Rantings of an Educated Fool

Gotta send my 40D back to Adorama…auto-focus is screwy and I have 2 days left on my warranty

They said they’re sending a new one, but according to the site they have no refurbished 40D’s in stock…soooooooooo wtf

Is quickly becoming a popular catch phrase (or whatever you call it)

I guess it’s because of this site

Instant fave.

New 50mm f/1.8 came in the mail today!

$106 for lens, filter, hood and fast shipping.

I knew the lens was cheaply made and even tested it out at Ritz, but I believe that mine is extra ghetto for some reason. Focusing hunts a lot (not as much inside Ritz, though light is much better there than in my room) and is noiser than my Tamron 28-75 f/2.8. Other than this, it’s great. I can work around focusing issues because I’m good like that ^_^

I’m highly disappointed in the UV filter I got. The glass element MOVES…like as if it’s not glued to the threads that screw onto the lens properly. The hood I got (rubber) luckily helps keep it stable, but it’s still annoying that it can move. Also, it gets scratched easily. I was cleaning it and already saw scraches from my microfiber cloth…wtf…oh well, you get what you pay for.

Hood is great. Rubber and collapsible and was cheap. Yay.

It’ll get it’s first low light test this Friday at Fujiya and Miyagi…Cat’s Cradle is dark as shit, so I’ll need it.

Ugh gotta get some work done

sleepy. All nighter on Mon, late night last night.

Plus having DTH bitch at me isn’t helping.

Go to some DMP shows and have fun. I’ll be stuck here at UNC dying.

Yay my picture!!!!! Yay ultra-wide angle!!!!!!
