DRIVING
Two elderly women were out driving in a large car - both could barely see over the dashboard. As they were cruising along, they came to an intersection. The stoplight was red, but they just went on through.
The woman in the passenger seat thought to herself "I must be losing it. I could have sworn we just went through a red light." After a few more minutes, they came to another intersection and the light was red again.
Again, they went right through. The woman in the passenger seat was almost sure that the light had been red but was really concerned that she was losing it. She was getting nervous At the next intersection, sure enough, the light was red and they went on through. So, she turned to the other woman and said, "Mildred, did you know that we just ran through three red lights in a row? You could have killed us both!"
Mildred turned to her and said, "Oh! Am I driving?" |

Mamiya Debuts New Open Platform Digital Camera
Mamiya Debuts New Open Platform Digital Camera

Elmsford, NY - October 23, 2009 - Mamiya, synonymous with professional
medium format photography for 50 years, announces an entirely new
medium format camera body, the Mamiya 645DF. The 645DF delivers
exciting advances in core-camera technology, including an innovative
new selectable dual shutter system with available flash sync speeds of
up to 1/1600 of a second. Designed specifically for use with digital
camera backs in the Mamiya 645AF mount, the 645DF is a true open
platform camera system, compatible with digital backs from Leaf,
Mamiya, Phase One, and Sinar.
The photographer can now select the best shutter for the conditions --
either the integral focal plane shutter, which can be used with any of
15 existing Mamiya 645AF system lenses, or the photographer can choose
to use one of three new lenses containing an in-lens leaf shutter for
high-speed flash sync.
Combining 35mm handling ease and speed with an available image capture
area nearly 3 times larger, the Mamiya 645DF is a full-featured camera
utilizing comprehensive digital controls and LCD displays, and
featuring 19 custom settings for creative, personalized digital
photography.
In addition, Mamiya announces three new leaf shutter digital lenses,
designed for use with the new 645DF camera: the Sekor 80mm f/2.8 LS D,
the Sekor 55mm f/2.8 LS D, and the Sekor 110mm f/2.8 LS D. Designed by
Schneider-Kreuznach, and manufactured by Mamiya, these new lenses are
designed for the stringent demands of the latest high-resolution
digital backs. With top flash sync speeds of up to 1/1600 second,
these new lenses allow for effective use of professional strobe
equipment in even the brightest of conditions.
The Suggested Retail Prices for the 645DF Camera (body only) is
$5,990; Sekor 80mm f/2.8 LS D lens $2,490; the Sekor 55mm f/2.8 LS D
lens $3,490; and the Sekor 110mm f/2.8 LS D lens $3,990.
