Ooh, shiny shiny! I'm dreaming that Apple release the mythical Macbook Touch at their 14th October reveal (they won't - I'm pretty sure it's just a current range refresh).

A Canon scanner which type escapes me at the moment. It his negative ad slide capacity.

Canon 9950F, perhaps? I've got an older Epson 4990 - it's a flatbed with film capacity too, and has done a pretty good job of scanning my old slides and negs so far.

The printer is an HP 500. Does at least 24" wide prints.

That'll never fit on the desk, you know?
I'm looking at upgrading my old Epson printer to one of your HP's baby brothers - the HP 9180. It prints to A3, and gets pretty good raps around the forums.

Nice. The Dark Side. So, The new D3 and D300 nicely set off a little bomb in that space that others (like my poison, Canon) are seeking to match. I'm considering a 5DMkII at the moment, but the Aussie dollar may have me upgrade my nearing 6-year-old 10D ("The Professor") to a 50D instead.
"Fizzgig", however, is this:

He's a little half-frame camera - all-manual, no rangefinder (scale focus). I don't rightly know why I bought it (obviously it was very cheap), but, hey, it seemed like it might be fun, and can join the other cameras that have interested me for whatever reason:
OM1 - "Ginger"
EOS 10D - "The Professor"
Oly 770SW - "Flipper"
OM40 - "Thurston"
Oly c5050z - "Lovey"
Oly mju2 - "Gilligan"
Oly 35RC - "The Skipper"
Yashica 35GSN - "Mary Anne"
EOS 50E - "Professor Frink"
Voigtlander R3A - "Bender"
Yashica Mat 124 - "Bitey "
Polaroid 636 Closeup - "Leela"
They're all used in some form or another, except for the TLR for which I am having trouble finding anyone to process the film, even by mail, and for which even getting chemicals so that I can learn how to process at home is not easy. That's one of the problems of living in somewhere more "regional" compared to "Whatever-you-want-we've-got-it-Sydney".

It needs some work. She does a lot of floral photography. I do landscape and portraits.

If you felt like it, and had it online somewhere, I wouldn't be averse to looking at some of it for my own pleasure.
My tendency is towards people (casual/candid portraiture, almost exclusively family and friends), and objects (beach stuff, compositions of shapes), and my dogs...lots and lots of my dogs.
Right now, I'm about to have a shower (so, for those who subscribe to the webcam, I'm switching it on now.
).
Cheers,
