Here kitty Kitty. My niece's cat over the holiday. Shot with the D90
I have for sale, coincidentally.

Yeah that closeup of the horse statue was with my 70-210 telephoto. Although it seems finicky with metering (always seems to open the f-stop to the max in Program mode) all I have to do is shoot in aperture priority with it. And it does take nice, sharp pics. And, I was surprised at the lower light photos, too.

i ALWAYS KNEW THOSE LENSES WE.....were sharp, I was telling anyone who would listen to pick one up for $40 from Ado,
but THAT shot is sharper than I even thought you could get with that combination. Nice work.....tripod? I ended up buying
a total of three of em last year, gave two to family, kept the one I liked best.

No tripod, either.

Smashing! Must have been a lot of light out there that day.

Neat shot, Jeff.

Well my Best Buy credit card made me do a bad thing....
Made me order a Sony RX100
[Reply]

That is bad.....because if there is one thing I know, YOU SIR, cain't be sassified.
The rabbit hole is dug just a little deeper.
Takes one to know one, I guess.
What I DON'T understand is how you could not want your other high-dollar compact
and you want this one. By most accounts, your Canon did pretty well, even in lower
light.

My fear for you is that you are NOW going through what I DID and you WATCHED me do it.
You are just going through it on the other end of the line. Careful what you wish for
when what you really want is a DSLR. DAMN YOU 'newest and best', lol.

This one is WAY smaller than the g1x. I think I got tired of lugging it around just like I did my DSLR
[Reply]

Yeah, it IS kinda small....and its a SONY. They make a fine compact camera, and I guess now they
have the number one ILC camera, a pretty good DSLR, they make great TVs, they own Michael Jackson's
BONES, and maybe the Elephant Man's, too. Sony ought to do you fine. Oh by the way, in this argument
of you becoming me, did you notice I took a cat photo, lol?
[Reply]

Lmao. It's very small. No bigger than my iPhone really. I'll be posting some film pix later today.
[Reply]

ahh, OK, you kept that gear, huh? I am getting the Credit Card itch again, but for the most part I am still SELLING rather
than buying. MANY of my nieces and nephews got Nikon DSLRs this Christmas, lol. I think I went from having 12 bodies
on hand to having 6-7 of em. Selling the D90's will leave me with 4-5.
[Reply]

Haha. Kept the minolta and the canon élan and the 40mm pancake
[Reply]

Ok here's a few of the film shots. Shot on Ilford XP2 Super 400 35mm
