Consumer Electronics - 25 June 2007

OK..here is a question, just so that I can understand it.

lets say i have a 100 mm lens. As far as I understand things, if I attached this lens to say a canon rebel xti camera which has a sensor smaller than the size of a 35mm camera, it would produce a much different result if I place the same lens on say a canon 5d full size 35mm size equivalent sensor.

So if the smaller chip in the rebel xta results in a 1.6 (converstion, as I have read)

my 100 mm lens now becomes a 160mm on the rebel xti,

BUT wouls still act as a 100 mm on the full sized chip in the
canon 5d??


so my lens focal lenght depends on the size of the sensor???

I wanted a digitas SLR camera around Rs. 15000 to Rs. 20000 by which i can do photography for indoors as well as outdoor. It should be also good for nature photography, closeup.

In my home, I have discovered a collection of old 78 records together with 45's and 331/3 records/discs; many have their original covers.

Unfortunately some of the records/discs have become covered in dust.

What is the safest way to remove the dust and clean up the records/discs?

I'm sure that I have some rare records/discs amongst my find and once I get them cleaned up, I would like to be able to transfer them on to CD's or DVD's, for my own use.

Please give me some guidance on the safest way to clean these oldies.

Shop person was suggesting me , not to use high rated battery (Like 2500 mAH) These high amps battery may fuse the motor inside. (The zooming motor. ) He said I can use 700mAH cells or alkline cells. Please advice me, Im already having 4X2500 and 4X700mAH . Atleast can I use my 2500 as backup? Or not to USE ATALL . Body is Canon 350D and Lens is Sigma 18-200. Thanks .

Sony's website shows that the F717 compatibility tops out at 2gb

But I see several places selling 4gb MS Pro/Pro Duo sticks and listing the F717 as a compatible model.

ok. I have read reviews and looked at answers here. There seems to be the opinion that both are about equal. Are nikon lenses typically better? Apparently not all nikon AF lenses are compatible. Has anyone actually tested both cameras ??

I was wondering if the gauge of a wire makes a difference in the volume level of the speaker? I have speakers in the back of my room and the volume level seems to be much lower then the speakers in the front that have a lower gauge wire and im now sure if it a setting on the reciver or the wire gauge. All the speakers are all 155W.

I had my chocolate phone for Verizon wireless for about a week and have used the vibrate function a lot especially when I am at work. However today I noticed that when I turn my power button on or off on the cell phone, the phone no longer vibrates. I even made sure the the ringer is on vibrate mode.

When I get a incoming call, the cell phone flashes and tells me who is calling but again no vibration from the cell phone. What do you think is this a software or phone issue ? The vibration feature worked fine when I first purchased the phone but now it is not working at all. Do you think I should return it to Verizon and get another replacement. Any suggestions ?

Around the Power button and around the "ok" button is blinking blue, and it never said that the battery was low and the camera wont turn on to take pictures. I checked the website and the booklet but it was no help.

I had a free XBOX Live Silver account (but never a Gold account - So I don't believe it has anything like credit card info or anything saved on it) and a couple of game saves. I am guessing the guy that bought it from me will just delete the stuff as soon as he sees it on there. But is there anything on there that I should be concerned about getting in the wrong hands?
