You may be correct, however you should know that there was an article on NPR this week about Nigera and paying ones bills there via cell phone. Nigera, by the NPR account, is the most advanced country in the world for this. The reporter went there with only funds to purchase a phone and to load the sim with funds. That's all he used.

Just saying...


lighthouse, I'm glad you went to my website and gave your verdict here, I love that. Nigerian being one of the best African country was then one of the country that is back listed by Paypal but now, Nigeria is an authorized Paypal supported country which was officially included on that 17/06/2014 and it's the right of Nigeria entrepreneur to bring the info to the Nigerians.

And for the fact that I asked about the best Camera you have ever used, I think for anything that is to light it must first burn so, I want to look before I leap so that I won't have myself to blame when there are experts who know much about Camera than I do

I think am now confused about which I can go for! Nikon or Go-pro? And hope the price can be affordable?

A baking powder can with a pinhole of 1.0243856&#956;m. My favorite film is 4 X 6 Plus-X Pan (when available). I am working on stacking several celluloid filters and using a different film for pinhole infra-red.

I want one! I will pay you 10,000 Nigerian Naira (about US$1.50).

I'm having trouble finding the cans, but if I find one, do you want the baking powder or just the empty can with pinhole? Either way, the cost is 25,000 Indonesian Rupiah (approximately USD 2.50) plus shipping (CONUS only; film/filters not included).

Canon 1DSII for digital, $7,900 new
Canon VIT rangefinder, with built in trigger advance, for film=priceless

Hogs, amigos. Please note that this setup, which I used for years, features Canon body and Nikkor 50/1.4 Leia screw mount lens, off Bell and Howell body sold by Sears. Before Nikon was Nikon, they made lenses for Sears!

hi and thanks for your nice photos of your outfit.
bell & Howell was strictly an importer of early canon cameras. they never manufactured interchangeable lens rangefinder cameras. canon was originally manufactured by seiki kogaku. they only made camera bodies. the lenses were supplied by nippon kogaku. this all begins in 1933. by 1935 you wind up with the hansa canon. it is a combination of random parts originally made for the kwanon cameras. both nikon (nippon kogaku) and canon are considered forerunners of the canon and nikon rangefinder cameras. from what i can see in the photo, you have a 50mm nikkor 1:1.4 lens - this was introduced in 1949. the first production nikon rangefinder camera is introduced in 1951. up until that point, nikon rangefinder lenses are made and used on canon, nicca, yashica and leica m39 screwmount rangefinders.
hope this is of assistance to you.
kindest regards,
wj cody

I have found that bridge cameras are good for video. They have OIS and are simple to use. My best video comes from my Kodak Z990.

Maybe I can improve the video I'm getting from my Olympus E-PL5, but it's going to take more work.

C'mon, who are you trying to kid? You live near the heart of the banking center of the Pacific Rim and you don't have a branch of Bank of Jakarta in your neighnorhood? OK, since you want to deal in African currency, I will settle for one Krugerrand, and I'll ship the camera with a 25 sheet box of film of my choice and a gaffer tape shutter. Considering that each lens tool is a special order, this is a bargain. And, Nikonian72, as much as I admire and respect you, I do NOT accept checks. Better jump at this offer while it's still on the table!

Today's market price of a gold South African Krugerrand = US$1,358.00. I am gonna pass.

OK, but don't forget you had your chance with the Rupiah!
