There was a question the other day about camera straps and also an observation in another post about the way some of us carry our cameras. I for one have been guilty of carrying my camera with the neck strap just dangling just off the ground or maybe wound round my wrist. Like others here I just hate the manufacturer's strap around my neck. Anyway, I've ended up buying an Op/Tech USA wrist strap and used it for the first time today - having discarded the neck strap - and what a joy it is to use. It's really comfortable and the camera stays just where I want it - in my hand. And best of all, it was fantastic value, just over £7.

Found a roll of black & white 35mm film in the back of the refrigerator I used to use for film and processing chemicals. It is now used for a temperature controlled environment to store my back up CDs and DVDs.
It had been expired for a few months but I decided to shoot it up. I still had a 35mm film camera that would take my EOS lenses. Had to buy a battery for it and went out to shoot up the roll.
I've been shooting digital since the Sony Mavica and totally digital since just after the first Canons came out.
It was a total shock to see how lazy I've let myself become. After every shot, I kept looking down at the back of the camera to see if I'd captured the image I wanted.
It was an eye-opening experience. I had to slow down - think about each shot and all the variables that go into getting a correct exposure and the best composition.
In the process of shooting the 36 exposures, it became fun again.
I don't have the chemicals to do my own processing, so I have to send the roll off and wait. I do so with great anticipation - just like in th e"good old days".
I'm not ready to give up my 5Ds, but I'm going to start shooting a roll of film one in a while to get myself back in the groove.
The challenge - get out your film camera and shoot a roll. See if you've become lazy also.
