  1. I don't think I've seen any of the original Domo-kun spots. Only clips from them edited into other videos (like the "Developers" one).
  2. Which one did you buy, Clem?
  3. When I shot with the 35L (on APS-C) I loved it.
  4. This is possibly the most fucked up thing I have ever posted in this thread.
  5. #3 is obviously the most important. Being a perennial bachelor, WAF is an abstract concept to me. If the Tokina works for you, then go for it. A US version of the Nikon 10-24mm is $810 @ Adorama: 2181 Nikon 10mm - 24mm f/3.5/4.5G ED-IF AF-S DX Autofocus Zoom Lens for Digital SLR Cameras, Nikon U.S.A. Warranty That's not chump change, but it's down almost $100 from when it was introduced. Given that nearly every other Nikon lens has gone up in price, I find that noteworthy. The differences between F/3.5 and F/4.5 is 2/3rd of a stop. I prefer fixed aperture zooms, but I have learned that with wide zooms variable aperture is much less of an issue. In my experience, aperture size is not hugely important at the wide end, particularly in superwide territory. If you want me to elaborate on that, I will in the photography thread.
  6. What's the Tokina 11-16mm go for? A quick Google search says about $600. For $200 more, one can get the mighty Nikon 10-24mm. At the wide end, every mm counts WRT field of view. If I owned a Nikon APS-C "DX" camera, I'd be all over that. I have shot with the Canon EF-S 10-22mm, and I was really impressed with the results (sadly, I have no example shots online.) Of course, the real answer is to get a full frame sensor and then the 17-40L (Canon) or um, one of these (Nikon).
  7. Two 32oz bottles of Tapatio hot sauce. I also recently decided I'm in the market for a really cheap TV. All it needs to be able to do is play movies in a side room. 480i is fine, but in the age of 60" LED-backlit 1080p 240hz LCD TVs with built in recipes for turduckens, it's tough to find a "basic" television.
