At the bottom of each of your postings (not just this thread), you have some image. Presumably it's from your "signature". Anyway, the link is to a website that requires a password to sign in, and it's very annoying to some of us. Below is the link, but mangled so it won't pop up:

Please remove it, as currently I need to skip around your messages.

Why did you put a link in your email message that asks for a
Password Kun?
You're making me nervous...

As per the Nikon person I spoke to all they take up is the cameras that he delivers to them when he teaches them how to take pictures in space..

And yes it is different as persepctive is quite strange...

But all Astronauts go through a Nikon Class before leaving...So I would think they carry Nikon Cameras...

And that Kodak Monolith is just a Nikon in Disguise anyway...

Finally talked to my buddy that works at the NASA photolab here in Houston.

Most serious earth observation photography done with Hassleblads.

Digital:

Tried the Kodak DCS 460 for a while. This is the one they thought was giving color shifts due to radiation effects. Switched to DCS 760 which worked better, probably because of the magnesium case (although there would be more than usual hot pixels). Used for in-cabin photos and some "recreational" earth obs.

EVA (spacewalks):
This is incredible to me - UNMODIFIED F5s!

Currently the guys are evaluating Kodak 14n and D100.
