Hi All,

I just wanted to say hello and make a shout out for my channel where I review old cameras! I'm a lover of large format and making videos about analogue and photographic history.

Eventually here, I'd like to be able to make some episodes about the folks here that have some exceptional talent.

For now, check out my latest episode of my show here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6CRAr6oSZJI&feature=autoshare

Looking forward!

RCR

Me first! Me first! I'd like to be interviewed (this pays money, right?). I haven't been interviewed since that little problem w/ the authorities back in 1969. Oh wait, that wasn't an interview, per se. I don't think it was, anyway. Is interrogated the same as interviewed? I'll be out in a few more years, so as long as you're not in a hurry.....

Well, they both involve someone asking you questions and being interested in your answers, so yes, they're the same!

Welcome to APUG Danny! I really enjoyed watching some of your videos - they're very engaging and to the point, unlike some others that I watch.

Welcome to APUG, Danny. I just watched your recent video on the two Canon units. I learned something new today, although admittedly it's over 30 years since I touched any type of 35mm camera. And, those were all Nikon units back in those days.

In due time! I just made a size-able investment so I could continue to make videos. In about a year I'll be doing more stuff and a bigger part of the community.

So you're fine with coming here, for free, and grabbing eyeballs for your videos but won't even subscribe for the equivalent of about 11 cents a day??

Maybe making contacts, notifying the subscriber base of a resource they may enjoy...etc.

All good reasons it seems.

Thanks for reminding me my subscription has lapsed, I had not realized it. And it was fairly recently.

Being here since 2003 however, and a subscriber for vast majority of those years, plus other things I've done for this site and in promoting it, has more than made up for it.

Like here:

(there was a url link here which no longer exists)

The guy up above who came and promoted his site and used APUG to drive business has not been here since last August. Imagine that.
Guess I don't like when people use the site to drive business yet cannot toss a few shekels into the pot.

We've just witnessed the problem that is inherent in a 2 tier membership: subscribers calling out non-subscribers. Folks should become subscribers because they want to join a warm and welcoming community, not because they are shamed into it.

Thanks OP, for sharing your videos. I count that as value added.

They have none Frank If after several thousand posts they had any shame they would put their hands in their pockets and make a financial contribution to the forums running costs.

Isn't that sweet they are fighting back and forth like an old married couple. "Say good night, Gracie." "Good night Gracie"
