Guess the old brain cells just aren't kicking in for some people, huh. It's like kindergarten or something.

Anyway, how about the rest of us try some intelligent discourse? Anybody have any decent mods on their cameras? People flip their lids when they see my self-retaining lens cap. Anyone else?

MB-16 battery pack for my N80... does the job very well. provides me extra juice when i need it, and AA's are so cheap compared to the stupid batteries my cameras use as standard... I suppose you could say I supercharged it :cool:

also, might get a motor drive for my R8 sometime... :rheart:

Only professionals need many.

Do you need to be a professional walker to wear more than one pair of shoes? Not really, you have more than one pair of shoes because different shoes are suited to different purposes, and the same thing applies to cameras.

I have a good digital camera because it is convenient and great for shooting action shots. I have a couple 35mm film cameras because film still makes better images than digital, and having 2 cameras allows me to shoot 2 different kinds of film at the same time. I use the large format camera because it is fun, and I like to be able to make contact prints.

I'm not really a professional photographer. Most "pros" don't make that much money. I have published some photographs in travel guides, and I've won prizes in competitions, but for me it's still something which I do for fun.

Do you have to be a professional eater to buy more than one big mac meal? No. You just have to be a greedy consumer.
