So yesterday, I finally break down and get a new camera. I got a little Minolta Dimage E500, it was on closeout special at Sears. Another Minolta, I am a brand loyalist (Chevy Trucks, Craftsman Tools, Minolta Cameras) call me old fashioned, but when I find something I like, I'm a customer for life. I gave some serious thought to getting a more expensive camera, but I just couldn't justify the price. My Dad gave me his SLR with all the lenses years ago, so if I want to take any serious pictures, I'll drag it out. Honestly, I don't think I've taken a picture with it in almost 5 years. I don't go exploring to practice my photography. I go to enjoy myself, see something that is new to me and, if I think it's "photoworthy", I'll take a picture. It's not about expensive cameras, it's about having fun.......
