Cameras used:
I have had access to various cameras over the years from 35mm.film to some of the latest digital cameras.
Each has it's own uses, attachments and to some degree faults and curiosities.
Film: My last 35mm film camera was a Minolta Dynax 5000i + 70-120mm. auto focus lens.
(Watch out for 'red eye' unless you use a separate flash!).
Others have included models from Praktica, together with lens from bellows and microscope attachments. To wide angle 28mm and 350mm fixed lens + X2 & X3 converters. These older cameras formed the basic kit to allow me to take a very wide range of subject materials.
Digital: Current cameras - Fujifilm FinePix S602zoom - 6 mega pixel SLR
Equipped with slots for Smart media and Compact Flash cards, it is an excellent camera for the more serious photographer. The zoom is equivalent to a 35 - 210 mm on a 35mm camera. It has Macro and Super Macro for some really close up shots and unlimited video when using larger Compact Flash cards or a Microdrive.
- Sony P100 5 mega pixel
Sony memory stick. A neat pocket sized camera, plenty of features including Video. Excellent for point & shoot on 'Auto' mode. Very good quality pictures and a nice bundle of software with the camera.
Previous cameras - Canon PowerShot G1 - a nice little camera - easy to use and has many features. Has been updated by Cannon to the latest G3, which has even more features you may never use....
Kodak DC260 - mechanical / digital zoom - easy to use, but eats batteries! A wide range of quality settings and easy to down-load onto your PC or laptop.
Epson 600 & 700, Point and shoot cameras, which are easy to use.
Some of these cameras below are getting into the Professional range - to say the least!!
