It's amazing the quality that you can get "straight out of camera", Peter! No need for PP in PS if you can get the organic image natural quality (OINQ) by using your camera right. Super small jpeg beats raw every time for the organic look.



The colours are pretty good, eh Jess ?

Now, walk away from the monitor slowly and observe how digitalness drops with distance while organicity improves. Which just goes to show that those image qualities are largely dependent on the reference point, or the observer coordinates, if you will, and do not hinge on gears used.
Here you go, yet another illustration of the Heisenberg's principle of photographic uncertainty.

Yeah, but it is digital organicity. Or something.

The Rebel series are truly organic as they are made of plastics derived from petrochemicals

The Magnesium alloy bodied cameras are largely inorganic metals

Your humor is awesome, in a natural way with wicked undertones.
But I digress...

I love "organicity" as the latest and greatest wordism. I'll use it often, so often that it will probably annoy even me.
On second thought it sounds like a bad porn title or maybe a church band name.

Don't forget "bitchen" which predates those.


bitchin'

learn how to spell!


I hear "awesome" and 10 nano seconds later I've judged the person as a moron, and when I hear "impacted" when they mean "affected" I think "illiterate slob". I can't help myself.

Harsh? Maybe. but 99.999% of the time it's an accurate predictor...


I have a feeling that it won't be all that much longer before "impacted" accepted in the way that you hate. It's already just about there. It's a natural outgrowth of the secondary meaning dating to the early-ish 1900's and sped along in part by newsies having limited room within which to fit headlines.

If you use "awesome" as your moron detector I'm afraid you will end up labeling 99.99999999999999999999999999999% of the people you meet who are under 45 as morons. Not to mention, half of the words we use today, the way use today, officially, didn't always used....

To my knowledge nobody is bashing the 5D2 - they're simply saying the output of the 5D is more pleasing to them.


or perhaps they are even saying the 5D has a more pleasing output until I save up enough and get a 5D2 then that one will be the organic one
(and sorry to say but being able to play pac-man on a web-browser title simply does no less than inspire awe)

It's not organic unless it's certified organic.

The word "sustainable" is worse - it annoys me more than organic.

James, that's interesting.....speaking English in a merciful manner is not one of the transgressions for which you kick yourself. In other words, are you being self-indulgent there ?


Yup. Ain't it grand? Or should I say, it's "awesome" how I indulge myself. Unbounded pleasure, as it were.

Ahh, the life of a poster. Quick on the keyboard, meaning and intent firmly known, but with little time spent reflecting on what we've said/written, we often convey something unintended. The game is afoot.

PS - I should have amended that to say "mercifully, trying to speak English is not...". Now that would have been a more awesome way of efforting my reply so it impacted more.

I am joking, of course. Those of us who might have endeavoured to write and speak English kinda properly, we should understand the difficulty therein which goes well beyond mere recognition of irregular plurals and some such junior high school stuff.

I almost missed your reply. I was attending to my gears this morning.

N.B. previous reply amended.

In this interview with the director of House regarding his use of the 5D to film the finale, he refers to his lighting as organic twice. http://philipbloom.net/other-stuff/case-studies/greg-yaitanes-house-interview-transcription/

The MBA program I attended offered a minor in sustainability. As sustainability is quantifiable, it's far more legitimate a word than organic.

Schlotz, I can't speak for the rest, but I spent 2 hrs this morning shooting organic art on the lake.

I can live with/ignore "organic".

I shudder however when I hear "at this point in time". Talk about redundancy...

The same crowd who insist on "shedule" - better known as "sKedule", but always written as SCHedule must've invented that one.

Example:

"I'll check my shedule, but if you wish to book me at this point in time to photograph your wedding in my organic style, then... hello? Hello? Are you still there??"

Wouldn't that be all your British cousins from the left side of the pond?
