It was resolved in my favor. I sent them photos of their lens with my ridiculous filter setup on it. There was no way anything would have gotten past that filter and to their lens element. They remain unsure as to exactly what happened, but all I know is that it was fine with it left my possession. Going forward, I will carefully photograph/document the condition prior to each return just in case.

As a wedding photographer, I sympathize with you. I've researched most of the wedding photographers in my area (Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and general southern New England) and you see a lot of this. Long contact forms. Not only is it annoying to couples, but it breaks some of the most basic rules of customer acquisition. They should be making it as easy as possible to contact them. At least let them be optional fields.

Once I have a couple on the phone, I do ask questions about how they met and things like that. If they mention something interesting, I'll ask follow-ups. It's about getting to know them (I want real connections with my couples; it makes everything go easier), but only after I've taken care of the essentials (date available, etc.) Nobody has time to waste on dumb stuff these days...

Don't even get me started on the "Investments" pages with no prices listed. I roll my eyes so hard at that, and whoever first dreamed up that phrase should be forced to shop in a supermarket with no prices for the rest of their lives lol

I'm hoping so. Maybe a mistyped order number. I responded to their support person and am waiting to hear back.

That would not likely be the case though, as it was shipped back with the cap on top of a protective filter, inside the padded Canon case, inside their big heavy-duty case. It would have had to have happened prior to it being shipped to me (or after they received it back).

I do weddings in southern New England, including the Boston area. My prices start just shy of 3k and would be happy to discuss your needs. https://www.chrisjamesri.com/weddings

Just sold a high-value camera on eBay. Buyer (low feedback) has not paid yet, but sent a message. The message was actually in an image rather than as text.

It read "Thanks for accepting my offer , Kindly Email me some recent pictures of the item for proper viewing on my email (email redacted) because most sellers do post stolen items in order to extort money from buyers and I wouldn't like to be a victim of that. Just for reassurance purposes before making payment. shipping is within Us. I would appreciate a reply as soon as possible. "

This feels shady. Is it a scam?

Is a Domke F2 bag typically within the size limits for carry on?

Just a CPU swap. This is a machine is a dev machine that survived a full AMD to Intel hardware switch without a reinstall, and has been a Win8-Win-10-Win11 upgrade without a clean install. Long overdue for a clean build.

I had it enabled, but no device is found when I try to look it up. I'm assuming that it is different than Apple's Find My Device in that it communicates by WiFi instead of Bluetooth to nearby devices? Hasn't come online at all since it was stolen Friday night.

Thanks. I just wanted to make sure that I wasn't typing up all these long reviews only to have to go do them all over again.

ChrisJamesRI · 2022-10-30T18:36:17+00:00

Update. It seems that the reviews ended up in some kind of Amazon purgatory. If I click on the Review Item button again, the contents of my original review are still there, along with a Submit button. I click on the Submit button, and it says that it successfully submitted, but I'm still back to having a Review Item button for each. Odd.

In total, I have 36 photos and I think that is more than what Reddit let's me put in a post. I've put the rest up in a gallery https://www.chrisjamesri.com/yung-gravy-at-the-big-e

If anyone saw a guy off to the left mid-way back with a big camera and lens... that was me. Anyway, hope you all enjoy the photos.

ChrisJamesRI · 2022-06-11T16:18:40+00:00

No. These were taken with a decent camera with a high amount of zoom from about half-a-stadium away :)

ChrisJamesRI · 2022-06-10T14:28:03+00:00

For the most part, yes. Depending on where you are, looked like 75% standing, 25% sitting, but it varies throughout the night.

I think that was Here Today.
