brobostigonmorning boys and girls.09:25
foobarryback from holiday in cornwall. spent most of it puking with the rest of the family and wanting to die09:44
MartijnVdSCornwall isn't that bad is it?09:45
MartijnVdSNot when I was there anyway09:45
foobarryit is when your baby carries a contagious virus in her belly09:45
brobostigonoh dear.09:45
MartijnVdS:(09:46
foobarrywife was so sad as we went with her wider family and we couldn't see them09:46
foobarrytook some photos to pretend we had a nice time though09:47
brobostigonusing G+'s auto-awesome,09:49
foobarryhad a nice walk up roughtor on first day though. love that place09:52
brobostigon:)09:53
foobarrywhen using AEB+-2 on your camera, does it automatically take 3 shots at once?09:56
foobarryon one's camera.09:56
MartijnVdSdepends on the camera09:57
MartijnVdSOn mine, I have to press the shutter 3 times09:57
MartijnVdSit's not automatic09:57
foobarry. Focus and press the shutter button completely. The three bracketed shots will be taken in this sequence: Standard exposure, decreased exposure, and increased exposure.09:57
foobarryIf you use AEB with [  ] (single shooting), press the shutter button three times to take the three bracketed shots. If [  ] (continuous shooting) has been set and you press the shutter button completely, the three bracketed shots will be taken continuously in this sequence:09:57
foobarryif you have to press it 3 times, and you don't have a tripod, that would be failsome, surely?09:58
MartijnVdSfor HDR, yes09:58
MartijnVdSfor "picking the best", the fel millimeters sdon't matter09:59
foobarrygenerally use AEB for increasing the DR, for Sky+detail10:01
foobarryamazon delivered something to my "safe place"..nothing there :(10:09
bigcalmGood morning peeps :)10:38
bigcalmMorning moreati10:58
moreatiyo10:58
bigcalmmoreati: I still have your clock/temp sensor. I hope you have been keeping time okay without it10:58
moreatiyes, thanks, that's one of two and I never bother to set the clock on either10:59
moreatiwas it of use?11:03
bigcalmYep, it showed that my own temp sensor is correct11:06
bigcalmOr as wrong as yours ;)11:06
foobarrydidn't they keep 3 altimeters on ships?11:06
foobarryso they knew which was wrong?11:06
penguin42do you mean altimeters?11:07
foobarryprobably nor11:07
foobarrynot11:07
penguin42I suspect you mean chronometers11:07
foobarry*eters11:07
* penguin42 would assume ships don't have that much use for altimeters, since they're almost always at sealevel11:07
moreatiI may have to steal that joke :)11:08
bigcalm:)11:09
penguin42moreati: I'm just waiting for some particularly smart mariner to tell me some odd reason why that's not true11:09
moreatipenguin42: I suppose if heath robinson needed to track progress through a flight of locks11:11
penguin42true. I mean something like the panama canal or whatever11:11
popeymorning11:34
popeyish11:34
penguin42yeh, it's close11:41
foobarrygot sucked in to the zinio 40% off offer :(15:07
bigcalmWassat?15:08
foobarryzinio sent a promo code to get 40% off subscription of any mag15:09
foobarry*any mag they do15:09
foobarryi hate digital mags as i like to keep mine. don't have confidence i'd see mine again if zinio went under.15:09
foobarryand it wasn't even the mag i want to subscribe to (they don't have it). but i subscribed to something else for £17, compared to £40 for the ideal mag15:10
foobarrypromo code is MAY40 until may27th15:11
