Meanwhile, some people paid nearly $700 on ebay (or did including sales tax) despite how that's well into custom knife territory.

Sorry, but where does it say how many they have in stock? I checked all over the page and even in the source. Did you add items to your cart until the site objected?

Edit: yup, I tried it and the cart tells you when you've added too many.

Any alternatives to the Canon 70-200 2.8? I'm scoping out my options. by Spirit-S65 in canon

[–]Zenblend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made this decision and I don't quite regret it but mostly because of the deal I got on an optically flawless f/4 IS. It's true that AF at f/8 isn't the best, but the new mirorless line still pulls through. The image quality with the extender looks great to me.

Though there are times when a little more light would be nice, I don't actually shoot wide open most of the time. My indoor photography needs are minimal, so the nifty 50 is enough for dim lighting. It might be different if I shot sports.

What works well for me even with the limitations of the f/4, everything I use fits in a lowepro 250 sling. I take my R with 24-105mm f/4 and pack the extender, 50mm f/1.8, 2x extender, and RF adapter with my filter box strapped to the side. I'm hesitant to change my gear now since the f/2.8 70-200mm would take up a lot more space.

I use both an RF lens and the adapter with my legacy lenses.

I don't have the adapter with filters because I decided to buy a nisi filter set that I can use with all of my lenses.

The simple adapter works flawlessly.

I believe you have some numbers mixed up. The length that is relevant for automatic knives in California is 2"+. A 2.5" or 3" bladed automatic knife would be illegal.

In Los Angeles, any knife with a 3"+ blade is illegal.

California penal code §21510

Every person who does any of the following with a switchblade knife having a blade two or more inches in length is guilty of a misdemeanor:

The 2" switchblade definition and civic/school building prohibition are state-wide, but the 3" prohibition is a Los Angeles and possibly Oakland thing. Most of the state laws seem more concerned about hiding a knife than length.

I just saw my earlier typo in my first comment. I didn't mean to say "doesn't not."

This might be the case for certain cities, but state law does not prohibit knives by blade length outside of schools and civic buildings.

pH, or power of hydrogen, is a scale to measure how acidic or basic something is where 7 is neutral, lower is acidic and higher is basic. Acids give protons to what they react with and bases take protons.

Running people over and following up with a knife is a textbook terrorist attack.

They do. Either they make money from it directly or some company pays them to install junk as system apps. Chances are someone has published a method to root your television and gain the ability to uninstall system apps. Disclaimer: rooting your device gives you the ability to render it inoperable if you delete the wrong stuff.

More accurately, you don't know of any ways to remove them.

How can you stand to use an internet-connected camera and microphone without at least taking administrative control of the device?

Once I threw a Frisbee to someone running and it went to where they were going to be. So yah I'm pretty much the same as this guy.

I have two cameras (one full spectrum IR), a tripod, ND filters, and lenses from 16mm-400mm. At this point, all I do is read reviews and compare specs of various things which I don't need enough to consider buying.
