Coming back from Over the Rainbow

Mon Apr 24, 2006, 7:16 PM
I'm slowly but surely coming back to good old DA from over the ghastley rainbow of reality. Sooner or later I will get my hands on #1 a scanner or #2 a digital SLR camera. I have been out of business for TOO long. With my camera breaking 2 years ago, I have only had a 35mm lender for the past 4 months. Terrible. Without my knowing it, 2 years ago someone dropped my camera from its normally safe perch above everyone's heads on a highschool sports trip. That day it simply stopped working properly. A Minolta 35mm. Gosh, it has been so long that I have forgotten what MODEL it was! For shame... Anyways, I have been checking out peoples work and I admit that I am excited to get into the loop. A Canon 20D I've ordered has been on backorder for the past 3 months, so I am pitching it to the winds, canceling that order, and placing a new order for a Nikon D200...possibly. I will do much more research on this issue, but it looks as though that is the option I'm leaning towards. So, that's the deal.


Bree, I'm betting you're the only one reading these...so...I hope you're enjoying! lol

Rock on, man. It's great to hear from you. I really thought that my return to DA had gone mostly unnoticed. *laughs* Well, thank goodness for friends who stick with it. Thanks for the advice. How have you been these days? Still working with the photoshop up on the hill?

HEY! :dance: Thanks Cat. I'm really excited to get back into this. I have come a long ways from what I used to be doing. I've been looking at old photgraphs and thinking..."This is what I would have done different to make it better..." I have some pictures I really want to put up, but I have no scanner. Plus it's getting close to finals week and I have an 8-10 page report due next Monday. So I keep it minimal with journals and comments. Thanks again for tuning in! Love you too!! :glomp:

I was excited about the Canon; it IS a good camera. But I was more excited about the fact that it was digital and SLR. I'm not good enough to have any preferance or knowledge of the distinction between Nikon SLR and Canon SLR and what they are best used for. However, I have seen more done with the Nikon. So I think that's going to be my final answer. :tmnt3:

Let me know how that movie is, I was very curious to see how well they made it! I played a LITTLE bit of the game and it scared the bageezus out of me. It was too hard and I'm not big on that style of gameplay so I never got very far in it.
