Oh my goodness! Now shift topic to 苹果..
Bad boy..bad boy..:devil: :devil:

I think SLIGHTLY cheaper.
For example, Gitzo series 2 explorer tripod (carbon fibre) is $749. Listed on pricelist. Cannot hide.

thats quite a price off, compared to online which is 800++ even the treat me like ghost shop, who quote me 820 saying its after discount....

tempted....:think::sweat:

ipad can tether to Canon or Nikon or not? that would be a cool external display...

sorry man... didn't ask about filters. The way the shop is setup, doesn't look like they carry filters. Usually it's in those "bellow-the-table-top" kind of glass displays, drawers... Looks like lots of boxes stacked everywhere...

hahahha, u dont ask for much ar, next will be can ipad be stable enough to do on-location editing,

 

[ZerocoolAstra]

hahaha I saw one pro lug around a Macbook pro tethered to his D3 with all those cables...
then when Frank mentioned iPad i started thinking if it was possible for a more compact combination. How big is the ipad's screen? 7" or 10". Should be enough to see more details.
But I heard that it only accepts the standard iPod kind of connector, so I think tethering is out of the question.

the only time i saw the ipad in real life, was when my producer keep using it to search for videos on line to show my cameraman the shots she wants, hahahaha...

think its 7", but seriously i dont know why i just not swayed by the ipad movement.

i think it's a "neither here nor there" size... too big to stuff in pocket, yet too small to use properly like a notebook PC.

totally agree with you, :thumbsup:
its more like a blown up i touch, thou mac-fanac might kill me...hahaha

wish they make a 10" macbook tablet style.... thats a thought....

 

[coolthought]

For the best of everything discussed so far... get something like this....
This way all perspective distortion due to tilting the camera up will be eliminated.... (at least as high as this thing can go)

Images hotlink from Manfrotto site

 

[ZerocoolAstra]

doesn't look terribly stable, especially for long-exposure photography.
use in bright daylight should be no issues.

[conkeychua]

Didn't notice the sky.... :cry: and I was driving westward too...
all I was focused on was the tail of the Nissan GT-R that was blocking my way along ECP.

GTR Blocking your way :bigeyes::bigeyes::bigeyes:

Might not be able to Live View but I think can download images direct from Canon/Nikon cameras via the iPad camera connector (which is a 30-pin Dock to USB adapter).
