is the Kodak 7" Digital Film Scanner. Ratings for ease of use are very high, and quality ratings are mixed. However, the ratings are mixed because they seem to conflate scanner quality with editing features. I don't care about the scanner's editing features because I will use my post-processing software to convert the negatives to positives and then edit them. Any comments on the Kodak film scanners from UHH participants that have used it? Alternatively, does anyone have specific experience with other scanners you would recommend? Thanks to all!

I have a couple of holders for 110 that fit a flatbed scanner. And I have a photo quality flatbed. It seldom gets used for anything but photos or negatives. Documents just go through the all-in-one print/scan/fax units auto feed.
