    I do use a digital device in my photographic pursuits when necessary.

    This one is sold,
    Thanks,
    Jon

    Inside info? Yes...all the info on all these cameras is inside info. It all comes from inside the over-ripe cantaloupe I refer to as my head.

    This is nothing. I have a Hasselblad that was owned by Abraham Lincoln. True story.

    I agree 100%...perfect "on your feet" thinking. In fact, I hate to admit it, but I've found myself singing that to myself more than once this morning.

    You know how songs will get stuck in your head? Lately I have had that problem a lot with "Tangerine" by Eliane Elias. Have you ever heard it? Here...let's see if it gets stuck in anyone else's head: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I6wjEktBhOk Pretty slick for a song from 1941, yes?
