    Do I Really Need To Spend $1000

    Thanks for the reply. I am attaching a photo I took with the N90s with Fuji Superia 400 film that was at least 3 years old and had been sitting in a desk drawer. I scanned the negative on a HP flat bed scanner model Scanjet 4370( far from being a high end scanner). The photo is by no stretch of...

    Do I Really Need To Spend $1000

    I probably should have added to my question " when I can wait 6 months and buy the camera body for 35 to 50% less than today,s price." Just as I posted about the Canon 20D being for sale at Luminous Landscape for $350 with a great lens. Wasn´t the 20D around $1500 without lens when it first...

    Do I Really Need To Spend $1000

    I also liked this observation from Michael: " My guess though is that I had 50% more gear with me than I needed to," When I was in my 20´s and went to Hawaii every year I took 2 boards with me. One was a 9´4" for riding Haleiwa, Chuns, Pipeline or many of the small breaks on the North Shore...

    Do I Really Need To Spend $1000

    I visited photographer David Peterson´s site this morning and after viewing his awesome photos taken with a Nikon D40 and KIT LENS(which can now be bought for around $400) I asked myself why in the world do I need to spend $8000, $4000, $2000 or even $1000 for a new camera. I invite you to visit...

    The Shot That Won It All

    "I don´t need a big camera, I can get by with the little point and shoot." I am curious what a BIG camera is. I really don´t think Canon had anything to do with the contest being won by a photographer with a less than $100 used point and shoot Canon camera.. I know for a fact it was...

    Baja 1000 Motorcycle "Night Rider" 11-21-08

    Photo taken at Erendira Mile 515 at 5:42pm. No camera zoom and not cropped. There are 2 photos of the same shot. The first is how it came out of the camera and the second I tweaked with Picasa so you could see the bike and rider. I haven't a clue about post processing.
