Anyone else having this problem??? So you can see the pictures? But they arn't clear right Probably when we compress them they loose a lot of quality. Mine are going from 1.5mb down to around 50kb or less Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 you need to muck around with your light balance toque as well. Link to post Share on other sites
mattlucas 0 Posted March 3, 2006 Author Share Posted March 3, 2006 nope I like them darker For most of my scenic pictures I have lighter ones as well. I just choose to put the darker ones up because I think they look better Link to post Share on other sites

sock_monkey 0 Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 haha, do it toque. i have to get up at 4:45 to get the first shink up to Fukushima. good day tomorrow, 4 hour climb with full pack, 2 hr descent and 2hr flats to the ryokan. i hope the view's nice! btw the new bindings are shweeeet! they feel so much more solid than the old ones, even in touring mode there's almost zero lateral give. can't wait to put 'em on the snow. plus, they only weigh a couple of ounces more so it shouldn't be much of a difference on the climb. and i really effed the old ones, i didn't notice the broken pivot arms because they were on the other binding. one was a clean break and the other was halfway. man i'm glad i didn't hurt myself on the way to the car.

Ocean11 0 Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 NPM, most browsers these days have a horrible setting that resizes the picture to fit the browser window. Could that be the problem? If it is, you need to find that option and uncheck it. My 2 computers died recently and I had the devil of a time rediscovering all of the tweeks I'd made to make them nicer to use.

sock_monkey 0 Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 the pivot arms on the new ones have about 4 times the cross section and aren't hollow. the plate rails are also solid instead of hollow. if they do have problems the warranty is 2yrs. and i have some spare parts from the old ones in a jam. though i'll try to warranty them if i can Link to post Share on other sites
mattlucas 0 Posted March 3, 2006 Author Share Posted March 3, 2006 2 year warrenty is pretty good and I bet they'd even extend it if you busted them because they don't want anymore bad press But that is a really beefy binding. I saw today that the DIN goes to 13 not that 1 extra is that big of a deal but... Let us know if it is different 4 hours up sounds like a slog with a heavy bag. But at least you don't have all the camping stuff to carry. Link to post Share on other sites
