....I saw it coming !! Seriously though, our leaders in this country, politicians & bankers et al are a joke, and now the taxpayers are going to suffer (maybe for the next 10 years or more !:( )

Here's a wallpaper for ye: its a 5 shot panorama (squashed, to fit desktop !).

I don't know. I'll find out later & post back.

Is there a way to manipulate the polarizer? ie. do you have to move it around, twist it, stamp on it !! to get it to focus ?

After much messing around, I eventually found my problem was the Polarizer on the 40-150mm lens. It took me a while to get it off, but now I'm getting much better (sharp) pictures. Any ideas why the...

Nice reading there.
One point you forgot to mention in relation to Compacts & D-SLR's, is the sensor size. Its much larger in D-SLR's.

Samples: taken 'hand-held'.
The 40-150mm is more blurry than the 100-300mm when zoomed in.

The lens in question is this one : http://www.wrotniak.net/photo/43/zd-040-150.html

I'm not using an adapter for this. I do use one for the other manual lenses, the Pentax 100-300mm f4.5 & Centon...

I recently purchased a D-SLR, an Olympus E510, with 4 lenses. One of the lenses is a older Zuiko 40-150mm f3.5/4.5 (non-ED).
But....I haven't managed to take a non-blurred photo with it yet, note:...

Sony DSC_P43 Very good compact.
Olympus E510 D_SLR, 4 lenses (2 manual).

Note: I've just bought the E510 and amazed at what can be done with it. It'll take a while to learn all the features, but...

I downloaded the new 8.04 (Alternate CD) and I got a similar problem last nite, it fails at Install Software section !!!
My download mirror was the 'heanet.ie' site.
Note: I've never had a problem...

Have a good one........

Myself & a co-worker had an argument/discussion about how SAFE are these virtual OS's. He was convinced that the host could get infected (via MEMORY, ie. both OS's are using same physical memory) by...

I just tried out Dreamlinux (via VMWare Player) and its definitley a breath of fresh air. I know Ubuntu can be transformedinto anything you like, ie. desktop tweaks etc, but Dreamlinux works out of...

I'm presuming that the Gnome & KDE & XFCE development teams have enough on their agenda without also worying about the kernel, hardware, ie. I think thay are a specialised group focusing on desktop...

I downloaded VMWarePlayer & then the Dreamlinux appliance. The whole process was very quick & hassle-free (except for the download time). But I'm VERY impressed with Dreamlinux, definitley for...

Is it possible to run a VM that was created with VirtualPC (2004) on one PC & 'play' it in VMWare player on another PC ????

Be careful, someday you will be too old to marry, and that will be your lucky day.......ouch again :)

Is she hot because you have her chained to the cooker.......ho ho ho, only kiddin, as I get a slap from my wife, ouch. But seriously, my wife swears by Ubuntu, she loves the games. So if I dont have...

I'll bet $Bill$ uses Ubuntu, secretely........ho ho ho ho :)

To n3tfury: i was reading down thru the article & hoping he would say, yeah, I'm using Ubuntu, and I find it a very versatile distro, but I guess he doesnt do distros, he just hacks at the kernel so...

Just wondering if your Gutsy Live CD worked for you ........ !!
Pls state what version, AMD64, or i386, etc.

Graphics & CLI's are probably booring to Linus, he probably prefers to comunicate in binary......only kidding :)

The thing I find facinating/interesting about Linus, Linux, FreeSoftware. Linus...

Quote from an interview: "Funnily enough, the only distributions I tend to refuse to touch are the "technical" ones, so I've never run Debian, because as far as I'm concerned, the whole and only...
