I know. Anyone know a good place to sell them? The guy bought the storage locker for $500...so he's making money either way. I'm just trying to get a cut.

I see stuff on ebay all the time. Could post it on amazon as well under the used gear sections. Those would be my guess.

fredmiranda.com. It costs something like nine bucks to register for selling, but there are no other fees, it is a heavily trafficked web site for gear and a lot of high-end stuff gets sold there.

Over the last few weeks I've finally found some time to try out the new Nikon D800. Whoo hoo! Here are a few shots from up around Mammoth Lakes:

So I guess you're liking working with film then? Do you shoot black & white negatives? I have been keeping some of my film bodies around thinking I might enjoy shooting film again sometime. It's just never happened. Back in the day I did my own processing and printing. I've since donated all my darkroom gear to my kid's school, and put my film cameras on the shelf. Something about the work flow hassel does not appeal anymore. I've gotten too used to the instant gratification of digital. Instead I am trying to learn the nuances of processing raw digital images with NX2 Capture and Photoshop.

What about the rest of you guys? What happened to all our photographers?

yup, black and white. i started with tri-x 400 until Freestyle in Hollywood told me bout Arista Premium, which is basically Tri-x rebranded. costs half as much too. i don't see the processing as a hassle or anything, it's kinda rewarding to me. also having to wait before seeing my shots has helped in the editing process too. with digital you look at the review right away and tend to decide whether or not a pic is a keeper before really analyzing it. actually i turned off the review on my M8 because of that.
