It`s been a while! Needed to take a break from posting - didn`t feel I had much to show, even though I`ve shot hundreds of snaps, and developed a few rolls of film the last few months. Perhaps I`ll post some of it later.

What got me started today was a gift from two good friends. They gave me two cameras, a Canon EOS 3, and a Canon EOS 1n DCS 520. I`ve run two rolls of Ilford Delta 3200 - (really grainy stuff) through the EOS 3, and I plan to develop the films this weekend. The other camera had an internal harddrive that was impossible to connect to my computer, so I ordered a PCMIA to CF adapter and a new battery.

The DCS 520 was one of the first Pro dSLR`s, and probably the nail in the coffin for film-photojournalism. It`s a two megapixel camera, (a little less than in a regular cellphone cam...) and I was surprised when I saw the files - they`re crisp and clear, and I believe it`s possible to print these files up to almost 20x30 cm`s.

The camera reacts just as quickly as my Nikon D200.

Here`s Ida. She loved the camera so much, she lost her color.
