Music is lame though, I recommend muting the audio and listening to something else. - D  This post is:  Informative (2) | Funny (0) | Huh?

I thought it was a very interesting video and I'm happy to see the quality care that goes into memory cards. Even though this is a Lexar Commercial, I'm sure Sandisk put the same care in its memory cards. I'd like to see a similar video on how they make light sensitive film might be pretty interesting but a very dark video.I guess we would be looking at machines since they can't expose the film. .......They did say half way through that they are shipped to China for assembly.

Does Nikon have a similar video on a camera's birth?  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh? (0) | Off Topic (0) | Inappropriate (0) |   Definitions Add your comments...
