Hello Scottie here; I have always enjoyed taking snapshot’s, but decided to buy a “real”
camera about 6 years ago. My first SLR was a second-hand Olympus OM10, after a year
or so with it I bought my current camera a Nikon F80.
I use the stock Nikor 28-80 lens, ancient Sigma 70-210 APO lens, a variety of filter’s,
and dedicated flashgun.
For snapshot’s I use an Olympus C160 Camedia digital compact or an old Olympus Trip
35 a camera which has something of a cult following - not surprising as it takes pin sharp
pictures.
Due to illness I have hardly taken any pictures for the past 2 years, but I am over the
worst and plan to concentrate on using slide film and scanning the slides onto the
computer.
I live in North Ayrshire the area has plenty of good scenery ‘harbours/marinas etc. many
photographer’s have no doubt seen photo’s of the’Pencil’ at Largs surely one of the most
photographed monument’s in the UK!.

Scottie, welcome to APUG the best photo forum anywhere. We are almost neighbours for I live just over the border in the Northumberland National Park on the east side of the country.

Hi Scottie

Sorry for the late hello. Have had my head elsewhere lately. I have a good friend who gets his slides scanned and prints on Inkjet. Have seen some lovely results. Look forward to seeing some of them local scenes of yours.

Regards

Stoo

Hello Scottie and welcome to Apug from way, way down south in Australia. If you've been away from photography due to illness I'm sure you're going to enjoy getting out and using up some film. Cheers.
