What do you prefer to use to protect your lens? Clear UV/skylight type filter or a lens cap?
Or other...
I do not agree with putting a filter on your lens that will alter the light transmission through your lens. Why put on a UV or skylight filter for an indoor shot?
I think you've seen these by now: http://www.flickr.com/photos/samfeinstein/tags/filterornot/
My choice is a plain optical glass, such as Nikon's NC "filters." A couple of my lenses still have UV filters and I keep saying I'll get plano glass the next time I order something else, but I keep forgetting.
A lens hood is probably the best thing for actual lens protection, except I also admit that I don't always have a lens hood attached. Not only that, a lens hood does little to keep dust from hitting the glass in a dusty environment, such as a race track or ... outdoors on a windy day. Also, a lens hood is twisted onto the lens and can pop off if you bang the camera against something or drop it. If you have an $8-to-10,000 600 or 800mm lens with an integral lens hood, I think you can rely on them for physical protection. Otherwise, a lenshood only is a deterrent to damage.

The Difference Between Cheap Cigarettes In Usa And Eastern Europe
It is easy to assume that all cheap cigarettes are same especially after reading all those high pitched advertising campaigns. See some of these captions for yourself. Cheap cigarettes at discount price, cheap Marlboro cigarettes, cheap discount cigarettes; these are the same words written all over, regardless of where these cheap cigarettes are coming from. These are particularly found on online discount cigarettes sale firms’ websites. Isn’t it time we get some facts straight?
Composition of cigarettes cheap or of high price is of course the same but they differ in their processing and quality of ingredients mixed into production process. They include, in general, tobacco, paper, filter materials and additives in addition to paper gum. But how do they differ, especially what is the difference between cheap cigarettes in USA and cheap cigarettes in Europe?
Well, there are several techno commercial differences between the cheap cigarettes from these places. First, the premium cigarettes like Marlboro, Camel, Winston, Virginia Slims, and Salem are manufactured and shipped from duty free zones in Eastern Europe. As they are tax free they become really cheap even considering shipping cost involved. There is a small catch though, your country may levy you import duty.
However, look at these low points. First of all, one who smokes Marlboro regularly may find imported cheap Marlboro cigarettes tasting differently. This is something which the regular smokers don’t want to agree. This may not truly be the case as same brands are manufactured in similar fashion everywhere barirng a few exceptions where regulations are slack or the franchisee manufacturers themselves circumnavigate the regulations. Sometimes, this may also be because the preservatives and additives not regulated in one country may be enjoying a valid status in another. But the difference may be attributed to be more because of the additional shelf and shipping time required than anything else.
There is another reason for cigarettes made in Eastern Europe to be cheap. The establishment and running costs there are pretty low when compared to establishing a similar sized factory in USA.
If you want to buy cheap cigarettes from your local shop you may be required to buy as many as 4-9 cartons in one go which isn’t the case in an online tobacco store where the basic price of a single carton itself is far lower than the lot you might have to purchase there locally. Internationally, popular brands like Marlboro, Camel, Winston, 555 and many are clandestinely smuggled sneaking through duty nets. This is driven by popularity they enjoy all around but in the process countries loose what is legitimately their tax revenue. However, from cigarette smokers’ point of view, they have become cheap so that they can afford to enjoy these international brands. The estimated total revenue loss to governments stood at US$ 30 billions.
There are several reasons why cigarettes cheap or not do not differ irrespective of their origin. If there is something that doesn’t favor Eastern European cigarettes, it is the shipping time they take to arrive at your door. Usually they are shipped through registered mail which takes about 2-3 weeks to reach you in USA. However, this is not quite a difference to a cigarette enthusiast that smokes regularly because she or he always has the options to buy in bulk which still works in her or his favor. By the way, have you tasted discount menthol and Marlboro made in Eastern Europe yet?

The right lighting system combined with a camera that offers a fast shutter speed can literally stop a bullet in mid-air. Well, it looks stopped when you see the picture. No, I'm not suggesting that you shoot the lights and watch them explode on impact. I'm referring to capturing the rotating bullet as an image. Studio strobes can be extremely powerful and can stop all sorts of motion without risk of blurred images.
If you plan to convert a spare bedroom, basement, or attic into a studio, you should give serious consideration to buying some studio strobes. This type of lighting is not cheap, but you can get name-brand lights that do a wonderful job for reasonable prices.
