No. You clearly have more rights with guns; cameras aren’t enumerated in the constitution.
Try pointing a camera at a cop; try pointing a gun at a cop. Judge, by inspection of the response, if they are treated the same.
I don't hate you; I just don't care

Some drunk guy hit a passel of automobiles; I took pictures. KOMO asked for clearance on a couple; I’m also in contact with a number of the victims. Right place, right time for me; wrong place, wrong time for everyone else.
from 1990. We’re making the same errors, now, of course; perhaps in different areas.
I picked up a couple ASAPs and an MS2 last week; installing the ASAP was much easier once I realized I have a mil-spec extension on my SEBR, not the commercial extension. Quite hard to fit the larger commercial block into the smaller mil-spec slot.
While goofing off with the MS2 (read: trying to adjust it to allow the rifle to move without smacking me in the nuts), I thought about the other type of shooting I like to do; a few moments of dickery et voilà: DSLR on a single-point sling. It distributes the mass over your whole body quite nicely, without a fecking neckstrap to get caught up in the works. Detaching the sling is quite easy; I suppose were I to carry it full-time in this manner I’d make it a little more difficult.
Even with the largest lens and flash I have, the mass is spread out enough that it isn’t as big a deal as with the neckstrap.
Full disclosure: MagPul sent me an AFG gratis once for evaluation.
Apparently, a hawk can dive fast enough to break into your house. And live. Any bets it was hunting the cat?
I sent off ~150 negatives to ScanCafe Monday; I bought the 35mm negative + pro library option. This should result in 3000 dpi TIFF files + “processed” jpgs for $0.48 per frame; with shipping, the total order was around $80.
At 3000 dpi, 35mm images (36mm*24mm) should end up around 11.5 megapixels.
Sadly, they don’t scan black & white negatives. At least 20 of the negatives I sent are of this type; fortunately, you don’t pay for what they don’t scan. I should have read the fine print more clearly.
I’ll report back when I get results. If I’m happy, I’ll send the rest of my color negatives off. It will be nice to get all of these pictures in a usable form.
well, here you go. You see that? 261 megapixels. 1-25 FPS. You read that right – 261 megapixels. If anyone is looking to kick in, just paypal me. I’d appreciate it.
I have a bunch of videos that I encoded using a great (at the time) codec: the Intel “Indeo” codec. Sadly, I no longer have the source to these compressed videos and the installer and vodec I have for Indeo no longer works; I even tried installing the codec on XP, no dice. Wikipedia led me to Ligos, the current owner of the Indeo vodec. $15 later, I have a version of Indeo 5.2 that works on Vista! I transcoded a bunch of videos from Indeo 5.2 using Windows Movie Maker; these were published on Soapbox and Flickr. I appreciate that the quality of the videos is degraded due to transcoding; I hope you appreciate that staving off bit-rot is a painful task.
