I remember there was a baptismal cup for me when I was baptized and it was golden and it had my name and birth date engraved. One day the cup disappeared and was exchanged with a silver cup, 925 Sterling stamp on it and with gold platination. see picture.


No engravement of my name and birthday on it.


Where is my original cup?

Today Nikon.dk has 15% offer on refurbished products. Some offers only for today.
I took the chance and purchased a Z7II at about 1720 Euros.
My first full frame ever (upgrade from Z50).

My previous experience with Nikon refurbished products is that you actually get a new product.
At least I have not been able to notice any differences compared to a new product.

Fun fact: she rented a house for 3 months near where I lived, requested enhancements worth more than the potential purchase price and ran away 2 weeks later because she tought the house was haunted.

Thank you all for the kind words. I never thought I would one day have a photo exhibition.

Paco, 2002, that was for Celine Dion, if I remember well.

 Yes, that's the one  ;)

High winds tore a metal cover and this zone of the school was of limits. Still high winds today.

Received today the printed booklet of the exhibition of this project in my home town: https://nikongear.net/revival/index.php?topic=11136.0
Opening on Thursday February 5th 18:30. If, against all odds, you happen to be near Genappe, please pop up.

  I can´t believe I haven´t seen this thread until now... Congratulations on the work and wish you the best for the exhibition.

  Migrations have become both a great problem =human above all- that everyone seems to try to take advantage of instead of offering solutions. Drama keeps us voting either pro or against. I'm not going to enter deeper as I don't think this is the place to do so. I'll love to come see the printed work life and talk about it.
   I lived for six months in La Louviere in 2002   :)

 Thanks for sharing it

This is not at all correct; CFexpress type B card temperature behavior varies greatly between cards and it has significant ramifications on the cameras' usability. [...] It turns out the card type greatly affects how long the camera can record high-quality video before heating becomes a problem.

If the card gets hotter than ambient temperature, the only place that extra extra heat can come from is power leaving the battery and being dissipated as heat. One card cannot get hotter than another unless it consumes more power.

The hottest card on the site you linked to was just over twice as hot as the coolest, and as I pointed out, manufacturers' data shows that for the same brand changing the task and the card size can double the power consumption, and double the power consumption means double the final temperature. A lot of the reported differences in final temperature are much smaller - eg, 40 degrees above ambient vs 30 - and that corresponds to a smaller difference in power consumption than you would expect from changing card size.

That means that testing how hot cards get requires being very careful, and a lot of people are not nearly careful enough (eg, not using the same size cards). However, allowing that some cards get hotter than others, the question is whether the reason some cards get hotter is, as everyone seems to assume, differences between the cards, or differences between how the cameras handle the cards. Eg, it has been suggested that some cameras allow and others don't allow cards to go to standby or sleep immediately after a burst, which may matter because power consumption is very low in standby and sleep and the card has a chance to cool down.
