Heh! A couple weeks ago a friend noticed that I had more than just a couple of cameras, and asked how many. Even counting the dead ones, the freebie 35mms and the old polaroids it was something like 24 bodies. Mind you, I use less than half a dozen of them on a regular basis. If experience holds, this should lead to a thread with people enumerating each of their cameras, with several side discussions on particular models, culminating in a series of puns, probably about cormorants. -- Larry Colen [email protected] sent from i4est -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
