Good spot. I certainly missed that.

What did Phil Schiller say? "Can't Innovate My Ass". or "Can't Innovate, My Ass".

But when he said that, was he really talking about how big Pete Oppenheimer's ass is getting..?

Ahem... Nokia Refocus.

Plus, now Nokia is an American company, the no matter how much Apple tries to convince them, the US Patent office is unlikely to ignore this prior art.

Thanks for creating a new account to spew the same disproven crap that we’ve already covered.

Just shut up and go away.

Mmm...

I am about the farthest thing form a camera expert there is.

I've been doing a lot of surfing/research about cameras in the last several days...

My 17-year-old (18 in January) thinks she is interested in photography. She has suggested to her parents and to me that instead of buying her separate Christmas, birthday and graduation gifts -- that we pool the money so she can spend $1,500-$2,000 on a good DSLR camera, lenses, filters, bag, accessories...

Her dad feels that $2,000 is too much for a starter camera -- especially since she only thinks she is interested.

As it turns out, I have some old film DSLR kit that my mother bought in the mid 1970s. This includes bag, filters, tripod, and lenses -- Pentax K-Mount lenses.

So part of my research has been to determine if we could buy only a camera base and Pentax adapter, period -- use the Pentax lenses and existing kit as a more [financially] gentle introduction to DSLR photography. Then if things work out, she can earn money by filming weddings, church and sports events -- and buy lenses, etc. later, from a position of need and knowledge.

Yeah, $2k is in the range of the low end professional SLRs. Might even find a full frame at that price, and that's simply not necessary to get some practice.

A digital SLR kit can be had new for $500 if you look around. Good old manual lenses are a decent thing to start with.

I know this is a Dr. Who reference, but I have no idea what it means. Please explain.
