Well that was clever...

Sat Aug 9, 2008, 4:09 AM
Go me... today I managed to drop my camera :| Flat on its face as well :( Thankfully the lens itself still works, as does the camera, but the filter took a bit of a bruising and is now stuck. So my options are: take orange photos forever; force it out and strip the filter threads and then not be able to use filters ever; break out the Dremel and have some fun cutting it up, or; pay for someone to sort it D: I will probably do the latter.

I have rubbish luck :(

Oh and so apparently you can't even post images in your journal unless you're subscribed. CSS I can understand, but photos? The fuck? :|


Oh, I got the lens fixed. Only scars are two chips where it hit a rock, then bounced and hit it again :crying: [link]

Practice safe photography always wear a strap =P

Ah well man, ruddy luck. Obviously if your going to have fun with the dremel, (lets face it, who doesnt?) careful, because if the glass shatters you may end up accidently hitting the actual lens.

And if you do want to consider shooting with an orange filter but don't want the filter just custom whitebalance in the mean time =D

Yup, thankfully all is well with it now. When I asked the guy at the local camera shop if there was any damage to the lens' threads, he goes "'course not, it's a Zeiss!" :B
