I had Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy on 5-20-10.
Enclosed pleas find a comparison in light shaping of the Firefly 65cm Beauty Box and the Firefly Strip Box FBS 2560
The reason is that I was not satisfied with the light shaping of the Firefly Strip Box. For me it was always close to the Beauty Box and not what I expect from a Strip Box.

size comparison of all my dolls at home. Chorm is definitely the tallest! Comparing Iplehouse's real skin to Soom's bronze, I like bronze way better.
I find this unusual. Any thoughts...
The plates are slightly off because of the way I held her head from the bottom.
I wanted a "real" comparison, that is one that includes the keyboards and chargers, because rarely would one leave home without those. Post about it: jml.is/tech/2015/11/14/travel-computing-weight-comparison...
A comparison between the K-1 with the Pentax 24-70 and the K-5 with the Pentax 18-55.
Both were underexposed by 1 Stop intentionally. The K-1 had no filter attached, the K-5 had a polarizer and an UV-filter attached. The pictures were shot in RAW and I used the defaults of the Camera-Raw Plugin to save them as JPGs - no further edits.

My beloved, well traveled Xootr kick scooter. Regular commutes in Chicago (year round), plus it's plane travelled to Boston, San Francisco, Orlando and Vero Beach Florida, San Diego (2x), Virginia, Indy (5x to Gen Con!)... plus many, many vacations by car.
I've added reflectors, a cup holder, a bell.
The Technic 1x1 with half-pin and the new modified brick 1x1 with one stud on the side are not technically equivalent. They can kind of function the same way in real life, due to the flexibility of the plastic, but there is a .12mm difference in the distance between the top of the brick and stud.
Jamie Berard gave a presentation at Brickfest '06 about stressing elements, and there is a PDF copy of his Powerpoint file here, if you are interested in more information about legal vs. illegal building techniques.

100 mm Lens Comparison, Center
Sample pictures of this group of lenses.
This chart consists of 200x200 px crops of a 7360x4912 px picture by a full frame sensor, taken from the center. The crops of each line were made with one lens, the used f-stop is indicated in the crop. As a reference, the exposure was taken from the Pentax macro lens at f/5.6, so every exposure for each lens was 1/60 s at f/5.6 and 1/125 s at f/4 and so on. Also the white balance was taken from this capture, to compare colors. The photos were taken with ISO 100 in JPG format, highest quality, without any picture "enhancement" like sharpening, saturation, noise reduction or lens correction, the crop was directly taken from the ooc picture.
The focus was set manually with 16x magnification of the live view accurately onto the "COLOR" on the right film cartridge. The electronic shutter was used, the distance sensor to subject was about 3.4 m.
Like in previous comparisons: none of the lenses has real problems to provide a good image, as long the subject is in the center. The Pentax macro is fine already wide open, sharp and contrasty, but is suffers from "purple fringing" in the red area. The border around the "100" is really ugly and it doesn't disappear completely by stopping down. At f22 and f32 the effects of diffraction are clearly visible. At f2.8 the Sigma is less sharp than the Pentax, the contrast from f4 on is very good, but doesn't reach the one of the Pentax. On the other hand, the rendering of the red area is done much better by the Sigma. At f32 the Sigma isn't as bad as the Pentax, but (macro-)photographers should avoid this f-stop anyway.
The Pentax zoom lens is already sharp wide open, but the contrast is low up to f5.6, there is also some glare. The Fujinon turns out well, from f5.6 on it can compete with the macro lenses.
The Pancolar is like expected somewhat soft wide open, quality increases by stopping down, but it doesn't reach a high level. Here the Fujinon is clearly better. At f2 the Jupiter is less contrasty than the Pancolar, otherwise it is similar. However, the longer focal length of the other lenses matters, the writings are about 20% larger and hence better readable.
In the competition of the low-budget lenses the Hanimex is ahead. It is surprisingly good for an 3-element lens. The Steinheil is less contrasty and shows some glare wide open, but is far away from being an optical catastrophy.
I have just upgraded my camera from a Fuji S9600 to the new Fuji S100fs and I ran a few comparative tests.
The shot on the left was taken with both cameras set to focal length 300mm, iso 200, hand held at 1/350sec. and I then cropped out the sign on the telegraph pole to compare detail. The sign was 70 yards from my camera.
Conclusion: I have been very pleased with my S9600 over nearly 2 years, I print 16"x12" and have won competitions against the SLR brigade in my local camera club. However the increase in detail and reduction in noise is clearly visible in the image of the sign extreme right and the S100fs wins hands down. The S100 has 11.1m pixels compared with 9m on the S9600, but I guess the increase in quality stems more from the fact that the sensor is physically doubled in size and the lens is better, rather than just the extra 2m pixels.
Photos (NOT handheld shots) for comparison of the Nikkor 80-400 VR to the 70-200VR with and without the TC-20EII teleconverter. I have uploaded original full size photos for various focal lengths and apertures of each lens, along with two different crops of each photo.
All photos are unedited other than cropping.
The lens, focal length, and aperture data for each photo are given in the filenames.
All photos were taken with a Nikon D200 sitting on a stable piano bench approximately 8 feet from the feather, which was taped to a wall and sticking out horizontally into the air at about the same level as the camera, and roughly perpendicular to the camera's line of sight.
Auto focus was used to focus on the middle of the narrow blue stripe just to the left (in these photos) of the dark eye.
ISO was 100.
VR was off.
Mirror lockup and the default mirror lockup timed shutter release were used to prevent camera shake.
Illumination was from an SB800 flash mounted on the camera in TTL mode.
Spot metering was used.
