    Hi Chris, thanks for the link :)

    As much as we all have the desire for new toys, sometimes it can be a fun artistic challenge to go without them, to limit what you use.

    Hell, I still take out my old Pentax KX camera – often the photos aren’t as good as I get when the camera takes care of everything for me, but I do find it useful in a ‘getting back to basics’ sort of way.

    Also bear in mind – many, perhaps most of us, have a limited budget – either by circumstance, prioritisations, or (as in my case) your beloved ‘remind’ing you that you’ve got a wedding to save for :)

    Andrew

    Good cos i’ve got loads.
    it breaks into 2 areas though.
    what is fun, such as my suction camera mount and 3d equipment, and what will expand my field such as the tripod and different lenses.

    I work a needs must basis. And whatever it is, I must need it!
