Many bridges have little "islands" protecting the bridge supports. In one case, those islands were added to the new bridge after a ship's collision destroyed the former bridge.
I can't believe that a bridge of this size and importance wasn't protected by those "little islands". You know that sooner or later something like this is going to happen.

And our costs show it. Double any other country.

I get the feeling that 90% of the cost of these products is the advertising. It's sure not an inducement for me to buy it.

"Banned RAW files" and photos that were processed from RAW photos are different.
"Processed" seems to be the keyword here, it appears that they want the original JPEG from the camera, unprocessed.

My guess is that it is easier to spoof an AI picture to a RAW file than a JPEG since JPEG files have conjoined data points.

I carry a Model 1911 .45 ACP! Don't know if that would be considered unusual??
It used to be but not anymore.

I have to agree. DST is nothing but a disruption to our Circadian rhythms.

I suppose it looks like a portable Gatling Gun?

My niece may have an opportunity to acquire a used D800E from her late great uncle’s estate at a bargain price with some good lenses. She is a beginner but shoots mainly for a local newspaper. She does no post processing now but is planning to take a course. Would this be good for her or would it potentially just frustrate her? This question is mainly for Nikon users and I don’t know much about this camera other than what I read at the BH site. Right now she uses a CanonT100.
I'm not sure whether the additional weight is problematic but I've found that the main advantage of my D800 is in the ergonomics which are easily accessible using the direct controls rather than convoluted menu options.

I was thinking about heat - like a propane torch - but the freezer might be better. 🤣
A propane torch might be a bit much. Try a hair dryer first.

I don’t know if they can help or not but the call is free and who knows, it might pan out.
Best of luck.

These people are great. If they can't do anything they will tell you.

You're making a mistake by dismissing the 200~500 zoom. It's the best kept secret in Nikon's collection!
Absolutely!
