Absolutely spectacular!

Now why didn't my pictures of Yellowstone and Oak Creek Canyon come out
like that?

You really need to take a trip to DC and capture the local scenery! Maybe
with Reggie during cherry blossom time?

Been there, done it. I have a vey nice collection of DC shots. It's an
extremely photo-rich location. Unfortunately, my shots were taken quite a
number of years ago and reside on 35mm slides and some old prints of those
slides that are showing their years from fading. It's definitely a place
worth revisiting.



Would it be possible to share that with a friend of mine in Holland? He's
been through a lot of that country by motorcycle, so he'd appreciate the
work tremendously.

Sure. Go ahead and forward him the link. The link is only good for six
more days.


Thanks for sharing that. Most cool!

Yup...laugh it up at someone elses misfortune.
I imagine you'd be in hysterics if Tom had broken his neck.

Hate to be a pest, but I'd love to view your work if it's not too much
trouble to add another.

Slight change of subject. I was perusing your small boat building web site
and I find it quite impressive. You should be very proud of the various
boats you have constructed.

Are you intentionally generating an intermittent, 1/2 second, "gurgle"
sound when the site is open? Before I go searching for what it is, please
enlighten me. From some of the posts of yours I've read here, it sounds
like some thing quirky you would do.

Thanks

You won't find many professionals using film anymore. Just the
specialized large format stuff. But the good thing about that is you
can find *tons* of really high quality 35mm SLR film cameras being
offloaded for cheap since no one wants that stuff anymore. Ebay and
Craigslist are your friend.

I was in WalMart the other day and saw a new Canon EOS Rebel 35mm film
SLR for about what it costs you to fix your sticking shutter. If you
want new, that would be perfect for her class. It has all the modes
you mentioned.

Good thoughts.
She'll need my lenses, which won't fit Canon. I'll go the used route.

FYI, just bought a supposedly good X-700 on ebay for $68.00 total
cost. Came with a couple lenses, but will take mine too.
Thanks again for the advice. I had already started to look for a
repairman for my 102, but you sobered me up.

I've been looking at the new E-3 anyway - good excuse to get one.

You owe it to yourself to give the new D300 a hard look. If I was
shopping
today, that's where I'd go and never look back. It's that good. Camera
of
the Year and deservedly so.

If you're on a budget, look on ebay for the ton of D200's that people
are offloading now because the D300 came out. You can pick up a D200
for 1/2 of what someone paid for it just a few months ago, and less
than 1/2 the price of a D300. And most of them are in pretty much
like new condition because the camera update cycle is so short.

Yes, the D300 is nice. But the little bit extra it gives you isn't
worth anywhere near over twice the going rate for a D200. Especially
if most of your photography isn't of indoor low light without a flash,
which is the only place the D300 really outpaces the D200.

Yes, I have a D200. And it's awesome. Mate it up with the 18-200 VR
zoom lens and you have the ultimate walk around camera.

Here's some shots I took last week with that combo on a little walk
around tour of New Hope, PA. I just bought it myself and these are
the first pictures I took. I'm looking forward to even better ones
once I really get to know the camera.

Nice shots, Steve, especially the locomotive. I'm also a D200 owner, as
are
several other folks here, and I love mine. I just sent my 18-200 VR back
to
Nikon to get the auto-focus checked. But I like the outfit. I can think of
nothing that would make me trade up, unless I dropped mine walking down
the
steps!

"All decisions are the result of binary thinking."

Looked at Craigs list for D200 prices. They have not dropped since the D300
came out. Actually most of the prices were very close to what a New York
mailorder camera store will sell for new.

Is there an easy way or reasonable way to transfer slides to CD? My dad
left lots of slides and quite a few of them I would like to transfer to CD.
