News
- Another Nikon day on September 23rd and 24th. DSLRs finally? [NikonRumors]
- Transcend is recalling some of its Class 10 16 GB SDHC cards. Check your serial numbers at CheesyCam to see if you’re affected.
- EOSHD reviews the Sony NEX-5N and posts sample video. “There is absolutely no doubt that Sony have produced a dark horse here, at this price and position in the range.”
Rumors
- The translucent mirror in the A77 negatively affects picture quality? [SonyAlphaRumors]
- Sony is developing three new fullframe cameras for 2012. All will be mirrorless, and could have a new 36 MP sensor. [SonyAlphaRumors]
- Canon to release a new EF mount video camera in October. Will have APS-C sensor. [CanonRumors]
Of Note
- Cinema5D reviews JAG35’s new $500 electronic follow focus. The verdict: great price, works decently, but very noisy and has some big flaws.
- Attach lenses, microphones, and a tripod mount to an iPad 2 with this neat gadget for better-looking video. (But if you’re serious about video, get an actual video camera. The iPad’s camera is crap.)
Rap-a-rhyme
Another lie you try tell me why I cannot fly into the sky
Hit the wall tragic fall hear my call from an infernal ball
My past will not last so I cast it into the vast
Desire turns you into buyer or a liar playing with fire
Feeling numb you become deaf and dumb with some home
Less mess a stress psychotic madness over a cursed bless
The apex humming ka-ching ka-ching show of ba-bling ba-bling
As the slugs and thugs much like bugs mug the jugs
Honey coat money carried by a bunny thinks it funny
As kids won’t open lids to see seeds of unconscious idiots
Those whose work will oppose people’s hopes and scopes
That is align and design for what’s consign to the undefined
A billionaire unwilling to share a pear to be fair he won’t dare
Cheer as he spears the dear causes fear as a tear’s drop I hear quite near
So we’re send to the end of this bend cannot mend or defend as we lend
Expectations of creation and take inspiration for molestation from desperation
