Yes. Yes, it is! In other news, I finally got the first batch of 6 photos uploaded. AND I was brave enough to post them!

They're pretty awful. But they're what I have and I enjoyed my day at Comic Con even though I had worked all night, so I was running on no sleep. And my kids loved it. That's the best part. They had a blast.

I mean, where else would you try to fit a DSLR? Even in a medical context.

So. Up a tree.

Without a paddle.

Huh?.

I thought that it was up the ~~crease~~ creek without a paddle ... or maybe without a "hociR" branded K-3 ... J

Right. Up a creek, gnawing off the paddle you're sitting on. Which might get stuck up the crease.

And that's why you'll need hociR branded medical equipment.

Which the K-3 is not, so no reason to buy one.

Ummmm, yeah, okay, we'll go with that.

**savoche** · 02-17-2014, 06:05 AM

Umm, I think I need some rest. I just saw this thread titled "Looking for a second body for Weddings", and my first thought was "good thing it wasn't for a funeral".

I'm pretty sure hociR has corrupted my mind...

And I probably should stay away from this thread!

Oh good. I had one of those was cameras five years ago but it didn't fit well in my backpack and prepping for a shoot was a real PITA.

It was Olympus. I checked.

All quiet on the western front?

I get nervous waiting for the barrages to commence
