Digital Choices and such

Well, I was really excited about going to Digital, got my Canon D30 in and it is a beautiful camera... only problem being that I also got the Swine Flu at the same time :/ So I haven't even run a series of test shots thru the camera yet... not a one. I also got my Nikon D1H at the same time, and my Olympus E-10 is on the way.

But having been so sick for the last two weeks has thrown me off my "track" so to speak. Swine Flu aint anything to mess with, believe me when I say that I have never in my life been so sick. 8 Days of 101+ temps, and I still feel weak.

Today I was looking thru all the art that has been posted since I was last on, and checking out the peeps taking those pictures, and I realized that overwhelmingly, most of the folks use Canon Digital equipment. One or two use Sony, and to my surprise, one still uses 35mm equipment like I do. I am thinking of setting up a poll on what DSLR people use, and why. Just curious about it all.

So today I am going to hopefully get a few minutes to go out and use my camera. It is bright and cold and clear. Not sure about the 1.6 ratio with my lenses, since the D30 isn't a full frame DSLR. The Nikon will have to wait until I have a lens that will work on it, and I am thinking about a 17-85 F2.8 Nikkor. but that will have to wait a bit...

Oh yeah, and my wife was at a store yesterday and she happened across a camera bag on cleanance, and picked it up for me, not really knowing if I would like it or not. Turns out to be a really REALLY nice LowePro Slingshot 200AW, great bag, and I can't wait to put my Digital gear into it and head out :)

Time to refill the coffee cup, and pack up the gear and head out! :)

Winter comes and the winds blew colder
While some grew wiser, you just grew older
And you never listened anyway,
And that's the hell of it.
