Everything Birma said!

Nice one Mike! My effort with a Dimage 7Hi.......

Nice one Valery. Remarkably bright boats considering the visible sky!

Congrats on your purchase :) I bought mine in about 1975 and have taken about 2000 rolls of 36-exposure film/slides. It's a shame that 'electronic' cameras have made it an unnecessary item. Or possibly that's a benefit. Maybe in another 50 years I could get something back for a still-functioning ant...

It was the end of 4 months traveling f...

No, but I wish we did. We came to England in 2004 after my wife said "Why don't you quit work and we'll go and live in England?"

On Ebay UK there are still a number of A57's for =< £250. If you don't need FF, then the A57 is probably better ( and newer) than an A580.

Thanks, Sury. I don't know why I sold the 7D.
