The best thing I had for that camera was the 50mm lens that had a maximum aperture of 1.4 which really allowed for nice depth of field. Mine was the Canon T-60.

I like the color Dairy Queen one. It has kind of a desolate 'Route 66' kind of feel to it. As for the SLR, for me it's all about versatility but that versatility came with price tags too high for the longest time. One thing I didn't mention also was how much I miss optical viewfinders. Most digital cameras have a digital image that is bounced back off a mirror or you use the LCD screen. I guess I am old school and still really like looking through the viewfinder. I feel equipment is too overrated. People spend thousands on camera equipment they'll never need simply because somebody told them getting a Nikon SLR was better than getting a Nikon P&S. Meanwhile, the only time they bust out the camera is for parties and special events. A waste. For me? It's been a long time coming for the digital SLR and now the time is right. Those are nice shots.

Photography was my life. Then film and video and computing took over And I hadn't owned a camera analog or otherwise for awhile. So I got a cheap Olympus digital for snapshots, $140. Well I was really surprised. After converting the images to grey scale, and a little tweaking they make for quite rich b&w pictures. And of course I love the expansion possibilities. I just can't justify the $500 plus price tags anymore when I pay so little for digital. I had a darkroom in every house I lived as a military brat. Photography was my life.
