Live view, just an FYI
Last night had to cover a story, with standing room only. I used the tripod, take notes, record, photography...yup. One busy beaver. So used live view instead of the viewfinder to frame my subjects. This was one + hour! and two and a half batteries. If you plan to use it extensively, plan to have extra batteries.

Yup, charging as I type.

To be honest. But I had no choice. That room was packed. I placed the recorder on a table and prayed. I got good sound. Floating on this, not possible either.

Outside of political scandals this is rare.

Photos were ok though.

Here, the crowd shot. Should have used remote, oh well (and lift the tripod)


Of all the town meetings I have attended, I have never once seen such excitement for a crowd this size before.   She really doesn't get out much does she?

Nutcase nadin is back on the front lines of professional journalism, and wants to give the DUmpmonkeys a little taste of what it's like to be a pro. An unpaid, unread, internet blog pro:

Yup, not just a journo, not just a photog.

A pro combo journo/photog!

And Crazy Miriam gets all of that for the low, low price of zero.



Now she shares some of the nuts and bolts of photojournalism.

DUmmies are in awe:

And that one shot, taken with The Good Rig, gives you just a hint at what a gifted photog nadin is!

I feel like I'm right there in that crowd of California moonbats. Yup!

So are you saying, Nadin, that you weren't able to use the remote? Nadin, was there a guy there who kind of looked like a walrus?

You think that's bad . . . try understanding what she says on tape, such as her 'test drive' in the new Cherokee at some auto show she was at a couple of months ago.  Think Natasha from the old comics, in a monotone with some sort of mental illness.

Photag she ain't.  Even I can take better pics than gnads and mine are awful.

Can't speak.  Can't write.  Can't photo.  Just how in the world does she think she's going to be a "journo" when she grows up?

She would find taking a pic of a rock to be a challenge.
The squirrels would drive her even further into manic depression.  Not that it's bad, mind you. :lmao:
