SnapperYep. I’m a Norfolk boy myself. But aren’t you also in Norfolk Moggy?
SnapperThe same day, in 1945, also saw the loss from 609 Squadron of F/Lt Raymond Gibson, who is buried at Reichswald Forest War Cemetery.
The Form 540 Records:
“Gibson, De Bruyn, Pagnam and Mountjoy were off at 09.30 and were given atarget as C.21 – Mortar positions in orchard. Traget could not be found and while orbiting intense light accurate flak came up from the area of Goch. Gibby was hit in the starboard tank and immediately burst into flames and crashed. Gibby did not have a chance and we have lost one one of our best and most popular pilots. Some guns were seen firing in edge of wood at 939447 and were attacked without results being observed.”
SnapperThank you Dan. I don’t mind at all.
SnapperWankels are great, a real turn on, throbbing away between your legs. On the one hand there was the deposit it left all over the floor, but on the other one flick of the wrist and it’d speed up and blow your mind. Great.
Yep, I would be happy to blow my wad with a Wankel.

Snapper110 is still available. Disc and 126 have seized now (but i’m certain someone somewhere will respool for you!)
Are you serious about the 14-400? That’s just nuts!
Imagine, an 8-800mm F1.4 straight-through, the size of a Coke can and with rear filrer holder…..digital sensor size equivalent of course. Especially with no pincushion / barrel distortion, minimum of chromatic aberration, and a 3-stop stabiliser, sealed from dust. For a hundred quid!

SnapperAlso my current flavour of the month for allowing me to place a memorial bench in their grounds.
Preffered pub for 609 Squadron when stationed at Duxford, and favoured accomodation for Leigh-Mallory.
SnapperBar my ugly mug appearing a couple of times, I thought the DVD was very bland. Compared to previous offerings it ranks very badly. Not worth the money.
The thing is, RA probably had pre-existing contracts with Sky which they couldn’t squirm out of. That doesn’t defend them – they could have changed that before signing if they’d been averse to showing it. I for one am pleased that they aren’t welcome back.
Incidentally, a 609 pilot from New Zealnd saw it on the news too – I bet that was pleasant for him, as he knew his friends were there and he himself had been smashed up in a crash during the war.
SnapperA quick two-minute read:
Disposable
“and even some supermarkets have ventured into the world of the disposable” They sell them, with branded packaging – they do not make them. In fact, a question for you, how many companies make C41 Colour negative film? Have a rough guess.
Compact
“One is the normal fixed lens compact and the other is a zoom where you can get closer to your subject but at the same time you are also in the same place. These cameras use the standard 35 mm film.”
You also have a twin lens, which shifts between a wide and a telephoto setting. They can use 35mm, APS, disc, 110, 126, digital media of all types…..
SLR
“hese can cost and thing from £200+ for the whole kit (lens and body) and sometimes £400+ just for the body of the camera.”
You can multiply that by at least 4 or 5 to get a top end figure.
“you can buy different lenses for different uses. These can range from a 14mm lens (also called a fish eye) to 400mm (telephoto). “
Not heard of 6mm and 8mm fisheyes? Or 500, 600, 800, 1000mm lenses? How about a nice 1200-1700mm zoom?
“It is possible to get a lens that fits all these different focal lengths which is the zoom lens.”
A 14-400mm zoom lens? Where can I get one of those please? Sounds very useful.
MEDIUM FORMAT
We’ve already been down that road.
Digital SLR
“many professionals who change to digital pick this type of camera because they have not lost lens focal points.”
What?
Now, how about large-format – ie 5×4, 7×5, 8×10, 11×14 cameras? THEY are studio cameras. You missed those.

Snapper“I have only so far put down what I know which is what I have been taught and if you don’t like it well it’s up to you”
In which case there are two scenarios:
1. You haven’t paid attention.
2. You have paid attention to idiots.
Plus of course I have given you the extra, missing information (taught) since you posted that – like it? Don’t like it? I’m completely ambivalent.
“This website will tell you about almost all the things you could know about photography”
“This website will also tell you about the pros and cons of each camera which includes digital media.”
Come on Adam. It tells us nothing of the sort. It gives false and incomplete information. Perhaps it would be an idea to research and verify a bit before bunging this kind of thing on the net – all it does is make you look stupid.
35mm and 120 film do indeed have advantages and disadvantages over each other, as do the cameras (as I well know, having worked professionally with both for over half of your lifetime) . That doesn’t change the fact that your brief description of 120 is pure fantasy.
Nermal is right. 35mm and 120 in the UK/Western Europe/First World are dying. They will be dead in the not too distant future. That leaves Third World and Developing World (plus reactionaries) as the only customers. I went digital last year, and have not once used 35mm OR my 6×9 camera since. That old fart will change when he can’t buy film without ordering from China. He’ll still say that his film is better than digital, even when it’s being printed on a non-optical lab (who is still making optical labs?)
