After a year and a half, finally, I treat myself

In October 2006, when my photography kit got stolen the first time, I wrote about wanting the K10D(or GX-10).
I even bought a film pentax camera and several zoom and prime lenses, since they would be reusable. That got stolen again, but I stuck with the plan. Snatched another MZ-M off ebay, and just one lens.

But FINALLY, in January 2008, I went out and bought a Samsung GX-10. A year and a few months later it was still a great camera and I still wanted it so I could finally justify doing it.

Expect more pictures soon!


Literary bit of the day: “Anathem,” Neal Stephenson

Iphi’s cheapskate link of the day: buy supermarket brands

(uk centric)
http://www.supermarketownbrandguide.co.uk/intro.php

Test all the supermarket licensed products to see which ones are really good. Save money where it’s worth it smile
