You can't actually prove that, only conjecture that it probably is with
theory and by extrapolating observation - which could all be wrong.
Just because it seems to be true from our perspective and place and
time, doesn't mean that's the way it is.

How do you prove a nagative?


Aren’t you supposed to be getting your eye-ball polished today?


Thanks for asking. It was done. I have vision in my right eye, thoug as
expected, it is blurry. Doc says I don't need the dark glasses indoors,
but need to wear that plastic shield.


Is that blurry due to the shield?
For me all was bright, sharp, and clear when I unveiled the following
morning.
Regardless, I recommend a good pair of sunglasses for those outdoor
excursions.

I just hope that the experience was less traumatic for you than you
anticipated.

The blur is caused because I did not have a vision correction lens
placed in my eye, and or course by the plastic shiled. It is as I
anticipated. I have an appointment tomorrow with the doc, so he can make
sure

Of course you have a vision correction replacement lens, it is just that what
you probably got was a simple spherical lens. It should be optimized for
distance vision, and you will probably still need readers.
I got toric replacement lenses which correct for astigmatism. They also cost
me an extra $4800, but so far I am more than satisfied. I haven’t seen this
good in over 40 years.

Is there some reason your version of Thunderbird fails to cope with a
conventional SIG delimiter?

You can produce a decent shot of almost anything with
lesser cameras today. So who really needs "the best?"

Sandman:
Professional and prosumer photographers. You're
welcome.

RichA:
"Prosumers need the best...HA HA HA HA!" WANT, yes; NEED? NO!

Sandman:
Laugh it up, fuzzball. Doesn't change the answer.


Professional and prosumer photographers need DSLR.


Prosumer = Professional consumer???


I could be that. Anyone hiring?

You're welcome.


That article from that besserwisser anonymous site merely validates my
opinion...

It's a vomitrociuous term (not bodacious). Anecdata suggests it was
invented by banksters or other followers of Reaganomics, imagineered to
exploit affluenza. It's been a ginormous success - exceeding
guesstimates.

Due to the hideosity of the word, and irregardless of the confusion it
may cause the digerati, I prefer the portmanteau "Confessional" camera.

Agreed, it is a repellant word. Not for the left-wing ideas put forth,
but because it appears to confer greater talent or knowledge on the part
of the buyer of a "prosumer" camera than a non-prosumer camera. I've
known people who owned five-figure gear who didn't know what the F---
they were doing with a camera. Meanwhile, Dpreview has people who are
accomplished but not professional photographers just moving from things
like the Nikon D5100 only now.


No, not an attractive sounding word, and, as with many words, can be
misused. However, it conveys a clear meaning to me, and therefor I will
allow it to exist in our language.


I allow it to exist in my langauge.


That I forbid thy!
