No I'm not making my own camera, but I am going back to 35mm. I was given an old 35mm K1000 SLR camera with the lenses that I will post pics of as soon as I can find it online :) Until the house gets built and I get my own dark room, I am going to take it to a 1 hour developer here in town and just have the film developed.
The Epson Perfection V500 Photo Scanner is at the very top of my list of MUST HAVES. It not only scans 35mm film, slides (all old and new), and pictures; It does so as the name implies.. Perfectly. After managing a photo lab for almost 2 years, I am more than aware of the problem that dust and scratches pose for film and old pictures. This machine CORRECTS all of those problems. Old faded pictures, fixed with the push of a button. I'm really excited to scan all the old family negatives and convert them all to digital. All saved neatly on a removable memory stick. How wonderfully easy it would be to share old family photo's and history in an updated digital format.
So for now my Canon Rebel T1i will have to wait, because for now I'm goin' oldschool!
