Taking pics.

Family reunion yesterday. Some could not make it so only had about 25 here.
Anyway. One daughter in law brought me a present. Cameras, lens, adapters the works. Have to read the 4 manuals that came with them before I can attempt pics!!

Not a problem Hal best at your age not to stress out type of thing there I suggest so still happy here to do the swap thing as such .

Better get down to some serious reading before they become obsolete.

Having said that still have a camera given as apresent from work some, at least 25 years ago, takes film rolls, that have to be developed but the results are as good
as any latest camera.

Keep it in the car and use it when I see something worth recording.

No doubt eventually the film rolls will become unobtainable the shop that can develop them had to send to America for spare parts so the writing may be on the wall.


Maybe we can look forward to some good films, you certainly have plenty of options in your locality and it is always interesting to see how the other half live.



Best of luck with sorting them out.


Regards.

Looks like a really nice setup Hal.

They look like SLR's or the newer type of 'Compact' camera, to me.

No film I would have thought - images go onto a SD or Micro SD card. I would buy yourself a couple of 64 gig cards and have a play.

You can download all the photos onto your computer via a USB cable - look at them, to your hearts desire - then get rid of the ones you don't want by simple 'deleting' them, then keep the rest.

You can also make 'Folders' in your computer/laptop to hold the photos and sub-folders from that, to keep all related photos together. In that way, when you are looking for a particular image, you should have a better idea of where to look.

All the very best.
