Easy for all you existing blogger but as a newbie it is tough getting into this blogging routine.
Filling in the background. From the Osborne, each change was a step up and forward. Today a computer at home, one at the office and an HP laptop to carry between the two and whilst away. Storage space that wasn't even dreamt of in the Osborne days. I've lost track but I think that between the 3 machine I must have about 1500 Gb. (I know a couple of photographers who have more than double that!)
One of my original 35mm cameras (Nikon F - made in 1969) still sitting in my cupboard and it still works. Not that I have bought a roll of film in 5 or 6 years.
Totally digital these days.
When photographing birds it is wonderful to be able to rattle of 30 or 40 shots knowing that there is no extra cost in doing so. Back in film days there was no way I would have used a whole roll on one bird. The 1.5x factor on each lens is great for birds and wildlife as well.
On a recent trip to Antarctica I took nearly 9000 images, deleted about 2500 whilst there and have now edited the remaining 6500 down to just over 500. I shudder to think of trying to do that with film.
