So sorry for your loss; it's so hard when they go.


Thanks. She gave us (especially my wife) such wonderful companionship.

I've found that (in my mind at least):

1) everything looks better on film;
2) everything looks even better on medium format film

Contax 645 + 45mm

Oh man, so sorry. I hope she didn't suffer. Still mourning my Peppers who passed last August 3rd.

It's not just go hug your pets. Go hug your loved ones every chance you get.

Sweet pic, and this is why we take pics.

Everything does look 'better' on film!

I still haven't figured out why. I think it has to do with us wanting an interpretation of the scene or subject.

Do you have a waist level finder for the Minolta?

No - I go old school and have someone kick me down low. I then am able to get those low level pics when I am doubled over.

I akshully looked at the WLF for the XK but it is non metered for about $300 so I lost interest. My F2's WLF is already non metered, and the F3's is metered (metering is in the camera body not the finder) which makes it really nice to use.

The CRC metering in the XK is really good, so I'd hate to lose that.

Three hundred dollars for a folding hood? That’s enough for fifteen $20 P&S!

CatLabs 100 really looks like Lomo Metropolis.

And that's the thing - my Canon SureShot Ace comes with a WLF and a regular VF and has a camera attached to it - all for $13!

If the price is right, I'll figure a way to roll up that lawn.
