Camera Talk

See anything interesting enough that makes you want to pull out your debit/credit card?

Waiting for the Panasonic GX7 m4/3 body to get below $700.

What is a bridge camera? (maybe that is what I am waiting for)

You know me. I am Film to the death. So if I do get another Digital it would be a gift from a friend who does not understand.

I'm gonna be looking at a buddy's Olympus OM-D M5 later this week. Think he's gonna let me try it out over the weekend. if so, i'll make a report about it.

I think you will like. I am very fond of mine.

I have so cameras now that this is a hard question for me to answer. I have an assortment of film and digital cameras purchased from thrift stores. The newest that I have bought new is a Panasonic ZS25 point and shooter, hardly ever use it.
The digital camera I like the best is a Conon D-60 {6.3 mp} . I have a few ef lens from some film cameras that work well on it. Then I bought new a 50mm 1.8 lens for it. Paid twice as much for the lens than I did for the camera. And I don't have to worry about dropping it, somebody already done that
But if I were to buy a new one it would be a Canon or Nikon.

Pentax K-3.
(anbody wanna buy a good K7?...i got one spare.......)

I voted "No Plans" because I've got too many film cameras to sort out at the moment, and I just bought a digicam last year. But if I had my druthers, and could plan for it, it would be a Nikon DSLR.

Some of the Thriftstore cameras are getting up there in MPs, and they are going for $20.00 +{what's this world coming to?}.
My two favorites right now are the D-60 EOS Canon 6.3mp and with it's limitations and all the Olympus D-490 Zoom 2.1mp.
Unless I hit the Lottery I won't be buying anything 'new' soon.
