We were just talking about that the other day, how now everybody is a photographer. Not that many years ago, a few people carried cameras and got great shots, now anybody with a cell phone gets them every day.

I use to work for Kodak in Windsor,Co. There now a skeleton of what they use to be. I remember those small compact cameras that you dropped in a film cartridge and when done you had to take it to the camera store to get it developed so you could see what you had. Now its instant like you said. We've come along way

My wife still has and enjoys her Canon camera, it is a very nice one she got last year with a long distance lens attachment that looks like a blunderbuss. She takes excellent photos with it and can capture fast action at rodeos, etc. Yes, film was a big deal and she was always taking it for development. My mother still has boxes full of slide carousels at her place. Should put them on a disc or something, thousands of photos from 50's, 60's, 70's...summer vacations etc.

I think those big cameras are way cool but carrying one isnt what I care to do when Im on vacation or ect. So I guess the phone camera will do for now as my cell phone goes everywhere for now. Maybe someday when I float that river of retirement that camera along with the phone will fall into the river.

I figure a couple more years of cell phone and then off the mobile grid.

Probably a good idea RR. Everyone was just fine before all this tech stuff...right?...I think so.
