Very cool!

I want 10k words on my desk by Monday.

Props to CNN’s chyron writer:

If you’re wondering why Brötchen blew up seemingly out of nowhere, guess what: he’s a nepo baby. His mom is literally a pygmy hippo *at the same fucking zoo*

Three cameras in our Used Dept that are SDSG*. *SoDangSexyGeesh #Leica #Nikon #NikonFM3A #LeicaR7

incidentally that's how my gf describes me, heyooooooo

Life in the bike lane OM-1, 14-45mm f/4 Pro

Saw this guy's work at the recent #BayViewGalleryNight, and DANG, that's some interesting work. He glues allllllll this crap to a piece of wood, and then paints it all! He works out of the Lincoln Warehouse, a warren of small bizs and artist studios!

"but the thing is there's no such thing"

mattfilipiakfoto on IG is an alllllllright dude. #photography #Milwaukee

golDANG, blue jays are handsome birds.

As a three-decade veteran teacher with a master’s and National Board certification, I’m now actually earning just over $100k per year. It would take me 10 years to earn a million. 10 thousand years to earn a billion. 10 *MILLION* years to earn a trillion.

It's surreal that the man has spent the week fueling a pogrom, calling for the jailing of the UK government, spouting great replacement theory racism and then selling a stock whose value is 95% vaporware and we are supposed to pretend that this is all normal.

Only a bollard is brave enough to stop a burning runway car. WE WILL NEVER LET YOU DOWN. #WorldBollardAssociation 🇮🇳

yes yes and YES.

望京 OM System OM-1 Mark II Olympus M Zuiko Digital 40–150mm F2.8

geesh, what's it like working with that monster-tele?

Him: "Y'all wanna see a cool car?" *garage door opens* Me: "SWEET ZOMBIE JESUS!" #carsky #oldcarBS Canon EOS R RF 24-105mm f/4L IS

bahhhhhhh...

Nikon FM3A, the best non-AF 35mm camera ever built. Form factor not much larger than a Leica MP, electric when you want it to be but fully mechanical when you need it to be, and there is an f-mount lens for everything and everybody--plus you can get an extra 2 frames off a 36 exp roll with it.

wow, what a decisive moment!

This is probably the most traditional possible behavior for the family of a pope.

Summertime is the time to EXPERIMENT with new-to-you, inexpensive Used gear - like putting a vintage screw mount lens on your mirrorless camera!!

Carry your camera AND be stylish with these new #PhotoScarves! #camerastrap #photography #Milwaukee

GET OUTSIDE and make some #LandscapePhotography... AND DO IT WITH A #NIKONZ ULTRAWIDE!

Live Neutral Density is one of the coolest features around, and many @omsystem.bsky.social cameras have it. Playing with slow shutter speeds can make unique images, but in bright sunlight, even with low ISO and high apertures, it can be hard to get slow shutters...but Live ND makes it EASY!

hey FILM PHOTOGRAPHERS, what caught your eye here? @ilfordphoto.com #SFX200 #IlfordFP4 #IlfordHP5 #IlfordXP2

I know mirrorless is the way things are going...but @pentax.bsky.social is still out here making darn nice DSLRs. So, if you're looking for a #DSLR, CONSIDER #PENTAX.

10MP, 12X optical zoom - who wants a #LEICA Travel-Cam from 2006?? @papashittycams.bsky.social

Whether you're a full-frame #Nikon #NikonZ user, or a crop-sensor user, we've got the ultra-wide angle lens for YOU! #NikonZf #NikonZ8 #NikonZ9 #NikonZ50ii

This Used #CanonR8 is still available, and so are these #OlympusOM film-era lenses - commmmmme and get 'em!

There's a pretty fair variety of #Nikon DSLR lenses in our Used Dept. right now...what lens looks best for you?

The #NikonZ8 is a professional grade #mirrorless body, and costs $4299.95, and that ain't fooling around! #Nikon has generously put a $900 instant rebate on this camera, making it even more attractive! The 85/1.8 S is $849.95, and has a $100 I.R. The 28-75/2.8 is $1199.95, and has a $200 I.R.

Did you hear about the PRICE REDUCTION on the #FujifilmXHalf? Did you hear about the INSTANT REBATE on the #FujifilmXHalf?? Price is $649.95, minus a $100 I.R.! The #FujifilmXHalf is a pretty fun small camera and this recent price reduction, combined with the $100 rebate, make it REEEAL attractive!

NEW IN USED!! A new 14-42mm #OMSystem lens (we bought it back from a customer who bought an #OMSystemEM10IV and didn't want the kit lens)...and a #CanonSX720HS with a SUPER-zoom!

Who else is using a #Pentax17? This lil camera is so keen! And this month, you get $50 worth of film, at the time of purchase, when you buy the camera! #FilmPhotography #halfframe #Milwaukee #photography

NEW IN USED: #CanonFD #CanonF1 and 50/1.4, #Nikon #NikonD7500, Nikon 18-55 AF-P, and two old skool Nikon prime-lenses!

Elect me President, I can sleep through so much shit

well known nazi and his friends shout slurs at a woman, shove her to the ground, injure her spine, and they advance on her so she draws her gun and they run off. all caught on surveillance video. cops charge woman with crime.

Small reminder that the @omsystem.bsky.social #OMSystemOM3 is one of the best looking cameras around. :) #microfourthirds #mirrorless #Milwaukee

It's never not bonkers that human life expectancy was ~34 in 1870 and then* someone was like "maybe water should be clean" and someone else was like "let's…wash our hands?" and someone else was like "vaccines tho!" and someone else was like "uh, mold kills bacteria?" and now we mostly live past 70.

Still got this #Nikon #NikonZ 35/1.2 S lens in stock...who wants #FastGlass, I mean REALLY FAST EXCEPTIONAL HIGH-PERFORMING GLASS??

hahaha, bless the pedants, a word that begins with the same two letters as "petty". Like, I do love me some detail-oriented specificity, but g'dang, nerds, that doesn't really matter! :)

ROCK THAT SH*T, MR @SS SH*TS!

We still have one #MirrorLens in stock yet - who wants it?!
