Not as New as My Equipment Would Suggest

13 years 3 months ago #18959 by historyguy
I'm only carrying a little P&S Olympus 8010 right now. Had to sell off my good equipment a few years back when I hit a rough patch. I found I was unhappy without some type of camera, so I picked up this little one. I'll work at building back up to better equipment as time - and money - permit.

Some of the best shots are with a P&S. Its the eye behind the camera take captures the scene. Welcome.

Shoot, learn and share. It will make you a better photographer.

I can sympathize. I just laid out some big bucks - well, big to me - for a Sony Alpha DSLR-A55 with a couple of nice lenses. But I had to have quite awhile to get the money together. Hang in there. And meanwhile, enjoy photography with the equipment you do still have.
