Quote from Scrabby :

and what about lenses, what are all the different lenses. Please a bit more info on wich types etc

Here I see a Canon EOS 1000D + EF-S 18-55 IS <---- lens?
I really want to go further into fotography, more specific into motorsports

Just get what Don's having!

(And quadruple your budget.)

Quote from Scrabby :

Hi guys, what is a good DSLR camera to start with? I was looking at a Canon EOS 1000D? Good choice or what do you recommend me? My budget is about 600€

There are no bad DSLRs on the market in the consumer price class - every single one of them will take great pictures.

Most of the differences are in ergonomics (personal preference) and feature sets (also personal preference what you value).

Best advice: Visit your local dealer and fondle the different cameras. The one that fits your hand the best is the one to take home.

Consider a low-end body only and pick a decent lens to go with it. You'll sacrifice some reach and versatility if you go with a fast-ish prime instead of the slow kit zoom but on the other hand big aperture prime let's you shoot in available light with better results.

Enduro this time - http://don.vn.cz/photos/enduro_branky08/

normal service (rally) will be resumed next week

The 'rear wheel wheel stuck in mud spinning' was crushingly fine piece of photography. Awesome job once again!

And there we have a prime example what's wrong with present day games and game design. Tragically that incident was probably the only good thing to come out of Far Cry 2 and the millions of dollars invested in it.

EDIT: Watched the 'leaked gameplay' vid too. Dear God that game is made of concentrated failure.

My vidz get censored faster than a blind man yells cheese after smelling cheese.

Name it Scawen and train it to program racing sims.

I accidentally a whole Insim is it bad?

If there's any justice in the world, Obama wins.

But it takes only one well-executed scandal to erase his chance of presidency...

Few of my fav's

Hold on, you should increase the size of the watermark just a bit, I can still see the picture.

Quote from mickyc30 :

...its awesome and its 12MP.

Camera is only as awesome as how many hot babes can you fit in the frame.

And all the virgins with pre-purchased 5DMk2s can go shoot landscapes and cry themselves to sleep.

Quote from JJ72 :

sooo...thus far, how much have you guys spend on Iracing?

20$ for the demo.

I might re-subscribe when they have a better road car or race tintop selection. So far the the car selection feels like being rickrolled.

Damn, you won. You got half-nekkid pit babes with mudkip paint on.

back to gigs



(Moar pics from the gig and a less crappy RAW conversion coming later after I get some sleep)

The band was the Drown Syndrome earlier tonight.

back to babes

Quote from Shotglass :

its basically the same uninspiring techdemo with more explosions

Kinda like iRacing.

Quote from batteryy :

if interested, he used walther P228 pistol. and no, he didnt survive, he died in a hospital

Walther P22. It's Sig Sauer that manufactures the P228 and it's whole lot bigger caliber. No way of getting that caliber for his first gun in Finland unless he stole one.

Today's event was a tragedy but there's a silver lining.

Maybe now some bright politician sees a golden career honeypot in raising discussion and drawing people's attention to the lacking mental help options for teens - and more importantly, for boys. Finland is already saturated with safe houses and social safenets for girls but boys are completely forgotten in the background.

Mark my words and quote for truth.

Cool but...


Dear God that looks stupid.

Frank Klepacki.

Aaaaaand that's about wraps this thread up for good.

Quote from thisnameistaken :

Dragged a bloke inside my house to get him away from a bunch of chavs trying to mug him, then entertained him with whiskey and fags and surprise buttsecks and packed him off home once the coast was clear.

I'd expect nothing less!

Bring back the old wings and put negative magnet in the rear bumper and a positive one in the nose.

EDIT: Would make an interesting sight when the safety car gathers the field together.

Brilliant!

Though I was somewhat disappointed that they didn't include more silly details in the background, like a wheel with 17 paddles or PS2-controller hanging by the wire from the cockpit.

Quote from xaotik :

It's more like a pre-1600s British tea-party - there's only boiled water to drink and a lot of unwashed people around.

I fail to see the bad sides of that scene.

It's fun here though we ran out of cupcakes some time ago.

The slowish times before updates feel like chilling out with my buddies in an iHolocaustic summer camp waiting for the Allied to rescue us with new content. Sipping margaritas, playing beach volley and nekkid chicks are in no short supply.

Also possible rescue scenarios:
–Scawen throws in the towel after S2, busts the game wide open for modding and iRacing team hires him as a consultant how to make a proper racing sim.
–Cupcake shipment arrives.
–S2 arrives instead of cupcakes and brings new tracks, boatloads of more bumps and texture to old ones and proper damage.
–Cupcakes arrive but they are cherry flavoured.

EDIT: I've lost my touch. Facepalm.

Just play Arma. The controls feel the same if you move your poor soldier with a joystick, keyboard and mouse, gamepad, pedals, through your buddy via telephone yelling instructions or hitting the PC case with a log.

I love Arma Evolution Hohei MP to death.
