Digital Dreams


I would never have believed I would become a gadget geek, but going digital has changed that. I had a to good to be dismissed chance to adopt an Olympus Evolt 500 complete with lenses late last year and I decided to go with it. Up to this time I had been shooting with Nikon film and Bronica SQ-Ai. Long story short I fell in love with the Olympus and it's digital SLR (I went out and compared to others). I know there are 1001 reasons why Canon and Nikon digital (and I've shot with them) are better, but I know I've decided to hold forth with it. I've always had a tendency to root for the underdog anyway. They introduced their new DSLRs with the Pro model to follow later this year. All I can say is come June, I'll be adopting the Olympus 510 and then the Pro model early next year. It's a good thing I'll be temporarily increasing my work hours for a couple of months

The photo tonight is mocking a friend's taunt calling Olympus a lemon manufacturer. And I'm just listening to blues, Kenny Wayne Shepard Band, "Deja Voodoo" because this bloody virus wants to hang on....
