So it's not a exactly a weapon for self defence.
I also thought that for a gun to be legal it also had to be safe to use
or be unusable.
In the UK a car that isn't safe to drive isn't considered legal.
You shouldn;t even have your car parked on a public road without a M.O.T
cert unless you've registared it as off the road.

Ah a gun is now essential in the US ? ;-)
I guess it's down to the individual whether or not they look after their
weapon of choice.

One would hope so.
But I do wonder whether they are cheap ones from china or Taiwan
or if not why not they seem to fake almost everything else.

Because there were something like 50,000 people involved, the firearms had
to be written down in a book and the owners eventually paid compensation.
While police stations have the resources to manage that sort of thing
specialist 'firearms officers' (not the armed ones, the ones who administer
the firearms licensing system) did not, at that time, have the necessary
time to do the task.
The job is now carried out by uniformed staff who are not full police
officers. My local chap is actually a retired soldier who spend 25 years
as an armourer and knows a great deal more about guns than any policeman I
ever met.

More or less, yes...
There are some exceptions, such as antiques, but even some of those require
licenses

If it's a really heavy or large lens, I don't like to depend on the neck
strap, plus the neck strap can be painful after a while. I consider the neck
strap in this case to just be a safety feature- if I lose grip on the
camera, the neck strap will stop it.
I frequently go for long walks with a camera and sometimes a long lens. I
usually carry the camera backwards, holding the camera in my hand with the
lens resting along my forearm. Of course the neck strap is still around my
neck or wrapped around my wrist. You can get a small metal plate that allows
you to attach a neck strap to lens tripod socket. I've considered using two
neck straps, one attached to the camera and the other attached to the lens
with the strap lengths adjusted so that the lens hangs down but is partially
supported by the strap.
As for the lens mount issue, if the manufacturer has provided a tripod
socket on the lens, then I figure it should be used. Several of my lenses
are substantially heavier than the camera and would probably strain the lens
mount if the lens wasn't supported.

Thanks for all of the replies. The picture from Geoff is hilarious,
but I guess it is real for those who frequents the sport events and
arenas.
I seem to notice that with some of the cheap plastic zoom lenses, if I
hold the lens instead of the camera body, I can feel something moving
on the lens barrel or some kind of flexibility on the barrel (not
solid feeling as opposed to solid steel barrel and glass lens). Just
curious on what is the best way to handle the camera with such heavy
lenses.

That's duct tape. Gaffer isn't shiny and made with black cloth and - and,

I am not sure how large a percentage in these newsgroups are still
using old film cameras, or utilizing old lenses for their new digital
cameras. I strongly feel that there are much more that I originally
thought. There are two forums that I knew of, which appear to be very
active and have lots of participants :
http://forum.mflenses.com
http://forum.manualfocus.org
These 2 sites do not show where the organization is being made.
Perhaps the first one from Eastern Europe (?).
Do anyone know where these organizations are located (I mean the
country or continent)? Just curious!

Actually he stated it so poorly as to make one consider calling the
insane asylum to pick him up.
The rule of thirds can be restated as the "rule of avoid centering
unless that is a strong composition in itself." or
The "tool of thirds" (Freeman Patterson) to help one consider
composition when shooting.
The real purpose of a grid (to me) is not so much for composing the
subject within the frame as to set up verticals and horizontals in the
image. Coupled to a geared head, it's a very nice tool for that.

What kind of seasoning do you reckon? Steak spices? Col. Sanders
secret herbs and spices? Certainly cooked to be sure.
Of course he doesn't realize that the camera makes every pixel "count"
(photons that is).
I'd strike "enormously funny" and use "pathetic". YMMV.

In the old film cameras era, I recall that when you purchase an SLR
camera, it usually comes with a soft or a hard (leather) case. The
case is attached to the camera via a screw to the tripod mount at the
bottom of the camera. I wonder why they do not have any more of this
type of camera case? Since it is attached like a "skin" to the
camera, I usually did not need to buy a camera soft pouch case. The
case will protect the camera outer shell from dust, and perhaps little
bumps; although it will not likely help to reduce impact if the camera
falls. On a second thought, I also wonder if the new padded camera
cases that you can get at the camera stores nowadays can protect the
camera if it falls either. Anyone has some thought about this?
Thanks for the info/discussion.

CCC started years ago with padded cases for hikers. I think many may have
had a knock and suvived. as fot the Ever ready cas. Once you have cut out
the openings for the rear scree the menu controlls and lots of other buttons
There is nothing left of the case.
But there are some special armour cases that protect and allow the playing
with buttons

Just curious to know how the lens barrel is moving up or down when you
press the camera's button. It must drain a lot of energy from the
battery to do this. I recall the old autofocus lens was a monster
size. Is there a diagram somewhere in the web which shows how this is
accomplished? Is there some kind of a spiral screw along the outer
skin of the lens barrel? I also assume that the bigger the lens, the
more energy needed to move the lens during autofocusing.
Thanks for the info.

Wow, what a demanding species to find and shoot. He can't even tell the
difference between common crows that can be shot from anyone's kitchen
window and the lesser-common but also dense ravens. I'd educate you on the
quick method to tell the difference, even when all you have are badly
underexposed over-sharpened silhouettes like your snapshots, but I love
watching you spew your ignorance to the world. Hint: I just checked a few
popular bird-advice websites online, and like most websites, they too have
managed to regurgitate an error in their "knowledge" from unknowingly
parroting other online x-spurt idiots like themselves. Too funny!
For something even more challenging, why don't you go photograph pigeons
downtown while you're at it? Doing so demands using a "professional" tripod
for sure. You're such an advanced and experienced wildlife photographer.
You better hand out more of your sage advice to everyone. You don't want to
deny the world the vast depths of your advanced "wildlife-photographer"
skills, do you?
LOL!!!
By the way, let us know when you learn to use your automatic P&S-DSLR
exposure settings properly. You've totally failed in these. But then,
you're the "pro"! You know what you are doing! Just like any "pro" you only
post the photos that show your prowess. I see how you've done just that! I
bet all of your photos are "keepers" if this is how you evaluate "keepers".
LOL!!!!!!!! This just gets more and more hilarious.
Oh man, I don't think I've laughed so hard in days. Since the last time one
of you idiots posted something this priceless. I just love you "pro"
DSLR-Trolls. The funniest, least talented, and stupidest group of fools
I've ever ran into.
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Snapshot much? LOL!!!!!!

My 4 month old Canon 50D has just developed a problem with the thumb
wheel located just behind the shutter release. No function that
requires its use functions anymore. Among other things, I can no longer
adjust the ASA value.
Has anyone else seen a similar problem?
I plan on calling Canon for warranty repair next Monday, but wanted to
see if anyone else has had a similar problem.
In 4 years of use, my older 20D never had any problems.
