(I know there's a photography topic, but it seems to be more about sharing pictures rather than buying gear?).

    I'm not a photography expert by far (!!), it's merely a hobby where I don't know what I'm doing exactly and having fun anyways I own a panasonic lumix dmc-lf1 (much needed upgrade from my kodak digicam from '06) and a canon powershot sx520 hs, which I'm too dumb to use....yet.
    Don't shake the instant photos. It's a myth. It doesn't make them develop any quicker and can actually damage the image because the chemicals are spread evenly on the photo when it's printed (correct me if i'm wrong).

    Although you can do it if you really want to, whilst listening to OutKast's Hey Ya...

    +1, do not shake them, let them rest for a minute or so until the ink dries up
  3. duly noted
  4. Still own the Huawei and still own the Chromebook flip.

    Only complaint about the Huawei is that it's ridiculously slippy and I hate cases.

    Nice you still have it and like it. They are tougher than Samsungs, iPhones and similar, so you'll be fine I hope.
  6. I have no idea what any of this is. I'm an Atari generation kid. I do know I just bumped the Boss though...
  7. Another Apple event tonight. Let's see what they come up with. Not very eager to buy the latest iPhone looking at the rumours.
  8. New U2 album?

  9. I'm more excited about the PlayStation announcement 2 hours later.

    Unless U2 appear at the Apple event.
  10. What about U2 appearing at the PlayStation event?
