This whole camera business.

Fri Oct 8, 2004, 5:01 AM
I gots myself one of them problems.

I want to start taking photos again, with the whole analog bit. But my arms are not as strong as they used to and I'm having trouble keeping the camera up while fiddeling with the settings and chosing how to crop a scene.

I can think of two possible work arounds. One, Use a fucking tripod. But then I need to carry around the damn thing and can't really take photos from weird angles and take those fast shots. Or can I? I think I need to look around for a lightweight tripod.

Two, Find a good wall to lean against when using the camera. Hm. At first I thought this would limit my choice of perspective. But really, must I? Naa. My logic fails again! Drats!

Must camera quality and weight go hand in hand?
Maybe I need to find myself a good middle format camera that I can look into from above.

Please oh mighty deviant photography gods, help this poor fool.

I wish weight wasn't such a issue, it takes away a lot of creativity.
