Olivia, I was looking at dpreview and trying to figure out which model you had.
Chip - there is a new Olympus that is only out a very short time with a range from 50-500mm and I think 2.5
Kathy, congratulations. Getting published is good. Getting paid for it well that's another story. I would love to go up to that workshop and others, it's been years.
Yes, I did get paid for the headshot session - it was taken for an ad. I did some product photography too that's up on the web and that client keeps coming back!
Do they still make Velvia?
Yes, but, I am all digital. Probably should donate my film camera to a school/student somewhere.
Good to hear from you guys.
Chip, There is always so much to learn in the photo world. I absolutely love all the aspects of it! You can never be too old to learn new things.
Olivia, I do have a point and shoot type Canon and it works great-but the creative control has become very important to me. I would have a very hard time leaving the SLR behind. I did put it away in London and was sorry that I did not take it everywhere. I wish it weighed ounces and not pounds.
