There has been much debate regarding these upcoming stimulus checks. Many claim it should have been $2000. And, some say nothing more should be given out? Zero. What's your opinion?

I am an R/N, I will definitely take it. I work at a children's hospital so our priority is lower than the hospitals that care for adults. I don't know when it will be available to me but hope it is soon. I understand the apprehension some people may have. Having friends working at hospitals caring for victims of this virus and what they have witnessed scares me. I would rather gamble on the shot that suffer through the virus. Just my opinion for what it's worth..hope everyone stays safe until we can get through this.

Good for you to take the vaccine. There are at least 3 manufactures of the vaccine. Pfizer is the leader, says the TV News. Health Care Workers and Seniors in Rest Homes, are recommended to take it firsthand. I don't expect it to be available for myself until early Spring, next year.

I got my Flu Shot in late October of this year. No mention then, when the COVID-19 vaccine would be available at my medical center. Two of my male friends, say they will not take the vaccine. They are afraid of other health issues from taking it. Seems like many think the same as my two friends. According to TV News Reports. I plan to take the vaccine, when the opportunity arises. Will you take the vaccine?

I have dealt with USPS, UPS, and FedEx. And have had at least one problem with each of them in past years. I ordered my very first item from Amazon last month, and received it 2 days earlier than the projected delivery date. B&H, my favorite camera shop, never delivered a package to my residence so quickly. I had FedEx pack a box for me last year, to go from California to Wisconsin. I paid surface shipping fees, plus insurance. It arrived as promised, and safely. I hope your problem will be taken care of, to your satisfaction.

That is one luxurious automobile. An oldie. Not affordable to most during that time. In 1908, any automobile was not affordable to most. The photo looks great in download.

Clark Gable and Cary Grant were two of my late mother's favorites. She told my father, that that if either knocked on the front door. He would be in trouble. Kidding of course.

He was obviously the best of the James Bond. His replacement actors, Roger Moore and Timothy Dalton would rank 2nd and 3rd IMO. Two beautiful Bond Girls also passed away.. Within the past year. There were plans to replace James Bond with a British 007 woman. She was ready to go. But, it was decided that the woman version would not be so popular among die hard James Bond movie fans. The James Bond movies date back to 1962.

I think you're remembering "From Russia, With Love".


You are correct. It was From Russia With Love. I saw Dr. No afterwards.

The first James Bond movie I saw was Dr. No. I'll never forget that fight he had with the villain inside a train compartment. He eventually received a Supporting Best Actor Oscar for the movie the Untouchables. He was a very versatile actor indeed. The Hunt For Red October showed his versatility. Also, best friends with Michael Caine. The Scottish actor will be remembered. RIP.

Yes, I do remember when ice cream came in 1/2 gallon square containers. Now, they are in round or oval shaped containers that are 1.5 quarts. About $4 to $4.50 each. Quality ice cream melts. Ice cream that has its shape, and barely melts, is stuffed with fillers, as mentioned earlier. Breyers is known for this. Which is why I prefer Dryers instead. Dairy Queen has the best soft serve ice cream cones. IMO.

I have only seen once, a D600. It was replaced by the D610. The D600 had a problem The D610 is also discontinued. I would suggest a D750. I met two photographers at photography events who had nothing but praise for that camera. It's successor, the D780, which has some extra bells and whistles, is more expensive. But, has the same 24megapixels sensor, as the D750. You can buy a refurbished D750 at a very good price today.

I purchased a new Yongnuo #685 flash for a Nikon, $102. Yongnuo was considered the best aftermarket flash unit, not long ago. Godox, has curtailed sales today of Yongnuo flash units. That, should tell you something?

FY edumacation, the very ordinary and once ubiquitous 135/2.8 has the same DoF as an “exotic” 50/0.95. What does that tell you about marketing ?


Interesting to know. I've never seen a 0.95 lens. The fastest lens I saw on a camera was a 85mm f1.2L Canon.

That oval shaped portrait photo reminds me of a photo my grandmother had of her young son. From the late 1920's. Bokeh is disliked and liked. Fast lenses, f2.8 or faster, do have an advantage for fast action sports. As well as achieving bokeh. As a hobbyist, I would assume, that among professional photographers, that a blurry background is preferred though. For portraits. The fastest lens I have, is a Nikon f1.8 50mm, that I use for portraits on a crop sensor. And kids outdoor soccer games. I get a FOV of 75mm. Not the very best, but still adequate. A pro photographer, who owns a Nikon D750 and a D810, once told me, that a fast 135mm was his best portrait lens. His second choice was a Nikon 70-200mm f2.8.
