I've always loved my Macro.

Still have my original (circa 1974) Rokkor lenses.

For digital photography I believe they only fit a Sony body atm.

You guys are welcome to have a loan (as you'd need an adapter)!

Also have Rokkor 16mm,28mm & 200mm with impressive focal lengths.

Looks good :)

I want a Macro lense, but don't think I'd use it nearly enough to justify it. Would be great to have but :)

Yeah same, I don't think I would use a proper macro lens anywhere near enough. I've been happy with the results from my EF-S 55-250mm though, it can work pretty well for some close up shots. Heres another of those birds i put up on the last page, they came back to visit again today haha

I can't get over how intelligent parakeets & parrots are!

Great picture BTW.

I had alot of fun with my camera at F1 this year, doing some tracking shots at low shutter speeds to get some motion in the photos. Its just to hard with fences and roof posts and crap everywhere, but started getting the hang of it. The speed of the F1 cars doesnt help either lol

Finished more photos from F1, Theres a few of them and they are pretty repetative (but what can you do from the same grand stand every day), so sorry in advance :)

Nice, if only that fence wasn't there!

Thanks :)

Yeah, the ones near me aren't too afraid of people either, as long as you don't move too fast or make much noise. Makes for some decent photo ops if the camera is nearby lol

Absolutely!

One of my patients was a curator of a NZ Zoo.

When I asked him about their penchant for rubber windscreen wipers, he told me that when they're really bored they'll go for tyre walls too!

Arguably the most intelligent of all parrots!

Our little fellah...

* loves car rides

* on night drives, he can tell when we're 3 turns from home > chirps

* on night drives, he chirps when the lights go green

* he goes back to his cage on day drives as we pull into the driveway

* has a large vocabulary

* whistles when I come in the front door

* wolf whistles when on top of the shower screen and the naked person enters the shower

* toilet trained before coming out

* goes to the toaster when he wants "toasty toast"

etc.....

Very nice :)

Id still really love to get some nice lightning shots like that but it never storms here lol

Do you mind if I ask what program you used to process those photos?

I process my RAW files with Silkypix and then they are finished in Photoshop. Not much is done to them. The lightning photos only have white balance correction. The landscapes I have just adjusted the histogram curve with luminosity masks. Also some dodge and burn.

    • The Frenchy's kit is the way to go forward. A modern compressor that weighs about 1/2 as much, is at least twice as efficient, and will do a good job on R134a. And of course the kit has everything else you need to connect it up and have it work properly.
    • Hey all , I am in the process of having the AC system in my r32 GTST converted from r12 to r134a and I’m being told my compressor has gone bad and I will need a new one. I was wondering if anybody has any suggestions for what is the best route to go aside from dropping $1500 on a new oem one? I did see that Frenchy’s performance garage offers a kit to mount a Toyota compressor, has anybody actually used this kit on their car? Or is there anywhere I could purchase just a clutch? Any help is appreciated.
    • Well, your RB20 ECU loom won't have wires for the boost solenoid, that boost sensor, and possibly one or two other things. There could be differences in seemingly random things like the charcoal canister purge solenoid, because the 25DET has to handle boost in the vacuum system and the 20DE does not. I don't know - I haven't looked. It is very likely that all the most important things are same-same, being the main sensors like AFM, CAS, etc, and the injectors and ignition. Not that you'll need the AFM for the Haltech anyway. I would suggest that you would seriously want to sit down with the pinouts for both ECUs and just go through them and highlight green what is the same, orange what is different/missing, and make a plan from there. It's not going to be difficult. It will either be the same or need to be fixed.
    • yeaaa that's why I haven't done any wiring to the stock ecu harness because I have the haltech, but then that leads me to the other question of "is the pnp harness really plug and play?" or would I have to still switch some pins/wires over because the pnp is for the rb25det neo harness, and not for the rb20de neo harness. was really hoping to find something to spoon feed me since so many people have done rb20neo + t conversions, but man this is rough.
    • Temu raptor, lol. At least the owner isn't your typical ranger danger lot
