I could not see what picture you liked because your link was to the album. 
You have to click on each picture until you get the largest version. Then 
you have a correct link for that picture. Or you can click the permalink

It's my mother-in-law and she is a small problem regarding photographing. She 
hates being taken photos of. I either need good tips for how to persuade her or 
I have to find someone else.

My idea is her lying on green grass with a red sweater, sun glasses and a 
cigarette, but she refuses.

Program A which I had for ages. It finally bit the dust on a trip to
US when a dolfin in San Diego splashed a large amount of salt water
over me. So I bought a MZ-5 which was used until *istDS came around.
I found *istD to be too expensive for what you get, but my *istDS was
more affordable. I am still using my *istDS from time to time, but
not much. Since then I have had a K10D for three years and a K-7 for
three weeks.

Regarding lenses, I think I have a nice collection. My DA*16-50 is
much used, but I have the 15, 21, 35 and 77 Limiteds and maybe my
DA21/3.2 is my most used lens. Most of my older lenses was sold. I
sold my FA*28-70/2.8 and don't regret it too much. I am thinking of
selling my FA*80-200/2.8, but the new DA*60-250/4 is to expensive so
I suppose I keep my 80-200.


Welcome. My first SLR was also a Praktica before I discovered Pentax.

 No, I think Mr. Clarkson hates motorcycles so I am not The Stig. He
 would probably sent me home again when he found out. But I love cars
 and especially Formula 1. Have been on 6 races and are going to the
 seventh in Belgium later this month.

  I think you have the best my camera died story I've heard in a
  while. Think about it, after surviving in Norway for years, it got
  killed by a dolphin in San Diego... What are the odds!?
 
  And what were you doing in San Diego, anyway?  : -)

 Taking pictures of dolphins?

- Original Message - 
From: SV Hovland p...@heime.org

Subject: Well, hello


Instead of a test mail as my first mail here, I tought I could introduce 
myself.


I am living in Sandnes, Norway. Sandnes is a small town with 60.000 
citizens and in an area around Stavanger with nearly 250.000 citizens. Its 
on the west coast of Norway. I am 45 years old and don't have kids. In 
addition to take photographs, I like driving around on my BMW K1100RS 
motorcycle.


I started with SLRs when I was in the primary school and bought my first 
SLR when I was in the army. It was an east German Practica ( 
http://www.praktica-users.com/cams/bfirst/b200.html ), which lasted only a 
few weeks in the cold :-) My second camera was a Pentax Program A which I 
had for ages. It finally bit the dust on a trip to US when a dolfin in San 
Diego splashed a large amount of salt water over me. So I bought a MZ-5 
which was used until *istDS came around. I found *istD to be too expensive 
for what you get, but my *istDS was more affordable. I am still using my 
*istDS from time to time, but not much. Since then I have had a K10D for 
three years and a K-7 for three weeks.


Regarding lenses, I think I have a nice collection. My DA*16-50 is much 
used, but I have the 15, 21, 35 and 77 Limiteds and maybe my DA21/3.2 is 
my most used lens. Most of my older lenses was sold. I sold my 
FA*28-70/2.8 and don't regret it too much. I am thinking of selling my 
FA*80-200/2.8, but the new DA*60-250/4 is to expensive so I suppose I keep 
my 80-200.

I could not see what picture you liked because your link was to the album. You 
have to click on each picture until you get the largest version. Then you have 
a correct link for that picture. Or you can click the permalink below each
