Cameras

I bought a Digital SLR Camera from Ebay this week.  Not really knowing much about them, I did a bit of research (Or Googling as young people call it, and who am I to question the wisdom of the young?) and found that no-one knows anything.  Actually, to be more accurate, everyone knows everything, which amounts to much the same.  For every well informed recommendation, I could also turn to a damning review revealing the camera’s shortfalls that would be obvious to all but a badly read chimp.  I did the decent thing in the end, and took a punt on a cheap one.  The cheap one in question was the Canon EOS 300D.  This was the first sub £1000 Digital SLR back in the day, and is now hopelessly out of date.  I felt sorry for it, and gave it a new home, only to find out that my phone has more Megapixels.  I don’t know (Or care to know) what that actually means.  So I took some pictures and found that I was pleased with them.

Here’s one;

It is a picture of my Film Camera.  I like both the picture and the subject, and am very happy about the purchase.  I might post more pictures when my writing head is on sabbatical.
