The best tripod I've ever used was a Pro Junior. This was a myopic tripod, wooden legs, but quick setup. Sturdy enough to use for what you want. Fluid heads are expensive and very heavy. Unfortunately the lat time I used one was in the early 70's. I realize this isn't much help, but it's all I've got. You might try to find an Arriflex tripod on Ebay or Craig's list.

What does the "WD" stand for? I'll give ya a clue.

43. If you spray it inside a wet distributor cap, it will displace the moisture, allowing the engine to start.


Nothing to add to tis other than formula # 40.

Hey, giving the liberals a break and having a smile instead of a headache, here is my joke for the day.

A possum is a flat animal that
sleeps in the middle of the road.

There are 5,000 types of snakes and 4,998 of them live in the South.

There are 10,000 types of spiders. All 10,000 of them live in the South, plus a couple no one's seen before.


Onced and Twiced are words.

It is not a shopping cart, it is a buggy!

Jawl-P? means,
Did you all go
to the bathroom?

People actually grow,eat and like okra.

Fixinto is one word. It means
"I'm going to do that."

There is no such thing as lunch. There is only dinner and then there's supper.

Iced tea is appropriate for all meals and you start drinking it when you're two. We do like a little tea with our sugar.
It is referred to as the Wine of the South.

Backwards and forwards means I know everything about you.

The word jeet is actually a question meaning, 'Did you eat?'

You don't have to wear a watch, because it doesn't matter what time it is, you work until you're done or it's too dark to see.

You don't PUSH buttons, you MASH em.

Ya'll is singular.
All ya'll is plural.

All the festivals across the state are named after a fruit, vegetable, grain, insect, or animal.

You carry jumper cables in your car -for your OWN car.
[Why else would you carry them?]

You only own five spices: salt, pepper, mustard, Tabasco and ketchup.

[Everyone knows that ketchup is a vegetable.

The other spice is bar-b-que sauce.]

The local papers cover national and international news on one page,
but require 6 pages for local high school sports, the motor sports, and gossip.

[Don't forgit the obits]

Everyone you meet is a Honey, Sugar, Miss(first name) or
Mr.(first name)

You think that the first day of deer season is a national holiday.
[In NC the first day of bear season IS a state holiday]

You know what a hissy fit is..
[And you know how to pitch one]

Fried catfish is the other white meat.

We don't need no dang Driver's Ed.
If our mama says we can drive, we can drive!!!

You understand these jokes and forward them to your Southern friends and those who just wish they were from the SOUTH.

And, in Pennsylvania, 'You-ins' means you and your wife.

And in Texas, why did the chicken cross the road? to prove to the possum that it could be done.

With all the automatic features built into current DSLR cameras why is there no screen showing DOF info at various settings. all of the data is well known and covered by formulas. If a subject is moving to fast either toward or away from the camera then a NA (not available) notation could be shown. Seems to me that with the technology today this info should be easily included. Any thoughts?

For starters, you can preview your shot on the LCD screen or "post view", or you can go "old school" and roughly check the DOF indicator on the lens. See attached image. As you can see there are various f/stops on either side of the focus line. The red dot is where you would "offset" the focus for infrared. Hope this helps. Shoot lots and keep smiling.

While long ago, I knew I had zero talent for painting or drawing, I still admired works of art, be they paintings carvings, or sculpture. I particularly found impressionistic art soothing to the senses and have a few Monet prints hanging around the house. Back in 2012, my wife and I sailed our boat up the Navesink river in New Jersey and dropped anchor so I could take a few snapshots of other boats and the beautiful houses along the way. Got this digital zoom with my Canon SX40. Looks a bit like impressionistic art. no Monet but might be worth framing. What do you hoggers think?

Take a look at this. A quick look at this. Your sailboat using filters in Adobe Photoshop Elements (a lot cheaper than PS). Not trying to put down Picasa or Gimp. Let me know what you think.

Would a lens hood provide any amount of protection to the front element? I don't want to put a UV filter on an expensive lens just for "protection".
I have ALWAYS put a UV filter on my lenses for protection. Cheaper to replace a scratched filter than having to repair a scratched lens.
