Got a good quality picture of the sharpie badge @dingoroo.net did for me at MFF and I figured I'd show everyone who didn't already get it shoved in their face at the con x3

I'm just a little guy!!! Absolute perfect bean!
A con badge drawn in sharpie markers. A cartoonish wolf character is drawn sitting above the name "Rudolf" The badge is in a transparent "Ultra Pro" branded card sleeve with a hole punched at the top so it can be worn on a lanyard.

Pink plastic focus free camera with a lens worse than a disposable...

...and it has a hotshoe 😎
A pink plastic 35mm film camera with a focus-free lens and a hot shoe. The camera has a logo on it that says "4friends" and there's a large Vivitar thyristor flash mounted in the shoe.

This is a dumb idea and I'm leaving my computer now.

...but I'm still curious where I'd land x3
A political compass with the labels changed. The X axis is labelled "easy to interact with online" on the left, and "hard to interact with online" on the right. The Y axis is labelled "Hard to interact with IRL" toward the top, and "Easy to interact with IRL" toward the bottom. Each quadrant of the chart is labelled: the top left quadrant reads "ghosted! ad the convention" with a subtitle saying "Maybe next year!" with a trademark symbol following it. The top right quadrant is labelled "I just can't reach them." The lower left quadrant is labelled "everywhere friend," and the lower right is labelled "IRL friend."

...Could I be an ice cream sidecar?

And hitches for these things look so dumb to begin with, might as well just leave it off if you're not going to use it.

Wait... is @keyotter.bsky.social contagious? I might have caught it from him!
Key Otter, a light blue otter/yoshi fursuiter with yellow hair, eyes, and a long yellow tongue stands on the left of the frame. His tongue rests atop the muzzle of a large wolf fursuiter, Rudolf, who stands on the right of the frame. Rudolf's tongue is magnetically holding Key Otter's badge.

Trying something.
Pink minky fabric with a pencil mark on the backing. A pair of fabric scissors, a Palomino Blackwing 602 pencil, and a fursuit tongue are resting on top of the minky fabric.

Hey...

I don't feel entirely safe coming back here; I think I'm still being watched.

I just wanted to say thank you.

Ok the other model with that feature, the Rebel T2, may be even more early 2000s.

Curved matte silver colored plastic? Who does that these days?

Got myself what could be the single most early-2000s looking film SLR Canon ever made

Iridescent logo, so shiny

I am once again pondering my orb.
Rudolf holding a transparent sphere in his paw. An inverted image of Rudolf can be seen within the sphere, along with bright points of light with eight diffraction spikes each. The sphere and the inverted image of Rudolf that can be seen through the sphere appear in focus, while Rudolf appears out of focus. There are some various colored lights interspersed throughout the image from lens flare.

God, how does anyone think this garbage is remotely useful?

AI is worse at bullshitting than the average teenager.
3.9 Auto Focus Assist Light Also on the front of the camera is the red Autofocus Assist Light. It emits a patterned near infrared light that will allow the camera to autofocus in otherwise complete darkness. This light comes on automatically and very briefly when the camera is autofocusing in low light situations. It's [sic] range is up to 21 feet for center AF point and 13 feet for side AF points. This will depend on the lens being used. If you have an external Speedlite flash unit attached the camera will usually use the AF assist light in the external flash instead of the one built into the camera body. This will save the camera battery power and the external lights are usually more powerful. Some external flash (the rest of the text was left out of the screenshot) AI Overview The Canon EOS 50E uses a different method for its "autofocus illuminator" than typical cameras. Instead of a visible AF-assist beam, it has an advanced Eye-Control Focus system, which uses a hidden infrared beam to measure where you're looking and activate the autofocus point accordingly. This system allows the camera to know where in the viewfinder you are focusing, making it the "illuminator" in a sense, as it directs the camera to focus where you are looking.

Some time I think it'd be funny to rent one of these and stuff it in a fursuit head to *really* show people what it's like.

Here's a baby turtle I shot with a Canon in 2017. I hope they're doing alright.

(Moved it off the bike trail closer to a nearby pond)

A photo of a baby turtle in some white gravel. The turtle has yellow stripes on its head and neck, and some red on the edges of its shell-- it appears to be a painted turtle, (Chrysemys picta) a common species native to North America.
