At least you did not hurt yourself when you tripped.i will still read your blog even without photos.... But I do understand how you must feel about this...hugs.<br />JenniJennihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04933243243697227084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9052855468880132303.post-24835159414672106202012-08-11T17:05:19.544+02:002012-08-11T17:05:19.544+02:00Yes, but this is your blog! Your camera was very ...Yes, but this is your blog! Your camera was very good at bead photos, macro flower pics and photos of black cats in in motion. It is very difficult to get good pics of black cats. Guess how I know. Don't be fooled by all those pixels only.Many other things are important for jewellery photography. I think it would be fine if you could find a used camera. It is easier to find a camera for beautiful landscape shots than one that is suitable for a bead blogger. You are interested in photography, and I think you could do with a cheap good quality older camera til you have found the right one for you. Then you can buy the camera of your dreams when it is on sale. BTW many professional camera stores sell used cameras with warranty. I''m sure your followers will not leave your blog when you are looking for a new camera.

Especially now that there's so much to take photos off (of cause today's a sunny beautiful day after days of rain and grey skies!). I have to fight the impulse to grab the camera and take a pic all the time. <br /><br />I'm going to try and steal/borrow my sis' camera at times. Don't think she'll be thrilled about it, considering how much she hates it when I constantly borrowed her battery charger. On the other hand she isn't home today... nudge,nudge, wink, wink. You know what I mean.<br /><br />By the way -- how ironic that I just recently bought a new charger and batteries for the camera. <br /><br />One positive thing is that I've learned a new word: bridge camera (in swedish: bridgekamera). That's what my camera is/was, a camera inbetween the point-and-shoot and the SLR. It also means the kind of camera I'm after is a bit more expensive than a point-and-shoot, but a point-and-shoot isn't an option for me. In that case I rather buy a new mobile (cell phone) with camera. But having a word for it will make it easier for me to find the right cameras.<br /><br />I did look around for used ones halfheartedly, but will try and comb Blocket etc for cheap ones. Saw one for 500 SEK. There was a whole "z family" and I just found a z5 too: more expensive but then it also had more pixels -- seven years ago that was a big thing. Will only buy if it's really cheap as I'm a bit hesitative about buying used cameras from strangers. Otherwise I'll try to think of some way to raise the moolah needed to buy a new bridge camera. Does mean a lot of time spent comparing brands and models as well as time to earn the money needed. Oh, I don't want to be without a camera.<br /><br />Ever since I damaged the lens, I've dreamt about a new camera -- but that dream including having my trusted Z3 left as a back-up! Is there some sort of punishing karma out there doing this to me? First Sötis and now this, I think something less than positive about something and it's gone...<br /><br />(Milka, as you can see, you're not the only one who writes essay-length comments. *lol*)Manekihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13362626785474144154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9052855468880132303.post-12268792757166875552012-08-11T09:45:03.126+02:002012-08-11T09:45:03.126+02:00What a disaster. But it could be worse, you could ...What a disaster. But it could be worse, you could have hurt yourself or Snuttis. I'm glad that you two are ok, but, of course, you need a camera. I'll be reading your posts even without pics. I'm sure that you have lots of wonderful pics on your computer to show us. The problem is that you want to take bead related pics, and want to show your new beads and what you are doing with them. If you cannot afford a new camera, and liked your old one, you could try and buy a used Z3. If it is not possible, you can buy another brand. People buy new things without really needing them, and and it is possible to get a very good rather new used camera very cheaply. I bought a good camera at a sale.You should read tests and most important of all, what ordinary users on your skill level say about their cameras. Maybe you can find a serious shop selling used cameras. We know that you are on a tight budget as many of us these days. You can't just rush to the mall and buy a new camera today. I'm sure you'll be able to solve this problem. I'm eagerly waiting for Meowy Monday! Sorry for writing a novel rather than a comment, but I really feel sorry for you.

I can understand how it feels like a friend -- I feel the same way about my laptop. <br /><br />My only thought is that you could look for a used one just like it. It might be less expensive than a new one, and you'd have a camera you were familiar with.Sarah Sequinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08221653054315631804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9052855468880132303.post-49251022764655950922012-08-10T20:40:52.104+02:002012-08-10T20:40:52.104+02:00Oh sweetie, I'm sooo sorry.

I hope you will take this time to explore the brands out there, and find one that will be a suitable replacement. I will still look forward to your posts, even without pics. :(Shirleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17422842701701029242noreply@blogger.com
