Reeves,

What kind of camera are you using?

Steve
Pheasant Hollow Farm


Canon Power Shot A520
Wife has the A540

I also have a 35mil. Canon A-1, 300 zoom with macro. As well as the normal small lens it came with...50mil ? Plus a bunch of other stuff. Put a new battery in it a week ago....so thanks for reminding me ! Wife has yet to pick some film up for me ! I like it much better than the digy ones !


Nice pictures on that digital. I am looking for a new one. Not sure what to get, but I want to be able to change lens. Any suggestions?

I know where you are coming from. The digital I have I bought over 10 years ago in 1998, when they first came out. It is an Olympus D-400 ZOOM I paid something like $799.00 for it. It still take great picture, but it is only 1.3 Megapixels.

I had a Yashica 35mm camera auto focus over 30 years ago, I don't remember the model, but it died and I still have the lenses. One is a Auto Yashinon-DS 50mm 1:2 and the other is a Auto Yashinon Zoom 1:4.5 f=75mm~230mm This lens is heavy as all can be.

I like the fact that on the digital, if you don't like delete  s020 and start over. No film to buy and no extra processing fees only to find out that the pictures look like crap.

I am willing to spend up to $1000.00 for one with standard 50mm lens and either a zoom lens, or telephoto lens with a decent size memory card.

Sunny and hot. Next rain called for is next Sunday.

As if I do not have enough to do......wife goes into work, they have a garden section, selling plants, trees etc.
Tells me they are on sale. (the trees) So like a fool I can be at times, I ask how much.
She tells me .94 (cents) so I ask how many there ? She says 30-40 ?
So I drive into town and load them up........76 Brandon Cedars 2 more thrown in free as they look poorly 78 total. Opps...5 are some kind of Juniper. Grows much the same as the Brandon.
Oh ya, two free Chive plants for the garden.
Oh ya....she also gets 10% off of all purchases there !
So, $64.30 for all the trees.

Now I have to figure out where to plant them all ! In 25+ C temps  s47
