I think I finally made out the WHY in http://www.whyfilmcameras.com! The site’s name came to me as I pondered over really why I like film and it’s gorgeous cameras. It was obvious to me that I loved them, but less obvious to pinpoint the reason to it. A word of warning first!

Film is said to be expensive! Might well be, if you don’t factor in the recurring cost of a digital camera (after all you ‘have to’ renew at least every 3 years to be up to the challenge!).
Or not?
News from Kickstarter…. once again! But this one looks great!
That’s where it’s at for me and Adobe. From now on Adobe is just a mud brick for me, not any enslaving subscription software (I wonder about the ‘other organic materials’ mentioned in the definition above 😉 ).
Yes, I hate it with a passion!

I guess most of us carry a shiny square of metal/glass/plastic that has become the Swiss Army Knife of our civilisation, if I may call this sorry state a civilisation, sorry to all you Romans, Greek, Chinese, Indian, Phoenician, Maya etc out there.
No, that’s (unfortunately) not the number of visits on my blog 😉
It’s the serial number of my humble Pentacon 135mm f:2.8 lens. No, not the so called Bokeh Monster, the cheap one.
It’s been cold and wet mostly the weeks prior to my surgery, in my mobile days and now that I’m codemned to sitting at home with a maximum of 10 Minutes of staying upright per hour, the sun’s out and temps will go to an unseasonable 20 plus degrees celsius (68 F).

All went well according to the doc! Hope he’s not joking this time. Continue reading I’m back…. and meaner than ever!
I told the doctor I was very scared! He said: ‘me too’ Funny guy! Continue reading Here we go!
