Photography
Is anyone into photography? I've been into it for about 2 1/2 or 3 years. I have a Canon Elan 7E(I love it, best camera I've ever had) with a vert. grip/battery pack. I have three lenses: 28-80mm, 80-200mm, and set 500mm. Hopefully I'll have a 1000-4000mm lense pretty soon. 
Do you like film or digital better?

I used to do a lot of photography when I was in high school. I have an old Pentax K-1000 35mm that is in immaculate condition. I have a Vivitar flash, a 28mm wide angle lens, a 400mm telephoto lense, a 2x converter, and a nice aluminum case for all the gear. Here recently I've gotten back into film again and am looking for a 10-20' cable release so I can be in the family pictures. I have a Nikon digital camera with an optical zoom and a separate wide angle lense and I also love the convenience of digital photography. I always get my film pictures on CD as well so I can edit and print them on the computer.

Am I Into Photography?
I live in Rochester, NY, the home of Eastman Kodak: WE DON'T HAVE A CHOICE!!
Seriously, don't get to do much with it lately, but around here somewhere are the following: a nice old Olympus OM-10, a Kodak Advantix (nice for snapshots), a Kodak Handle instant camera, a Brownie 50th Anniversary Box, a Kodak CX4230 digital (love it- any MORON can use the software it comes with), and an original brown-leather-and-stainless Polaroid Land camera in LIKE-NEW condition (are those worth anything? It dates from the late 40s).
If you're REALLY into photography, and you ever get to Western New York, a MUST is a stop at the International Musueum of Photography at the George Eastman House, right here in Rochester. The house has been featured TWICE on A&E's "America's Castles."

I mostly work in b/w. Have a darkroom, computer color enlarger, film processor, etc. I like black and white more than color because there are so many more options. When you print a picture in color, there are not many options. B/W has a lot more and is more fun. That is, until Kodak goes out of business, which may be soon.

Since I got my digital camera I find it very useful to post pics of machine work on various websites. I don't take pictures like most people do. It is also handy to take some shots before taking something apart. Plus you don't have to wait for prints.
