Nice, what camera?

Canon Rebel t2i/550D, It's not about the camera though, you could be able to get the same results with a cheapo point and shoot or a decent cell phone.

Techtu · Dec 28, 2012

Well not quite the same result but I do agree.

similar shot with my cell.

What did you get?
Nice pic :toast:

TotalChaos · Dec 30, 2012

Well it's an Olympus 815UZ. It's not real special by any means but it takes better pics in low light then my P80 and I got a great price at BestBuy of all places. It was only $149 so I figure it's worth a gamble.

Very nice close ups indeed.

Athlon2K15 · Dec 30, 2012

Do you use manual focus or do you set it to auto and let the camera do the work?

TotalChaos · Dec 30, 2012

dj-electric · Dec 30, 2012

Try using multi-shot, long expusure and low ISO and see if you can get better less grainy macro shots. for example, my quick try on the MVF to demonstrate

TotalChaos · Dec 30, 2012

The options available are pretty limited which is why the price was as low as it was. My Nikon P80 has far more options available.

mmmb.mp · Dec 30, 2012

Close ups make for good viewing ideas.

TriggerWolf · Dec 30, 2012

Heres some hardware pr0n

These are from my build log.

Cheers

Nice! I had a Turtle Beach Montego DDL card based on the same CMedia chipset. It was a popular softmod to just use the Xplosion DTS drivers since they were pretty much all around "better".

I guess I should post some hardware closeups if I'm going to make a post.

That would be a nice card to crunch with.

Well if you can point both the advantages and disadvantages of crunching, ofcourse the pro's will be outweighing the cons I presume, then maybe it's something I may do, I see enough of it around on TPU so I figure why not?

The upsides are contributing to a worthy cause, pride in yourself and your team, sometimes an ego boost and always friendly competition. The downsides are heat and noise (both depending on your cooling but I think that stock cooler should do nicely), and added electricity cost, depending on your situation.

These guys can tell you a lot more than I can:

And here's how to make your GPU do all the work:

(Yes, I know, a non-modular 650w PSU in an ITX case is not a good idea)
