So we're all in agreement:

Just remember, we're doing the exact same thing, but better, to everyone else.

@Arken: Which you gotta admit, pretty clever.

You gotta admit, this is pretty clever.

@clearzero: its those pesky private API's.

Translated: It costs too much for us to enforce, therefore we'll say it's difficult to do, until someone figures out a way to make it cheaper.

Dude, awesome luck!

@ilovetofu: jesus christ that is the worlds largest mac mini.

@Mike Zuniga Has A Website: The best lens is the one you have, for the shots you want to take.

I think I'd just get in the habit of recharging my batteries the night before, and save myself the $200 or so this would cost.

wow man sucks, I know you were joking about laughing at people in the office.

i like quickr instead.

@KryptonZero: You make excellent points (god we're so old).

@KaZx: You're right. But first it's the "backup" camera, then its the backup, backup camera.

@kylecpcs: Yeah I had no idea that his studio was that hardcore till I saw the Red/Boom setup!

@RigAudio: I think it's probably more to do with the amount of time not spent managing your computer.

@pixelsnader: Naw, it's more like, as an experienced professional photographer, he's probably been burned by equipment failures before, and this is the result of his painfully learned lessons.

Not just any photog. Chase Jarvis. Dude's studio is dope.

@Lucian Armasu: What other option do I have? Dump my phone that has a 2 year contract? Or wait till I absolutely have to move to the new iOS and hope EFF jiuclaws Apple in the nuts.

@Andrew Malkin: Calling JD an assclown, is an ad hominem attack, and weakens your argument immensely.
