1) A full-power blast from a Vivitar 5200 flash pointed at the ceiling, will cause my Magnavox VCR to eject its cassette. (I guess I know it's throwing off IR ... but I was pretty sure of that already.)
2) Always carrying an SLR around provides a handy clue for folks looking for a photographer to do a family portrait. 2a) This'll be the second gig in a row since getting the *istD where I'll be shooting film. Huh. (Client wants a poster-sized print and wallets -- please do correct me if I'm wrong, but my thinking is that for a 20"x30" print, I probably want to be using a fine-grained film instead of the *istD ... right? I know 300 dpi is a good rule of thumb for most prints, but assuming most folks don't stand that close to a print that large, what's a good minimum resolution to aim for in a poster sized portrait?) 2b) As usual, I have no $#%^ing idea what a reasonable rate to charge is. Gonna attempt to Google up a clue. -- Glenn PS: Sorry to be absent from the list so much.
