I think you're missing the point... the point was he's not nuclear scientist (or any person that properly understands how radiation works).
-
True. If Snr did actually end up on film we would all just say it was done in After Effects.
-
hahaha true.
-
Yes it's a shame. Especially since he had his $5,000,000 1DC stolen, so I guess we will never get to see any real proof... I mean in this day an age what's a man to do?
-
That's because he's not a radiologist... he's a boy.
-
True, you hardly need a mob to work this one out. I understand your concern about the language, I guess being from Aus I don't really notice it. That being said some could be a bit more couth in their approach though I'm sure.

Advice on eBay anamorphic lens listing (No advertising)
tweak replied to Andrew Reid's topic in Cameras
No the one he posted is just a "16" I have a feeling it's an older version (pre A,S,D etc), it's similar in size and make to a 16s but slightly different. You can use 16s clamp. It has blue flares and pretty good image quality, I bought one for my brother in law. -
@PannySVHS Read the thread and get back to us...
-
Just give them their money back, the facade is way past over.
-
I would contact Raf if you want a custom clamp, he will do the best for the cheapest that I will guarantee.

"The Party Too"?
-
I had that thought briefly haha, who knows what's really going on... Honestly though, at this point Eb Snr really just needs to video call someone. If he's as rich as he says he is a 2min discussion with someone credible (like Andrew) wont be hard to arrange, nor would it be too hard to take time out from his "holliday" for. His last post was just as suspect as the first. If it were me in this situation it's one of the first things I would try and do, I wouldn't even waste my time posting here or trying to explain things.
-
Would be the smartest situation. Anything posted here from the account of Snr at this point by virtue is worthless.
-
Exactly what needs to happen un-fortunetly. Someone credible must video call, it will clear at least one part of this case up for all involved.
-
This second post is just as weird... It's pretty likely someone very close to you is the culprit (if it's really you typing Snr), as they have access to and knowledge about your gear, they also have your password (or worked it out), so surely there aren't that many possible suspects. I highly doubt many people would be able to put all those things together well and also know the finer details about an obscure piece of equipment such as the SLR RF and know it was actually worth something (it just looks like a cheap filter to any normal person). Also a common thief would just steal this product, not try and scam people online... Suspects are fairly limited I would say, unless you have an army of people working for you? Also this stuff has gone missing only recently, which should make it pretty easy to narrow down.
-
Yeah, but why? It's fun? True, he's as responsible to help fix the situation as anyone else here is. If it is actually his Grandson who has "scammed" these people though, in that scenario he should be 100% responsible to do something about it, as he's the one who shares an account and password with him! (Which is pretty stupid in itself). We still don't know enough to say anything for sure though. Yes it is sad.
-
This is the most plausible and what I've assumed the whole time. That or Snr still has no idea at all. How do you know he said that? All you know is that someone wrote that here, you have no idea who that was...
-
At least 6 other people "just figured" as well . All I'm saying is at this point you can't really trust anything like that unless you actually know the person in real life.
-
You know this how?
-
Why are you telling me this @veraguth? If you're going to quote me please add something more than your own philosophical thoughts about the definition of Truth.
-
This thread got me interested, here's my quick try at emulation today. If you can guess what steps I took let me know . I didn't add any film burns or flickers but I guess that would make it look more nostalgic if that were the look you were chasing.
-
I'm not saying I'm right, I'm merely throwing some theories out for discussion (this is a forum after all)... I just find it ironic that people now think that this is Snr typing, I mean is this not just how everyone got scammed in the first place??? It's not like I'm condemning anyone, just trying to make sense of a strange situation. I'm also sure the truth will come to light in time. I haven't thrown out any info, I'm open to all scenarios. I have nothing against Eb Snr nor do I really think he did it. I'm 100% open to all possibilities as well, just adding some food for thought and personal experience/views to the topic. As far as I can see the case is wide open.
-
"If that happens"... indeed. Speak for yourself, but my comments are driven by the desire to get to the truth. But I do agree that more talking about it will likely solve nothing, lets see what he comes up with. p.s. Lets be honest, right now we don't even know for sure that's Snr typing... Also whether their family already have a lot of money or not is irrelivant, this is the exact type of stunt a spoiled entitled rich brat would pull. It's about power and feeling they are better than somebody, not the money they get from doing it.
-
Exactly. Also it's only natural Snr would want to protect his families honour as that is very important in Egyptian culture. I feel bad for Ebrahim Snr.
