Unless it's really really cheap, I'd skip it. Your D40 is more advanced than the D2H.
Digital has come along a long way since then.

Neat, I've added you on Flickr (mine's a great mess) and I'll probably follow your blog too.

Keep posting.

Blog is here for me.

On a side note, I love finding cheap cameras for friends, and my chemicals and film developing stuff come today, woohoo.

A couple of random shots with my new Lensbaby Composer.

This looks like a toy town.

Sorry for the upset stomachs.

And a few more with my standard setup. 40D and 70-200 f/2.8L IS

.Fierce's Photostream

how do i post photos instead of just URL's??

**VertigoJ** · 04-24-2009 06:46 AM

-Go to the photo you want on Flickr and click on the "All sizes" button.
-If you scroll down, there will be some code to copy, and just a straight link to the photo to copy.
-Copy that link, come back here and click the "Photo" button on your post.
- It asks you to put in a link and you just paste in the link from your photo.

Or, if you know BBcode just copy the link and put the [IMG] tags on yourself. PM me if you need any more help.

Bradley, neat stuff!

This might already be here but after looking through the entire thread and didn't see anything.

I am looking for a digital SLR but I can only spend like $300. I have been searching Ebay and Craigslist for weeks and i have found nothing. Can someone point me in the right direction?
Thank You

From this past week....

**lexx** · 04-26-2009 11:32 AM

VertigoJ - half because of your shots I broke away from shooting just b&w this weekend, looking forward to getting the reala back.

nokeboarder - the middle one is awesome. simple and effective.

getitrightsteve, jlmitch - ha, thanks. On my blog control page VertigoJ comes up as my only "follower" because he has a blogspot account too. I'm also embarrassingly self-deprecating and I'm not sure how I feel about the thought people actually do read my pages.

Anyway, no photos right now but on the topic of blogs and stuff. Here are a few useful links I find handy.

lighting - Strobist

"what camera should I buy" - KenRockwell.com (I find him a bit of an ass, I don't know why I read his site, but I do.)

inspiration - Onexposure - 1x.com - In pursuit of the sublime (I found this through Ken rockwell's site and I hate him for it because every I go there the photos blow me away and I one day want to take a photo 1 tenth good enough to be on this site)

documentary - MJR (I think I do take pictures good enough for this site

)

ages ago someone posted this site with a photo story about husky dog racing. I'd been checking it out once a week for ages and really worth a look so I thought I'd remind people - The Big Picture - Boston.com

I want this girl to be my friend so she can take slightly out of focus pictures of me on Paris Metro trains. One day - Charlotte Gonzalez’s photoblog

I don't know how old this woman is, but she lives in the same city as me and I'm in love with her photos. There is a possibility she'll be my friend in real life, but how to approach without coming across as a total loon? Flickr: thegreyitbuilds' Photostream

oh yeah, and holly shit if you develop your own film use this site!

it has times for nearly every film and developer combination possible

I was sorting through some old files and I found this -

One of the first films I developed after years of being out of practice.

That site is amazing, thanks for posting it.
