Well, for that to happen, Intel would have to start making integrated graphics that didn't suck. Or, if you've decided the Desktop is Dead, it's already that way on tablets and smartphones . . . which sell more than desktops & notebooks do now.

My wife knitted this for the birthday of our FDiL (Future Daughter in Law), who's a fan of the long-running British SF TV series 'Doctor Who'. It's fifteen feet long, and an accurate Series 12 or some such reproduction. Time machine not included, but the hat was. |

Unpacking is easy - just get a bag of cheap stick-on bows, put one on every box, and pretend it's your birthday. "A box of dishes? For me? Oh, you shouldn't have!"
:lol:

Well Amy, just remember, no matter how bad the packing process seems......
You have the unpacking to look forward to. :lol:

I think, among other records, this thread can now claim to be the most mod-heavy thread on the forum. :lol:

Metric sockets I can deal with but that (inevitable) ONE star shaped fastener really Torx me off.

Good to know; in more and more places it's pretty reliable to get online.
I suspect most backup evangelists have learned the hard way. I've certainly had some close calls.

I've seen her picture! She has that "I like you - I'll kill you last" look. I thought that was normal for cats. It was for mine - when she wasn't doing the "You're an idiot - you know that, don't you?" look.

Remember, with great power comes great responsibility!
PS: A retired friend just got home from a month (or more) of staying with family. He said the first thing they were going to do was walk around touching things and saying "this is mine, this is mine, this is mine, too..."

I found one just like ours on a gov't auction site - 14x64, 3 bedrooms. The 3rd BR was a large closet. Power & teen problems aside, the good thing about your paid-for home is you can buy when you want to, not when you have to. If you have to walk away from a deal, you aren't any worse off.

M28/2 & K135/2.5. Shower, haircut, photographs, then listing.
Of course I have to find the Sell button. All I know is the Buy button. ;)
EDIT: It's just too good on an MX.

Over the top.
The roll should always be oriented so the paper unrolls over the top and outwards, like the roll on the left.
Any other way is incorrect.

I have to say that I am having a blast with this combo right now even though I have other very nice lenses.

Thank you for all the helpful advice.
Good news - it's not the camera or the sensor!
I bought a new SD card and the problem persisted, so it's not the SD card either.
My card reader in my computer stopped working recently so I bought a USB Card Reader adaptor, and I think that's where the problem is.
When I plugged in a USB cable directly between my camera and my computer, the photos were all 100% fine.
What a relief...

18-55 is better than most give it credit for. The 18-50dc is as well. The 17-x sigma and tamrons are great but typically more than that.
