How many cameras do you have, Phil? I enjoy all that you produce with what seems like an array of choice. I wonder if you take one and shoot with it, or if you take them all and select one to shoot with based on the subject you encounter.

Whatever the case, you succeed in matching each camera's personality to the subject.

Cheers Doug. I think I'm right in saying that you and I do most of our shooting within a short range of where we live. As such, I'll go out to a destination because I've seen before the shot I want to make. Or I'll go to a place where I expect to see something I'm after. And so I'll take the camera I think will create the pic I'm looking for. Sometimes I haven't got a clue what to expect so I'll take "the lot", leave it in the car and go wander for half an hour and come back later for the right gear. Some other day I'll take the lot loaded on my back. The sort of day when I've been gone an hour say and then it starts to pour down.

Hey, ... great to have your input. All the best for '05 mate.
