I've always thought "Civil War" was an oxymoron.


I used "Civil War" from the collection's name.
Since they are not all war pictures, era might be accurate.
Perhaps "War of Northern Aggression" would suit you better.

I was reading a post on this forum about teleconverter's and got interested in the "Kenko 2.0X PRO 300 Teleconverter DGX for Canon EOS Digital SLRs".
I have a fairly new Canon EOS Rebel T3i with a Canon Zoom Lens EF 75-300mm 1:4-5.6 IS , will this teleconverter work well with this set up?
I posted this question on Amazon and so far I have received two answers. The first was "Yes it will, as long as it is not a EF-S . It may hunt during auto focus, just focus manually, you lose a couple f stops with a converter. I personally love mine".
The second reply suggested that I research the subject more before I buy.

So if anyone has experience with this combination please contribute to this post.
I RV for about 5 months a year. I bought my first DSLR when I started RVing in 2008. I take most of my photos when RVing and a lot of them are scenic wonder and wildlife. It seems like I keep wanting a bigger lens. I own a Nikon Coolpix P510 because of it's 42x telephoto. I use both cameras but like the Canon T3i due to its speed when just taking a quick shot.

Your thoughts or opinions on using Q-tips to clean lenses.
Thank you.



Delicately Clean Eye Glass Lenses
Q-tips ® cotton swabs are soft enough to clean makeup from the little ridges on eye glasses. Removes the makeup and doesn't scratch the lens!

But I use microfiber towels.

May I ask a computer purchase question here? (for the general non-photography discussion)

Would a 2008 used Mac laptop from a swapmeet be able or need to install the new Yosemite Operating System? Is "$300+" price reasonable? Are there any other considerations? or caveats?

Hoping for quick replies before going to the swapmeet tomorrow.

pixie is up to his typical liberal puke lying again!

Pixie is very much like Loughner.

Just a little from wiki:

Views on politics[edit]
Records show that Loughner was registered as an Independent and voted in 2006 and 2008, but not in 2010.[39][40] A YouTube channel under an account called "Classitup10" was linked to Loughner. (There have been numerous copies of 'impostor accounts' such as 'JaredLoughner' and 'Classitup1O'.)[41][42]

Loughner's high school friend Zach Osler said, "He did not watch TV; he disliked the news; he didn't listen to political radio; he didn't take sides; he wasn't on the Left; he wasn't on the Right."[17] A former classmate, Caitie Parker, who attended high school and college with Loughner, described his political views prior to 2007, prior to his personality transformation, as "left wing, quite liberal,"[43] "radical."[44]

In the aftermath of the shooting, the Anti-Defamation League reviewed messages by Loughner, and concluded that there was a "disjointed theme that runs through Loughner's writings", which was a "distrust for and dislike of the government." It "manifested itself in various ways" – for instance, in the belief that the government used the control of language and grammar to brainwash people, the notion that the government was creating "infinite currency" without the backing of gold and silver, or the assertion that NASA was faking spaceflights.[45]

Dislike for Gabrielle Giffords[edit]
According to a former friend, Bryce Tierney, Loughner had expressed a longstanding dislike for Gabrielle Giffords. Tierney recalled that Loughner had often said that women should not hold positions of power.[46][47] He repeatedly derided Giffords as a "fake". This belief intensified after he attended her August 25, 2007 event when she did not, in his view, sufficiently answer his question: "What is government if words have no meaning?"[19] Loughner kept Giffords' form letter, which thanked him for attending the 2007 event, in the same box as an envelope which was scrawled with phrases like "die bitch" and "assassination plans have been made".[48] Zane Gutierrez, a friend, later told the New York Times that Loughner's anger would also "well up at the sight of President George W. Bush, or in discussing what he considered to be the nefarious designs of government."[47]

Conspiracy theories[edit]
His friend Zach Osler noted that conspiracy theories had a profound effect on Loughner, particularly the online film Zeitgeist: The Movie, with which friends claimed Loughner held an obsession.[16][49] He was a member of the message board Above Top Secret, which discussed conspiracy theories; members of the site did not respond warmly to his posts.[50][51][52] Loughner espoused conspiracy theories about the 9/11 attacks,[47] the New World Order, and beliefs in a 2012 apocalypse, among other controversial viewpoints. Reports appearing after the shooting noted similarities between the statements made by Loughner and those publicized by the conspiracy theorist David Wynn Miller.[53][54][55] The Anti-Defamation League's report also confirmed Loughner's longstanding interest in conspiracy theories.[56]

Views on religion[edit]
Journalists had speculated that Loughner was anti-Semitic due to his attack on Rep. Giffords, who is Jewish, but the Anti-Defamation League's analysis of the messages by Loughner found that he had a more generalized dislike of religion, and of government. Loughner declined to state his religion in his Army application. In his "Final Thoughts" video, Loughner stated, "No, I won't trust in God!" This comment, possibly a reference to the U.S. motto "In God We Trust," which appears on U.S. currency, comes after a complaint that U.S. currency is not backed by gold or silver, indicating Loughner believed the currency was untrustworthy.[45][56][57]

I recently upgraded my iMac to Yosemite OSX and now the Canon utility won't download images from my camera and the Canon website doesn't offer an update.

Has anyone else encountered this? More importantly, has anyone found an answer?


I'm running 10.10.2 on MBP 15 mid 2010 6,2 and both my SX50 & 7D
when connected open iPhoto and download the photos.

I have not encountered any other problems iPhotos, but agree that things in canon utilities don't work, get the message 'doesn't work with this version of OS'.

If your camera doesn't open iPhoto and download pics, you might try a re-install of yosemite and updates, if you haven't already done so.

I know, not much help.
