I personally cannot understand why anyone would want a 110 camera. The image quality of 110 was useless and with so many decent compact digitals around (see Galoot's post about Pentax Optio i10 for £34.95), what is the point? Why is it more fun?

Regards
David
can anybody point me in the direction of the post by Galoot...have tried searching but can't find it

May I make a recomendation, I have been shooting exclusively film for about 3 months and I have used many colour films and I have observed that the best colour film to use for all situations is for me, agfaphoto vista 100,200 and 400. They have very good versatility and are very well saturated but in a really nice soft way, and have very low grain at all asa's (100, 200 and 400)
and for a pound at poundland you can buy a roll of 200 vista 36 exposure

How many shutter actuations on that boy? Has it ever seen a roll of film?
Would it be useful for street photography....

I have one of these and have used it manually with a K10D and Samsung GX20 with no problems.I eventually even figured out how to use the different modes apart from M

If he wants you to take the photos then he must let you use your camera which you are familiar with.
Anything else and I fear you may end up falling out big time.
Show him this thread.

of course Photoplus are specifically for Canon and I think there's one for Nikon.

In defence of wedding photographers in general. You can't blame an established wedding photographer for not wanting to book half a days work this far in advance during peak season.

If he/she were to book that half day, then tomorrow they could well have to turn down a full days work for that same day.

Now how many self employed people during their peak work period would take on half a days work, at the expense of a full days work?
Well said that man it makes a change for some other trade to be getting the flak rather than Plumbers
...and lawyers....and estate agents...and of course security guards...

Hi all,

My Son and fiancée are getting married in July and are having difficulty finding a Photographer to take photos. Those that they have contacted so far want to shoot the entire day, following them about everywhere when all they want is photos of the ceremony and some of the reception.

I'm sorry but these photographers don't deserve your(son and fiancee) business. Glad they've not been employed.
For goodness sake it is the couple who decide what pictures they want....no wonder people want the job doing on the cheap if they some would be "artist" trying to to do this to them...sorry rant over and I hope the happy couple have a great day and a greater life together

Surely as it's by Ricoh who own Pentax then it must be allowed...
