Jesus, help me find my proper place
Help me in my weakness
'Cos I'm falling out of grace
Jesus

I find that I have extremely high standards for someone who isn't Ms. Fantastic herself. Oops.
And that I'm pretty lazy and have little patience for tinkering with old technology. Am checking out a Canon AE-1 Program tomorrow from a Craigslist buyer (prefer the all-black A-1 for looks, but that is only on eBay). I like the look of shots taken with old cameras, and this late 70's clunker has a Program (Auto) mode! Revolutionary for its time. Dunno how I'll like manual focus though. Using old cameras is such a labor of love. Too much love for things? I'm loving the military/rugged/understated look of the legendary Domke camera bags. It's almost enough to make me get the gear to fill it up. Trying not to become a gearhead and start out modest..
Edit 1/26/09: I got the Domke F-3x (in sand)! I made an offer to an Ebay seller after I saw the item location was Dallas, TX. Picked it up on the way back home this weekend. It fits my 3 camera bodies and 1 accessory or 2 camera bodies and a few accessories. The canvas and construction is solid. Love it! I look forward to carrying it around at all times (maybe make it my new purse?). : p
