I have several vintage 35mm Olympus and Minolta camera bodies along with a number of lenses and flash units. All are in near mint condition. Can anyone suggest where I might sell these for a fair price.

Everything old is new again. Or to quote Solomon, "there is nothing new under the sun."

From down the road a bit, here's a shot through the living room window of Mt. Timpanogos to the East across Utah Lake.

Although I haven't used them, I know that our local Walgreen's processes film. I don't know about digitizing, but I'd be surprised if they didn't.

The walgreens around me no longer do in store processing, they send it out and the results are not good. Also, you don't get negatives back, just the cd.

Gotta love B H PhotoVideo. I just did some research on chat with them and I'd like some feedback from fellow 'hoggers on their recommendation. I have several heavy cameras including a mini SpeedGraphic, Linhof 617 pano, and some heavy 300mm f/4.5 and a 600mm reflex. When I use my cheap plastic tripods the head sags so I can't get a level horizon and when I adjust left/right/up/down the movement in the head binds and is jerky. Also, there is a lot of "slop" between the camera and the head making framing imprecise. The $1000 Novoflex and Slik were too much for my budget so the chat technician at B&H recommended the Sirui W-1204 coupled with a Manfrotto XPRO. I would appreciate feedback as to whether anybody has any negative experience with these and based on your experience will I get smooth framing movement and solid lock down. If you have other suggestions in the $300 - $400 package range (less if the product fits my desires) please share your opinions with me. Thanks.

Is it me or is the surface of the surface of the water on top, not parallel to the horizontal parts of the frame? Just asking....
I looked at the water fall at the right which appears to be straight ahead of the camera. That falling water seems to be straight up and down to me, I think the image is level.

I'm planning a Yellowstone trip this winter and I am torn between picking up a 300mm APO f/2.8 or 400mm APO f/4.5. Longer reach vs "faster" lens. Opinions?

I need to do some basic accounting, journals, trial balance, balance sheet, income statement. I don't want to pay a subscription. Many years ago I used both QB and Peachtree, they do just what I want. I was surfing on the Bay and I see some available, sometimes with the caveat that there is no guarantee that the license will work. Based on the general experience of the group, is there any reason to not buy a 20 year old version of either of these? After all, debits and credits haven't changed in hundreds of years. I appreciate all opinions.
