Well years ago before the digital revolution, I had a Olympus SLR with a variety of lenses,from a 70-210 zoom..a 7 element doubler..A 24m wide angle..Anyway two years ago I sold the lot and have been using a Olympus sure shot which is the size of a mobile phone..However after seeing all your awesome photos it's got me back into photography..Any excuse to buy a new camera eh !...So yesterday I bought a Canon SLR...And I'am glad it's easy to use as when I saw all the buttons I started to panic.. Set it in auto and away we go...Love the zoom on it...So all going well I'll put my pics on my October trip..Keep on snapping folks...Say Cheese...

What is everyone else going to buy for their next trip?

We were going to get a new camera, we are not into photography as such but our old Sony point and shoot isn't very good. But thhien hubby said we will just use our phones to take pictures, his phone has a very good camera so we are saving the money.
Just bought a load of new cases in the clearance sale, bright orange obviously isn't a popular colour but they are great qua!ity at a really great price so they will do thejob.

Now I'm looking at buying a new camera
Looking for a cheap 4/3 system one, hubby thinks I've lost the plot
