# :) This was me about a year ago
That
I just noticed my 20D box isn't on there, as are three five of my newer lenses ;)

Also, you need more Ixii
Canon Ixus

# Dude
Why do you need three of them?

# Why do you need 2x 5D ii?
Lordy, I had to sell some organs just to buy one (but I loves it)

# I guess so he doesn't have to switch lenses so often
or for backup

It's why I kept my 350D

# I kept my 350D too! (for the same reason)
although I don't think I've used it more than twice since the 5D arrived (I keep switching the lens anyway because I'm in love with the 5D, and the 350D is like an ex who just got a bit fat and boring).

Sometimes, at night, I think I hear it crying.

# Haha
I used my 350 about two weeks ago. Hadn't used it for a year.

# I'm just checking your Flickr page
*stalks*

Good stuff there - I particularly like the architectural shots. I'm naff at that sort of thing (coz I hate buildings and people and things that aren't animals. Or lighthouses. I seem to like lighthouses)

# Ta!
I seem to have collected have many lighthouses by now

# Yipes!
I bet Freud would have something to say about all this (if he wasn't quite so dead)

Can get a bit hairy swapping glass with these guys jumping up your leg

On a more basic level, always cool to have two cameras; you loose shots fucking around

# True true
So, you must make some £ from photography - I just did a little mental arithmetic on those cardboard boxes, and ran out of numbers.

# Long story
Basically, I had an Ixus I with a diving casing for it, so I held onto that when I got the Ixus 430, which was way better. Then the Ixus 70 came out, with much longer battery life (muy importante in cold water), so I bought that, along with a new underwater casing.

Oh, I also bought a 430 and a 70 for my girlfriend (both cameras and girlfriend not pictured), so we have five of these in the house. And then a powershot, some camphones, a konika minolta and another waterproof minolta cam ;)

I've just been buying cams for a lot of years now, and they never seems to break down, and I never sell any of them.

# But soooo beneath you SLR primary concerns, surely?
Fair enough if you get attached to them, guess I dont
(I helped save b3ta! Jahled Three shades of black, Tue 9 Jun 2009, 22:43, archived)
# I had them before I had my SLRs
I mainly use them for when I go bicycling/diving/sit in a rollercoaster etc.

Plus, the macro on the 70 is pretty good, actually.
etc.
