It's a 35mm fisheye camera. I was very happy to find a fisheye camera which used film - I didn't think they exsisted. It was only $45 too, which is pretty good for a new camera.

Description on amazon.com:

"...180-degree wide-angle view & stunning fisheye barrel distortion, but the Fisheye No. 2 adds a bulb setting for long exposures, a switch for multiple exposures on the same frame, the ability to fire both a hotshoe flash & the built-in flash, a true fisheye viewfinder, & a "full metal jacket" body treatmentWith this new arsenal, the possibilities for your Fisheye lomography are endless! Uses normal 35mm film that can be developed anywhereFeatures:"B" (Bulb) settingBy holding down the shutter button with your finger, you can keep the shutter open for as long as you like thereby inviting all the gorgeous ambient light outside to come on in..."

there's also a multiple exposure option which is really cool. So it's kind of funny looking, but I still think it will rule!

And a Ibanez RG???? fixed bridge thing. Put some EMG 81's in there, sweeeet. Tuned it to Open C - Ala Dev pretty cool tuning.

Psh..the pickups in my RG are fucking great, and they are stock!


Tone deaf :D

I dont have a "cheap" RG...and no I'm not tone deaf, go listen to my music.

Plus EMG's are totally personal preference. The only EMG's I like are the passive ones and the 7 string versions(both passive and 707)


That reply was cheap, on sale cheap actually.

"The only EMG's I like are the passive ones and the 7 string versions(both passive and 707)" thats your preference :wink:

Someone has yet to learn that EMG's are not the best pickups around.

Calling my response cheap is cheap in and of itself, showing you have no capacity to form a valid argument.

When you can come back with a reason why EMG's are "the best" other than "because" then we will talk. Until then, you are wrong my friend.

Plus, DsD is not a "bro"...

Oh no not yet. I just bought it off Amazon yesterday - it should be a week or two before I get it. Yeah I used to be a dark room fiend, but then got side tracked - trying to get back into it, you know? Do you mostly use digital or do you still use analog cameras as well... or both?!

I'm thinking sepia-toned photos of a gothic-esque cathedrals from a low point of perspective is where it's at. Lasse Hoile-style :lol: (I wish)

I didnt say EMG's are the best.

Look at my first post, my 7 has Dimarzios in it as as does my other 6 string RG. They have been in it for about 12 years actually.

And it was cheap, If your only here for an argument them piss off. I'm not interested buddy!

It seems like you are the one who is here for the argument. Immediately calling me "tone deaf" for liking the tone my RG's pickups have. It's all personal preference as I've stated before. As well as the gear you use. Muddy tone isnt always a bad thing, look at High on Fire.

My apologies for calling you bro...Madam :)

Yeah I only use digital these days. I'm using a 400D ATM. Looking at a 5D in the very near future. Full frame :D

Sepia, nice, I can picture what you're thinking. Let us know how it goes then

Them not fight'n words buddy. It was a bit of friendly shit stirring is all...

If you would like to talk about gear then we will be best mates. Lets not get into the fanboy BS OK.

No fanboyism here. Just hate when people start tossing around how EMG's are so great and "sound so good"...It's really all personal and personally I dont like EMG's all that much. Almost every Duncan and Dimarzio I've ever used sounds better than most EMG's I've used. None of my guitars have EMG's and most still have stock pickups. The gear you use has a major impact on you tone as well dont forget. I mean if you listen to the Baritone test I did with the stock pickups in a shitty baritone strat, I think you would be surprised at the tone I got out of them.

Well lets get one thing straight, I didnt do any tossing...well...

Agreed with what you said. EMG's are new to me. Ive had some experience with them over the years; mates guitars. Ive played (not exclusively) metal for years and I just like the way they compress and scoop the mids a bit. Nice and tight. Ive always used Dimarzio, but these EMG's I got for a steal. I gave them a go and ended up really liking what they can do. All my guitars are downtuned and Ive found that the actives really help maintain the bottom end clarity.

Cheers

Understandable.

All of my guitars are in different tunings. Though I love the sound of a really nice upgraded pickup, I always try out my guitars before I buy them so I can get a feel for whether I need to switch a pup out or not. Typically I go for guitars that I wont need to do any switching with.
