@biza43 Yes, that caught my eye too (groan) Never mention the word wrinkle to a lady though, those are "character lines" :)

I agree but I am biased as I still have my T90.

Currently sitting in my film camera collection is my first SLR a Kodak Retina Reflex an Olympus XA and a Canon T90. I've had a few other film cameras but these are the ones I just couldn't let go of.

I spent the month of May in Vancouver Expo year (1986). It rained almost every day that year for a May total of 7 inches but I still got out with my camera and got some great photos. Used a small...

When I was 4 years old I used to say gee-gee every time I saw a horse.

Apparently you have never snorkeled or scuba-ed under the right conditions.

One of the more useless comments I have seen lately. Not only elitist but also hopelessly inaccurate.

That's probably because America, or more correctly the USA, IS a country and not a continent. It is part of the...

Thank you for that information. The acquisition, if it takes place, makes much more sense now.

It took some digging but there is a FAQ at the very bottom of this page that gives the weight.

Not serious? Presumably Adobe Photoshop is not serious enough for you also. Try reading some online reviews.

The Kingfisher shot is almost exactly the same as the image taken by Alan Mcfadyen who says he spent 6 years and took 720,000 shots to get it....

@ Boused1234 I'd have to rebut that. My first digital camera was an Olympus C5050-Z. The same amount of money I paid for that, even with inflation, would buy me a lot more camera today. Features...

The C-5050Z was my first digital camera. F1.8 lens was nice and I was still occasionally using it until about a year ago when for no particular reason the smoke escaped from it. Dead as a pickle :(...

I just went and checked your link. I love this guy's work, the "Flour Power" series blew me away. The man is an artist.

Which, the Kodak? It's a beautifully made piece that I used to learn a whole bunch. I still have some nice B/W images using Tri-X 400 pushed to 1600. Lovely grain. As much as I love digital I still...

used Kodak Retina Reflex and Schneider Xenon 80 mm lens purchased in 1968 at Dixons in Cardiff. I still have it and it's perfectly usable although the pentaprism needs re-silvering. Anyone know...

I've taken a lot of images much like No. 6 trying to capture light in a way it seems I just can't quite get right. Most of them have been consigned to the great bit bucket in the sky but obviously...
