That's a bit clever

though surely there should be "your all gay"?

there were all sorts

alas, too many made it look a bit silly
maybe i should make a set... "select praise"... "select insult"... "select meme"...

uniross "photo" rechargables

they're 1700 mAh (milliamp-hours?), and my finepix A204 can last about 10 hours on a single pair, LCD turned on and everything.

Speaking of digital cameras..

does anyone know the cheapest [>£50] and smallest digital camera I can get, which still produces recognisable pictures.

they didn't recommend rechargables for mine

i have no idea why now either...

(

rechargables generate a lot of heat

due to a different chemical process-thing
if it's a smaller, more intricate or cheaper camera it might not stand up to the warmth they create. my camera is made of rather sturdy plastic, which makes it a bit bulkier but proably heat-resistant

if you take fab pictures like that

you should get a LOMO
- doesn't need batteries either

(

hmmmm

i have a lomo - i think.. i got a free ting from somewhere - i never got it developed.. well actually i did... you sent it back to them and then they put it on their site - but then i forgot my password.. bit bummed about that actually.

(

popt_art, Thu 15 May 2003, 22:36, archived)

the lomo website

is one of the best nowadays

(

lomos

suck. overpriced, keep breaking. and they do need batteries. stupid watch batteries.

(

Reverend Dan, Thu 15 May 2003, 22:37, archived)

i've had one for 6 years

never any problems
never had to change the watch battery
solid little camera, good lens ...

i just like my digcam :)

(

popt_art, Thu 15 May 2003, 22:48, archived)

i have a canon digcam too

and i love it
but i love my lomo more :)

(

magoo, Thu 15 May 2003, 22:52, archived)

i will investigate further : )

(

i bought a second hand rollei

for half the price, with a 46mm lens. it is far better than my crappy lomo

(

Reverend Dan, Thu 15 May 2003, 22:45, archived)

depends what you want

a camera to do. a lomo is just a means to an end ...

(

magoo, Thu 15 May 2003, 22:51, archived)

same thing as a lomo

but better. and not a hundred quid

(

Reverend Dan, Thu 15 May 2003, 22:55, archived)

only a lomo

can take a lomograph ;)

(

magoo, Thu 15 May 2003, 23:01, archived)

for that!
