Bargains over on adverts recently on some incredible film cameras.

I know the Sony is more expensive but it's probably much higher spec with better after sales and parts service compared to the Olympia.

Come on, don't forget that even less experienced people could read this and could fall for that money trap.
That camera is the worst sh;te I have every seen and is not worth €5! And does not matter what sticker is on it.
It would made more sense to buy FF shares before the elections that to buy that piece of crap.

I don't think anyone reading my post would fall for it. One guy was selling one and after the ad disappeared he sent me a pm saying he would let me have it for the bargain price of €200. I'm tempted to meet him and run a roll through it just to see how it would come out. Seems there's a few of them up there, all the same seller with different user names?

Jesus, I had clicked on that earlier too. It loaded in another window and when I went to view it the video had moved on to ice hockey and had no sign of the previous video.

I follow Birdwatch on Facebook and noticed this post today (my bloody facebook updates are all over the place I don't get things until hours after they're posted ! :mad:)

BirdWatch Ireland
‎(JD) For those who missed Brian Carruthers hair raising run in on Saturday - thought i'd repost it as a warning to all birding in the Dublin area.
"WARNING to one and all, eventful morning on the Bull Wall,
arrived at the main causeway around 6-15am, a few cars there already,
was there about 15 mins when noticed 2 lads
watching me (the c......amera equipment), they approached me as if they were walking pass me, one started talking as if he new about photography,
while the other ...pretended to see something behind me,
I stepped back a little while still talking, next the first guy lunched at me,
slipping in the marsh, trying to grab my camera, I shoved him aside
and then used my sturdy drop down Mono-pod as a baton on the second lad,
both ran as quick as they could. So in case they came back,
I moved right down to the old wooden causeway,
checking that was not been followed, and started birding again ."

Mods feel free to repost that anywhere suitable if you think that's serious and helpful.

I was on a photowalk in LImerick City two weekend ago.
Here's little video of my photos that I made (very simply through Picasa 3):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GSsLyA87s0I
.

It's not very exciting but I was just playing with the tools in Picasa 3 and my first time making a video. I should have added a soundtrack...

I have three sets of photos (my favs from the walk) on- my website

Cheers,
Pa.

The Bella 44, 127 roll film, 4x4 cm shots. Used to be discontinued but from last year IIRC Rollei do some emulsion in it. There are a couple of rather nice cameras that take 127, they're like little baby 120 cameras.

has cork had a spate of kiddy fiddlers taking photos in playgrounds?

something tells me that the stock in trade of people distributing paedophile material is not of kids in playgrounds.

Fair enough Magicbastarder, but I would feel a bit uncomfortable having an unknown photographer taking pics of my kids in the playground tbh. I know this is silly, since I could be in that situation that I would be the one taking pics of other people 's kids playing, but it is icky to think someone else would be taking the pic... unless I knew that person/that person's photography.

granted, but this strikes me as a law being passed for a phenomenon which doesn't exist.
