I would try sepia colors or two-colors BW.. just came to my mind when I saw that. But it looks good as it is.

Venus
I lost exif data, sorry. Taken with DMC-FZ28.
I did a little bit of touchup in GIMP, to bring the colors out a bit more. The two pictures I used were a few minutes apart and I think I bumped the camera a bit, so they don't line up exactly

Another Filco, mine's not at 1337 at Marin's blank one though. White balance is probably pretty off, I don't have a color calibrator.

i just looked at how much those were,,,, oh lord.... wow... i like a nice keyboard but no way are those worth $120+

**Mescalamba** · 06-03-2010, 04:19 AM

Mechanical = Expensive .. 7G is cheapest I think?

They're built better than any rubber dome keyboard I've ever used. Plus they feel a hell of a lot better to type on.

Have you ever tried the Logitech illuminated kb ?

I haven't, but it uses scissor switches and I've heard good things about it though.

**jspace** · 06-03-2010, 01:21 PM

One of my friends is set on getting a Filco with Blues. I like the idea of getting a Realforce 87U though

The board in my pic has Browns in it. I originally had a Filco with Blues, but coffee isn't very forgiving. The "s" key tends to bounce (registers multiple presses with one press). I'm gonna pull it apart eventually though.

Oh, they most definitely are worth the price. After you find the switch that works for you theres no going back.

Here's a video of me typing on mine (and bottoming out the keys). You can hear the click the Cherry Blues make, the Cherry Browns have the tactile response but lack the click mine has.

Nah, you can get your hands on a Mechanical keyboard for pretty cheap.

Totally gets slaughtered by a mechanical keyboard.

After picking up my Filco w/ Browns, I noticed that the Blues have a smoother stroke too.

**Marin** · 06-03-2010, 05:08 PM

I still need to give browns a try. I just went for the complete opposite of the Alps switch my M1 uses (compares to Cherry Reds and Blacks).

But my next KB purchase will be this: http://elitekeyboards.com/products.p...2&pid=pdkb400b

Should make a nice substitution for the laptop keyboard.

Didn't realize he was talking about the KB.

**Lestat** · 06-03-2010, 06:28 PM
