cameras and me..

..we go way back.
my first camera was a plain film camera. It wasn't even really mine but grew to become mine as everyone else progress to being better equip and left me with that piece of plastic. honestly that black piece of plastic and me go way back. i mean look at her all in her pride and glory. i didn't pay for her but i would say she served me well.

then came my for fun camera i bought at a thrift shop. tried and tested only twice and the second time sees a roll of undeveloped film sitting on my table till today. meet mr 4 eyes and despite it all i seem to think he was a good buy anyhow.


then there was old missy canon. the old canon also served me well. i still have her old compact flash card sitting around somewhere. old and out of style i decided to invest in a camera of my own. a new breed. one that reviews would boast about... and i did.


the screen was wide and the functions seemed to cater for my every need. a point and shoot camera. simple, sleek and very much mine. Blacky and i went around taking everything and anything... at least we tried.

sigh.

it's such a let down when you realize you spent all that money and your beloved camera acts like shit towards you. he's stopped reading my SD cards a few days ago. i can't find his wire so now i can't even transfer the damn photos stuck in the internal memory. at night he insists i turn the flash on or he'd mess up so i can never get the nice orange night glow.

i feel so handicap without a camera.
noki and me can't do much. phone photos can only do so much for you.
i miss triger happy days.
