What is a selfie?

Is that part of the foul mouthed digit-speak spoken by digi-snappers?

So a selfie is seen chimpin' its own selfie.

So the digi-snappers do not even have a life ... so sad

oh - I sympazise for the selling of that Hasselblad... (or just selling anything...)
I have the reverse problem... I just got given three (!!) Hasselblads - they are on their way... and I don't really know what to do with them....

Actually been thinking of selling (ouch..) out of my (too) large stock of camera stuff....

There's a thread on it recently actually, also it's the Oxford English dictionary's word of the year, no, they've either made it legit, or themselves not... Lol

I'm sorry but frankly this is absolute bullshit.

I have toted an ELM and a 500C side by side in the same bag, one with an 80 and one with a 150. I couldn't tell you which camera made which roll of negatives. There is no vibration issue with a 500C or C/M other than those created by the user. I'm sorry but it simply isn't the case.

Given that you use a Mamiya 7 or an RZ, I think you're kind of pulling our collective legs.

You know something? Maybe I'm just old fashioned and a bit on the genial side. I just don't speak poorly to these people. When you write profanity on the internet, it stays out there.

I said "if I were to buy ANOTHER system" as in from now on...

Also, when I said "my kit" I was referring to my Large Format kit... which requires no batteries at all...

I'm confused, is this in reference to when I used the word "damn" in my sentence? I'm sorry if I offended you, however obviously if my language offends, then my images surely would too LOL

Maybe you should buy back some Hassy gear to put an end to it!

Good luck without your Hasselblad and other cameras. If I was ever to try to sell my 500 C/M Dana would take if off my hands, so end up with no money and having to borrow it from her rather than the other way around.

Medalta is still around if you guys ever want to come down again.

I almost bought a 500C/M and three much older lenses. It was a good deal, but decided against it and went home to hug my SQ-A system. haha.

I do love the Zeiss glass thought.

Then it will be put to good use rather than be a shelf queen.
