You'd be surprised at the sick words that come out of my mouth.




I'm sure it's the same for your mum too, only more surprising because she looks so nice and harmless. It would be a blast (not to mention extremely educational from a photographic perspective) to watch her at work!

Also Holly, I must pick you up on a comment you made a little while back, about how you never light anything and just have your assistants do it for you...does that include the bong/hash pipe too?

Does your mum still shoot on Nikon by the way? My guess is yes, because I know Luke does, and buying the same brand camera seems like the kind of thing he would do to ingratiate himself with your folks...

I only ask because I'm about ready to splurge on a pro-end DSLR, and with two exceptions, most of the pros I know in the UK are pointing me at the Canon 20d (or better, with L glass), but I'm a bit of a contrarian (Mac user...that sort of thing!) so I'm feeling the pull of the Nikon for some reason. I guess I don't like to do things the easy way...

Now, tell us more about the lentils...as a recovering vegetarian, I know the flatulatory consequences of those little buggers is quasi-lethal... ...and then some!!!




Well when we shot film we shot exclusively Nikon for all those years. But now that we've switched over to digital we shoot with a Canon 1DS Mark II-- Hustler required that if we go digital we had to shoot with the 16 megapixel camera. But we shoot on a Mac platform, and then our RAW images are processed into PC-friendly TIFF files and JPEGS.




Thanks for the insight...maybe I should go with the flow (and everyone else's advice) and stick with Canon!
