raves and rants

the post that caused dpp to erase a thread

i'm certainly not a figure here in dpp. and heck no, im not starting a fight. i just find it inappropriate for you to post these.

i don't mind if you buy all the gear you want, your money anyhow. i would just like to point out the incoherence of your posts here in dpp. you bought a 40d first right? next, then you were asking about the 24-70. then, you were asking about buying the 70-200 online. after that, you say you bought a drybox at henry's (heck you were even having problems with it). Oh yeah, you mentioned no lens muna right after you bought your 40d body. now what?

probably here's where you went dreadfully wrong: you say, and i quote "the following day i went to DZONE trinoma and purchased the ff : 1.] 40D kit 2.] battery grip 3.] 430EX 4.] 10-22, 24-70L,70-200L. 5.] uv filters for each lenses. 5] lowepro sling bag 6.] AMpro drybox all these stuff in not less than 1 hour."

you wanted to win, i don't blame you for that. i also don't blame you for joining the contest, everyone's entitled to that. don't start with the self-pity. but nino didn't say "something impressive and unique." he said interesting but if that's how you perceive the word, then that's fine with me. i still can't get by the fact that you said these things and still you say " my story is real." well maybe a part or two of it is real.

and to you aaron, what do you care where i live? does it have anything to do with these facts? i live in san juan, so what? at least i didn't say "i'll ask lolo estrada to buy bella luce." i posted that in a blog so that those who are interested may view. why? would you wanted me to post it in a thread here in dpp? i don't think so.

furthermore, i still say it's the indian not the pana. btw, passion isn't about your dpp ranking. it isn't about how many, as you say, non-sense posts you have made today. it is not about how you became a sophomore from a freshman in a few weeks time. passion is about the craft. it isn't about the gear. it isn't about the posts. and surely it doesn't have to do where the F you live. (if that's such a big deal with you.

i'm not fighting with anyone. (suck it up if you still think it's chicken dung) i'm stating facts here.. and that's the truth

[quote=aaron ebio;280087]to everyone who thinks am a show off , pardon my inability to see it. the reality is i'm a newbie , i wanted to learn the craft ASAP and so i had to buy the stuff while the Dzone trinoma's 0% promo sale for 12 mos was still ongoing.

my story is real . ask Dan and the QC shooters . my only fault perhaps , was joining this constest. nino wanted something impressive and unique , so i stated one. didnt mean to brag.

to jared , i dont know if you're a figure here in DPP or a mole in ur posh village in "SAN JUAN". but i think posting a rant and a "blog " , and saying you dont want to start a fight is pure chickendung.

@nino , sorry for the OT post. just wanted to share my side.[/quote]

rants of a poser.. damn

... my electric box is working fine. until now. i put a digital hygrometer inside. the analog hygro of the box is reading 50% and the digital ( infomax ) is reading 38%. o c'mon ! any guapings out there who has this problem ? tulong naman oh. ( trans : helps me)

.. mine is an AM-PRO. from henry's. no problem with the unit , just the hygro ( analog ) might need some calibration. i've heard Eureka is a good choice.

... got mine 60k. dzone. with a free nice sturdy and recyclable paperbag with a big face pic and dzone logo. and with their contact numbers written on it. ehe.

- > go for 40D if budget allows. or even 5D body ( 105k ). no lens muna. next year na.- yeah sure

....hahay. pardon a newbie's impression. but from what i've been seeing in the posts. if you have a model who looks this good and whos skin glows this brightly , even a LOmo cam can do justice to her aura. heheh. damn , i've never shot pipol this beautiful. ( translation : i'll attend photo workshops and buy more L's to capture stunning pix like urs.)

.... ah , simplicity is beauty. ahaha. dami ko nonsense post today ah ? ( trans : am just so happy that my drybox is working already. 5-star customer service HEnry's ! )

helo. newbie here. whats with the seniority profiles ? does it depend on posts ? or duration of membership. cuz i joined october this year , then this november ...sophomore na ako ? ..ehehe. just curious. tnx.

--> halu. NEWBIE here. does the 24-70L have IS ? wont i have blur problems if theres no IS ?...trying to replace my 18-55 IS kit ( who wants ?). ....oh , and will it the f2.8 suffice for a bokeh? ...do let me know ASAP !!! ..am buying this afternoon . heheh. tnx

55 kit lens. am planning to get the 50mm 1.8 also ....dzone price is 4700 ...would anyone know how much this is in hidalgo ? tnx. again.- i thought binili mo lahat? same day?

.... got mine from henry's. analog hygro , 3 layer electric box at 7800. the first one i got , SIRA ! ..i replaced it. this new one is working fine. RH reading should be between 45-55%. the Eureka was my first choice .. kaso no stock nga in aperture. try twincell in virramal greenhills, i think they have one.

am willing to join the raffle. and here's my story :

DPP changed my life. –you got a life

i wasn't only bitten , the shutterBUG swallowed my entire wallet as well. i bought my first DPP issue ( #15) last october from the stands. right then and there i registered online. read the forums and saw the pix.

the following day i went to DZONE trinoma and purchased the ff :

1.] 40D kit 2.] battery grip 3.] 430EX 4.] 10-22, 24-70L,70-200L.

5.] uv filters for each lenses. 5] lowepro sling bag 6.] AMpro drybox

all these stuff in not less than 1 hour . - say what? all at the same time?? oh really.. realistic nga naman story mo..

... i'm also enrolling in jo avila's class this december.

---> in roughly 2.5 weeks time , i blasted from being a FRESHMAN to a JUNIOR in this forum.

---> if this is not Passion. then give me a psychiatrist's number. – that’s just plain pathetic

or give me one of those tikets.

... for consolation.

thank you.

i'd like to make this clear na this is nothing personal... im just pissed off na he'd have to show off like that..
