It must be nice to have all those "toys" to play with! Oh, sorry, we weren't supposed to look!
Greetings from British Columbia.

Thanks Lelaina for informing of the "rebirth" of PXL.
BeSea,
Yes, here we can trade-in our lenses or cameras for new or used ones.
Right now the "hot" items are the old but top quality European lenses produced by famous makers such as Hasselblad, Leica, Carl Zeiss, Alpa, Angenieux, etc, because with an adaptor they fit perfectly on our digital DSLR and produce superb images with absolutely true color rendition.
Right now I have a Hasselblad and a Mamiya 645, (both Medium Format), on my Nikon DSLR. Believe you me, once you've seen the images these lenses can produce on a digital DSLR, you wouldn't touch a Nikon or Canon lens any more.
And, mm for mm and f stop for f stop, they are cheaper than the Nikon DX lenses!
The only drawback of course is that you have to switch to manual. But no big deal as I am not into sports photography.

Hurray!! my favorite place is back. It just hasn't been the same. Even though I am not a record breaking contributor I loved seeing all the art work you guys displayed.
Great to see you back
Thanks.
I stopped stopping by after a couple of months when PXL closed. It was thanks to Lelaina who messaged me today about PXL coming back to life again.
BTW, is it necessary to have the make of camera published with the entry? After a while you get to know who owns what camera.
Nice to be back.
Great to see you back! (I agree with you about the camera, speaking as someone who has a more unique brand)
...."someone who has a more unique brand"
So you own a Kiev 2mp Digital?
LOL... not quite THAT unique
Welcome back!
Thanks Captain.
Reporting for duty.

Hi Patty,
