I'm a new X-T1 convert. After almost 6 years of use it was time to retire the trusty old D300s. Picked up the X-T1, 16-55mm 2.8 and the 35mm 1.4. All I can say is WOW. Not that the D300s was a slouch or anything. I loved that body, but the Fuji images are simply stunning. It's amazing the...

Just picked up this 2013 Crosstrek. My wife talked me into a 2010 Mini Cooper Clubman S like 6 months ago. I absolutely HATED that car. Definitely glad to have AWD and some clearance again. I want the 2" Primitive lift and 215\60\17 Yokohama Geolander A/T-S tires. I will probably install a...

Been tempted to get one of these since moving to Oregon. Would be cool to own the original. If I could ever get my Westy sold I'd be all over this.

Glad I found something about these trailers on the Expo. Ran across some of these on the Portland Craiglist from an outlet for a decent price. I bought a Westfalia to refurbish last Fall, but my wife was diagnosed with brain cancer, so the Westy project has to go along with my F150. My new...

The paint is pretty oxidized and faded as you can see I was reading about methods for oxidation removal when I came across a blog entry about toothpaste. Yes I said toothpaste. Since it's no cost out of my pocket, and the paint already looks awful....I figured why not? I grabbed a rag and...

Thanks. I did some reading about the TF49 on the Samba. It's definitely an option. I'm leaning towards something like the Edgestar though because I can move it between my 3 vehicles and my truck camper (who's fridge doesn't work). I'm not so much worried about keeping the van looking...

Not the prettiest Westy around, but I just picked up this 84 to play with. Work done by the previous owner is a new engine and tranmission 50k miles ago, new canvas a couple of summers ago, new clutch, new master and slave cylinders, new brakes, new battery and alternator. Work I have done so...

Not the prettiest Westy around, but I just picked up this 84 to play with. New engine and tranmission 50k miles ago. New canvas a couple of summers ago. Already replaced a broken j-pipe, replaced the missing exhaust strap, installed a Gene Berg Short shift kit and put in some rubber floor...

Not a great pic, but just picked up this 84 Westy last night. Muffler and exhaust tip are rusted out and need replaced to get it to pass Colorado emissions, but everything else seems sound. Engine and transmission were replaced 60k miles ago. New canvas about 2 years ago. Body has some spots and...

Took these of my little girl at 6 months. She sure does love the camera!

Captured this one this weekend camping in Southern Wyoming. This was my first attempt at Nightscapes and only hoped to photograph the Milky Way when a thunder storm rolled through the area. Had some lucky timing with this one.

The guy that I bought my 100s had some wires run on the outside of the camper. There's a + and - for the camper battery, along with a + run for power directly from the trucks battery. He had them on a toggle switch. I can have it so that the camper runs off my truck while driving, and it...

Looks awesome. Love the idea of the front a/c unit. We've had some hot days here that made me wish I had one!

Looks like a 100s (the 10 foot model). Mine has a tag just inside the door with the VIN # and model year. There are a couple on here, including my 1986. Here are some threads with pictures. Mines the first link. Your front window looks different from mine and the newer models. Yours must...

Thank you for the info. Sorry for the late response but I just saw this (been having internet issues). I have a copy of CS6, but can't say that I have used it for seaming pano's together. Autopano does such a good job that I haven't felt the need to try something different. I am a Geomatics...

That's a great shot! I've been trying to get night panos with the milky way, but none are remotely close to being as good as yours. I have tried with a 35mm 1.8 and 50mm 1.8. What body are you using? I use autopano for all of my panoramic shots. It collects tie points between the images...

Some more recent ones from me. My baby girl is obviously my favorite subject! But I also snapped one of a cousin shoeing horses in Kaycee, Wyoming.

I usually carry my D300s, 50mm 1.8, 80-200 2.8, 2x teleconverter, lens hoods, spare batteries, charger...blah blah along with a first aid kid and some misc stuff, all in my Lowepro SlingShot 202 AW. Very comfortable to carry around all day and easy access to the camera. And has a built in rain...

I suppose a persons needs and budget dictate what a full on Expo build is to them. My F150 is 16 years old and considered a budget build by most (myself included). That being said, I have camped all over Alaska in it, driven down the alcan highway without a hick-up, and now I'm using it to...