My studio lights are made by Novatron®, and I'm very happy with them. This company is known for its excellence in lighting equipment for both serious amateurs and professionals. It is common to find kits offered by Novatron and other quality manufacturers that will give you all the basics of good studio lighting. For less than $600, you can frequently find kits that include at least two flash heads, sometimes three, light stands, umbrellas, a carrying case, and other accessories. Anyone with an interest in studio photography can benefit from these semi-pro lighting kits. If you decide to use this type of lighting, invest in a good light meter that takes flash readings. Otherwise, you will suffer trial-and-error exposure ratings that will be very frustrating. Another option is to use the automatic mode on your camera and depend on the camera’s light meter.
Quartz
Quartz-halogen lights are an alternative to flash heads for studio photography. Problems occur with flash photography. One of the most common is finding out after you look at pictures taken that the flash units created unwanted shadows. This doesn't happen with quartz-halogen lights. These lights are on while you are composing a picture, so you see the exact effect the lighting has on your subject. This is a big advantage for a lot of photographers. An added bonus to this type of lighting is that it's less expensive than flash units. A good quartz-halogen starter get will cost you about $250. It will include the lights, barndoors (which allow you to angle the lighting), light stands, and a carrying case.
(CAUTION) Quartz-halogen and other photo lamps get extremely hot during use. They can easily inflict serious burns and are capable of starting fires if they come into contact with flammable materials.
I started my studio lighting with quartz-halogen lights and continue to use the same lights today. My flash heads see a lot of use, but so do my steady lights. Both types of lighting have their advantages and disadvantages. One drawback to quartz lights is that they get very hot. This can make a model's make-up run, present a fire hazard if flammable materials come into contract with them, and there is some risk of serious burns if someone touches the lights.
Another problem with quartz lighting is that it can't stop motion like a flash unit can. Since quartz lighting produces tungsten lighting, you will have to put a corrective filter on your lens to maintain accurate colors in color photographing. But, this is no big deal. Of course, you can made lighting corrections in your photo editing program in your computer.
Quartz lights allow you to take normal light readings. This can be done with an independent light meter or the one that is in your camera. A flash meter is not required. Since quartz lights are on at all times, you can see shadows and lighting effects before you fire the shutter. This is a big help. If you want big-time lighting on a limited budget, quartz-halogen lights are the way to go.
Ring Lights
Ring lights are a specialty flash. They are used with macro lenses when taking close-up pictures. These units often consist of a sensor that mounts in the hot shoe of a camera, a battery pack, and the flash attachment. The flash mounts on the ring of a lens, in a way similar to a filter. Since the flash elements surround the lens, it gives good, even illumination of your subject. Some models, like the one I have, allow you to disable one-half of the ring for creative photography. Other models fire all at one time. For documentary photography of close-ups, ring lights can't be beaten.
A ring light would not normally be used for anything other than documentary work. Taking a picture of a human model with a ring light used for flash would result in a bright, well-lit photograph that would probably be boring. Ring lights bring out extensive detail in subjects. This is usually not desirable when photographing people or pets. If you don't chase after grasshoppers, mushrooms, and wildflowers, you shouldn't need a ring light. But, if you love to bring nature home on your memory card with you in a film canister, a ring light might be right for you.
Flash In a Box
Some photographers like to take their flash shows on the road. If you are one of these road warriors, look into portable studio flashes that can travel with you. Any studio lighting can be used where electricity is available, but if your take your photos off the beaten track, you may want some battery-powered flashes to go along with you. There are two ways to do this. One is much more expensive than the other.
If you want to take full-power studio strobes out into a meadow to photograph a model, be prepared to spend between $1,000 and $1,500 for the privilege. You might find a portable, battery-powered location kit for less than $1,000, but they are not numerous. It might be cheaper to take your regular studio lights and rent a small electric generator for your location session. For that matter, it might even be cheaper to buy a small generator to run your AC lights. It's very difficult to justify or afford location strobes. But, don't get discouraged; I'm going to show you how to beat the system.
Most photography doesn't require super-powerful studio strobes. If you want to take models on location and get some great shots, you can do it with inexpensive, portable, battery-powered flash units. I'm talking about the same electronic flashes that you might normally mount on your camera. These flashes when put together with either sync cords or slaves and some light stands make a good substitute for expensive location kits. You can still use umbrellas and reflection cards, and you will save a tremendous amount of money. Granted, you won't have the full power and control you would with a location set, but you probably won't need it.
To give you an idea of the results you can receive with inexpensive, pocket-size flash equipment, let me share a story from my past with you. When I started doing wedding photography, I couldn't afford the best equipment, but I needed my work to look good. My second wedding assignment was a tough one.
