Digital Darkroom

History

Back in 1975 I had gone to Jamaica, the surrounding were gorgeous… I talked my mom into buying me a camera in the Hilton Hotel gift shop, it was a Kodak 110 pocket. I proceeded to take photos of the landscape, the sights, the peacocks… I got my first taste of shooting back then it was fun and I entered my photo class with Mr. Allen at Forest Lake High School. It wasn’t long before I out grew this small camera, next came my first SLR camera Minolta SRT-101, this is the camera I spent the next couple years getting to know… Thinking I knew alot about photography this was the time to do an upgrade, the Minolta XK, this was a work horse of a camera… Followed by the technology of the time camera the Minolta X-700 I shot a many rolls of film with this body. For a short time I had experimented with medium format system from Maymeia. Skip forward aprox. 15 years I had been out of photography for quite awhile… I got a Olympus C2020, followed by a C1000, then the E10, still not feeling this was the right combo The Canon digital rebel was next on my list, followed by the Canon 10D, 20D and now the 7D
