The Truth About Canon's Lenses...


haha was taken at one of the indonesia's airport~ lol i wasnt doubting canon's claim about the amount of lens elements. just that now we can see it! wahah too bad it was taken with a Handphone snapshot. the higher res version of it actually shows different colours for the diffent types of glass that makes up the different elements in the lens!

Geez,
that's embarassing ! :angry:

It seems that Indonesian airports lacks of security that they allowed people to interfere their security matters,
what if you are a terorist and act to make them let go some bomb because they're talking to you

Tomorrow, I go to Singapore,
I'll try to interfere their job and take several infra red photos like this also :bsmilie:

I'll bring 1D body and L lenses also to make it even :bsmilie:

maybe can try singapore flyer? saw the same thing when the bag went through the machine. go as a "tourist" and they may just let u shoot. it is ur own bag after all. but try it during off peak period.

its ok to name the country wad. nothing wrong with it. its like a wide known thing about their tough uncompromising security.
 

See..coz of TS..now everyone wants to have their gears scanned! hahahaha! super LOL! But this post was very interesting!!!

Wow... super expensive setup..
Next time, I should "kidnap" your bag ... :cool:
 

did you have to "buy them coffee" to get the shot?

haha nope didnt have to buy them coffee! i wanted to tip them but it feels weird trying to tip airport police.. so decided not to do it! lol actually after i took the first shot i was walking away when a bunch of them caught up with me and called me back. i tot i was in trouble.. den they directed me back to the screen with an enlarged verison of the previous shot so i could take another shot! LOL dont think u can tip those guys without getting into trouble? that's an airport and i think security cams are everywhere..

I'm not sure if it is a big deal because going through security at many airports, while collecting my stuff, I can catch a glimpse of the monitor they were looking at. One time I didn't take out my laptop and the guy even turn the screen towards me and pointed at the screen and ask me what was that thing... :dunno:
 

They liked to point at my lead bags
 

now i know how to fashion my C4 plastic explosives into layered discs and stack them into cylinders.

thanks for the tip!