I was going to have to light a large dance room with electronic flash to meet the demands of my customer. This would have been a good time to own a location set of strobes, but I didn't. To compensate for my problem, I took several modest flashes, some inflatable umbrellas, and some light stands to the reception area. My assistant and I positioned the lights prior to the crowded arrival of guests. Each electronic flash was equipped with a peanut slave. When I fired my powerful, bracket-mounted camera flash, all of the slaves would trigger the other flashes. This simple, inexpensive set-up allowed me full light coverage of a large room and crowd with minimal cost.
I have never owned a location set of strobes. During all of my years in the field, I've always used simple, battery-powered flashes with good results. You can spend a lot of money on flashy pro gear if you want to, but it's rarely needed.
Other Flash Factors
There are a number of accessories available for photographers who use flash equipment. Whether you're using a $60 pocket flash or a $1,000 pro setup, you can always enhance your flash photography with accessories. Buying stuff is half of what makes photography so much fun! The accessories available are not mandatory equipment, but many of them can improve your photography and produce nice special effects. You will need a camera with either a hot shoe or a pc sync connection port.
Many photographers advance to a point where they want remote and or multiple flash sources. If you reach this level, you will likely use a sync cord for your remote flash. Slave devices can be used to trigger multiple flashes. There is one problem often encountered with sync cords. They don't always maintain good connections with the camera body.
You can reduce flash failures by using a sync key, a small device that resizes the connection pieces, to keep your connections tight. This is a very inexpensive accessory that should be kept in your camera bag or vest at all times when doing flash photography.
Slaves come in a variety of shapes and sizes. Peanut slaves are inexpensive and work well under most conditions. This is the type of slave that I use, and I can recommend them highly. Most slave devices are made like a hot shoe. The ones that are not can be coupled with a remote flash by using a sync cord. The cord runs only from the slave to the flash, not from your camera body to the remote devices. Once you get to the point of doing creative things with artificial lighting, you will want multiple flashes and remote firing devices.
Studio strobes of good quality usually have slaves built into them. When you fire one light, they all go off. Before you invest in any studio strobes, make sure that they have adjustable power settings and built-in slaves. When this is the case, you only have to connect one light to your camera body with a sync cord, which is also known as a PC cord.
Filters
Filters are available for most photographic lights and flashes. Using filters with your lighting can produce some outstanding results. Even inexpensive pocket flashes are often sold with an assortment of colored filters. Some models use gel-type filters and others use plastic filters. It is a good idea to make sure that any lighting units you buy will accept filters for future interests in special effects.
Snoots
Snoots and barndoors sound like things you would find down on the farm, but they are accessories for photography lighting. Any reputable studio light will accept these types of accessories.
Barndoors consist of two or four metal flaps that allow you to angle light creatively. Snoots are used to concentrate a beam of light. They are often used to highlight a model's hair. There are many other types of add-ons available for studio lighting, so make sure the products you are considering will accept them.
Umbrellas
Most people have seen umbrellas used in flash-photography sessions. They are used to bounce light in a soft, shadowless, attractive manner. Most photographers use white umbrellas, but silver umbrellas produce more bounce. You should experiment with both types until you are comfortable with which one to use on various assignments. As good as umbrellas are, the can be cumbersome at times, and they don't allow a lot of mobility. There is a solution to this dilemma.
Inflatable umbrellas are the answer to higher mobility and better results when using small flash units. These little blow-up umbrellas are only several inches in diameter, but they produce great results. They attach to an electronic flash with elastic bands. Your flash fires into the clear surface of the device and is reflected by the white or silver interior surface. You get bounced lighting from a small, portable, affordable package. I've used them to photograph modeling sessions and weddings with wonderful results. This is one accessory any serious flash photographer should own.
Reflector Cards
Reflector cards are often used in photography. They are implemented with natural light and flash photography. A reflector card can be a small, hand-held size, or it can be a large unit that is supported by a stand. The painted walls and ceilings of buildings act as large reflector cards for photographers bouncing flashes. By bouncing flash or natural light with reflector cards, you receive lighting that is not harsh and distasteful.
Lightweight survival blankets fold to pocket-size proportions and are often silver on one side. These inexpensive items make fantastic reflectors.
Meters
Light meters are critical to good photography. Most modern cameras have some type on built-in meter, but these meters can be fooled under certain conditions. The use of multiple flash units is one of these conditions. If you are going to do much flash photography with any type of flash other than a dedicated, automatic, on-camera flash, invest in a decent flash meter. You will save time, frustration, and wasted film many times over. A lot of flash meters double as reflective meters, so that you are getting two meters for the price of one. This is the type that I would recommend. Flash photography and studio lighting can add a new dimension to your hobby, so give it serious consideration. You should enjoy the journey.

Help with camera filters?
