This blog used to be about politics. Not so much anymore as I have worked through my fascination with that subject. It now seems appropriate that with a new president and the end of the Bush nightmare that I move on to new subjects that are more in line with my current interests. I may still occasionally express an opinion about political matters but for the most part I will be commenting on music, photography and personal observations. Thank you for reading.

Just a thought...

You know what would be cool?

An all manual digital slr for around $200-300. It doesn't have to be fancy. It can be fairly low resolution; three megapixels would be fine. There needs to be three versions, one each for old Nikon, Pentax and Canon manual focus lenses. It doesn't need to have an LCD screen or fancy menus, just a Compact Flash or SD card slot, a bright viewfinder, and a center weighted match needle meter.

Why?

Because creative focusing with an automatic point and shoot camera is just about pointless. To get that kind of focus control you have to invest in a thousand dollar D-SLR that you're going to be paranoid about breaking or losing. I want a digital that can take the place of my old K1000. Something that I can throw on the passenger seat of my car, or I can take with me as I walk around.

Plus, there are such great lenses floating around now for manual camera systems at great prices.
