Fellow R Shooters:
Just a little note to introduce myself. My name is John, I have lived in
Philadelphia all of my life. I work for the philadelphia police dept as a
photographer supervisor. We do prisoner processing, some of the public event
stuff and we handle the still photography for graduations and promotions. We
are responsible for developing all of the film that police shoot during
investigations, that is whats left of it. On the job we use Nikon digital
and film cameras and every once in a while a medium or large fromat.
Personally I shoot everything from 35mm to 8x10. I do most of my work in
35mm with Leica M and R cameras. I have been at this hobby/profession for about
40 years. rvrn though I love M cameras for their simplicity . I find myself
more attracted to the R cameras there is jsut something about looking through
an incredible peice of glass and composing on the ground glass. I have done
over 600 weddings, a lot of portraits. still lifes, and scenics. But, what I
enjoy the most is going to carnivals and public events. Just taking photos of
people having fun.
I am finally ready to give digital a try,( personally i dont think it
will last, LOL) I am thinking of getting one of the new Canon Rebel XSi nad an
adapter and using it with sof this Lieca glass I already own. are there more
than one kind or brand of adapter out there.
Thanks
John