I was going to buy a filter for my Canon Rebel XT off of ebay.
I am not sure which ones I should buy though... my lense is the kit lens, it says EFS 18-55mm. The filters this person is selling are all different numbers... a few examples: Green L Four 4 Point 4PT Star Filter for 62mm 62 LENS , Green L Eight 8 Point 8PT Star Filter for 55mm 55 LENS. I am having trouble with the numbers... do I need a filter that is 18-55mm? Or can I buy one that is just 18 OR 55mm? Thanks for any help you can give me!
Your 18-55mm lens uses 58mm filters. You need a UV filter to protect the front element of your lens. Later, you can buy a circular polarizer. A polarizing filter is used to darken a blue sky and to remove glare/reflections from glass, sand, water, snow and painted metal - but not polished metal.

Quickfilter Digital Filters Providing Intelligent Signal Processing at the Sensor Network Edge
"Intelligent Signal Processing at the Sensor Network Edge" describes trends currently under way in the industry to not only increase the level of networking between sensors, but also to move the signal processing close to the sensor itself. Facilitating these trends and helping our customers overcoming the technical challenges along the way is part of the Quickfilter philosophy.
Sensors are being used everywhere with new applications such as monitoring office rooms for building automation, increasing uptime in an industrial factory and monitoring the border for homeland security. Ideally, these new applications have potential to flood an area with an array of sensors. In order to do this an order of magnitude in cost reduction must be obtained while improving accuracy, robustness and future proofing the sensor network for changes in configuration.
While many technology standards are being introduced to address these challenges such as Wireless Sensor Networks using Zigbee for the RF protocol (based upon IEEE 802.15.4) and Sensor Plug and Play for a standard sensor interface (IEEE 1451.x), the goals of future sensor networks cannot be fully realized without going to a distributed processing network topology. This will require placing intelligent signal processing near or at the sensor before sending data across the communications link. Quickfilter has written a white paper and uses industrial machine monitoring as an application example to illustrate why intelligent signal processing is needed at the edge and proposes a solution to the problem. You can view this white paper at http://www.quickfiltertech.com.
Quickfilter's approach to implementing filter design offers significant improvements over conventional techniques. Compared to analog filtering Quickfilter offers higher performance filtering such as tighter passbands, improved rejection and immunity to temperature variations. Compared to DSPs Quickfilter offers programmable filters as good or better, but without the need to write code, and freeing up the microcontroller to perform other system tasks. In all cases the development tools allow the design to be completed, verified and optimized in a matter of minutes - compared to days or weeks for conventional designs.
About Quickfilter Technologies:

Broken Imac Logic Board, Bad Macintosh, Macbook Logic Board?
If you have been recently handed an insane repair bill for a new apple logic board, there is other options out there worth exploring! In the past quotes in excess of $1000 dollars have been handed to apple computer lovers for a logic board replacement. This just happens to make it worth spending the extra few hundred to just buy a whole new macintosh computer!
Well, if you are unwilling to part with your current broken computer, there is no blame here.The economy is a repair economy not a replacement economy like we just recently had. If you search around there are a few select shops that can actually provide a clean, fast and cost effective repair of the broken apple computer you need repaired.
Apple logic boards were placed in laptops and desktops. When searching for a logic board repair or refurbished apple logic board repairs, make sure the company can provide repair of apple laptops and apple computers in general. Some shops will only repair desk tops because they feel it is to much effort to repair the apple laptop models like: ibook, macbook, macbook pro, powerbook, and so on.
There are many reasons why an apple logic board will fail. You can overheat your logic board and cause the equipment to break. Spills are common issues and your chosen shop should be able to handle anything up to redoing the power jack or running new traces on your apple logic boards.
The repair should cost no more than $250 and vary by the apple computer actually being repaired or worked on. The actual repair should be tested for a minimum of 48-72 hours before passing the quality control check. Most likely you will have to mail out your logic board level repair since the shops are VERY specialized and required hundreds of thousands in equipment to perform the apple computer repair properly.
There you have it a great reason not to throw away that expensive macintosh computer when the apple store tells you it is cheaper to replace that apple computer than to repair it!

How much would it cost to fix the circuit board on a 60 in Mitsubishi tv?
the repairman was just over to give me an estimate and I think that he was just trying to get more money than was needed. He said that the "picture fluid dropped on the signal board." the tv was made in 2000 he said at first that it would cost $520 and I looked at him and started to tell him thank u and then he quickly said $480 so now I want as many estimates as possible!
Some of the Mitsubishis do have coolant leaks, hes dead on the money.
Its worth fixing, because you cant buy a TV in that size for that Much.
