"Mmm...the Brokeh on that is outstanding!"

[Stephanie Brim]

I figured I'd share this with some people who would really understand.

01:13:21] <Stephanie_> I'm trying to decide between 28 and 35mm and between the faster Ultrons and the slower Skopars.
01:14:03] <Wintre> To buy?
01:14:05] <Wintre> Aren't you broke?
01:14:14] <Stephanie_> This is for after I get out of broke.
01:14:16] <Wintre> I'm sure somebody's made a pun on brokeh before
01:14:24] <Stephanie_> i'm going to borrow the Skopar next.
01:14:33] <Stephanie_> It'll take a while before I borrow the lenses and make a decision.
01:14:39] * Wintre nods
01:14:55] <Wintre> Brokeh I guess is how good something looks when it's outside of your depth-of-affordability

It's amazing how lens results (pictures from lenses, MTF charts, discussions on rff/pnet) look more beautiful when you can't afford the lens in question. 🙂

Oh, yeah, that's a keeper, all right... much better than SOFA. Nothing like a clever pun on a Saturday morning. 😀

Hmm... fuzzy finances...

I was a poor college student long, long ago with very expensive taste in cameras. I know how it is.

Food, F2a, Food, 135mm F2 Nikkor, Food, Nikon Photomic F.

Finish School, more money, more cameras. Incentive.

I love it! This forum is better than the Sunday paper. 😛

I go for expensive stuff usually, after my automatic canon, i only bought a fed 3, it was too great and too cheap to neglect it. However i go for expensive films and ti's really frustrating when u sometimes have to wait till u get enough money, or keep some rolls unprocessed due to the alck of money or when u pass everyday looking to the same nikon and then walk away cause u can't afford it!

I think this would make an excellent signature line...in fact i'm off to change mine right now!

But where is the guy with the Nikon glass that will respond to it with "my Nikon glass will give me nicer brokeh, and faster!" 😉

 

[Stephanie Brim]

Bringing this up again for old times' sake. Rings true once again, but I don't mind so much anymore. 🙂
