Knowing a quite a bit about Yom Kippur and a bit about photography, I can assure that you are by no means in the clear my son. For a full and guilt free forgiveness you must first make the arduous cross country pilgrimage to B&H Photo the Mecca of Photography where you will bare your soul to Clerics trained, expert and seasoned in the sins of all manner of technology and who themselves have been tested a time or two. They will listen with sympathy, gravitas and furrowed brow to your confession and advise you as to the required penance.

NOTE: Like all things worthwhile in life, a "full and guilt free forgiveness" may come at a cost. Much may depend on how much room you have in your suitcase and your credit limit.

All said with a big tongue in cheek. Enjoy all that you have and accept my best wishes to you and yours and all my fellow members celebrating this time of year for a Happy, Healthy, Sweet, Prosperous and Joyous New Year.

Why stop? Get a lens conveter for your Canon glass, and take pictures of the raising of your Succos booth. Why stop there, go all the way and acquire a Sony A9? Full Frame, fast everthing, including focus, in body stabilization like Pentax, only better, a world of glass to use with an adaptor, plus native lenses.

My school always taught, to cure carnal weakness, to over indulge, to go full bore into whatever you desire. This therapy didn't always work, but it sure reduced Guilt, cannot be a bad thing. BTW, the 6000 is a bargain right now, a very capable sweetie.

I am a committed Christian that loves taking pictures. I want to somehow get God/Jesus involved with my photography. I want to shoot pictures that have a single Christian theme such as God's love, crosses, Christian road signs, God's mercy, God's power, etc. I don't want to shoot flowers, animals, plants. Any ideas with examples would be much appreciated. Blessings: Bob Example: For years I was heavily involved with the Christian Motorcyclist Association. Christian bikers wear colorful colors on the back of their jackets of their various Christian clubs and are very photogenic with the motorcycles. At that time I was not into photography. I went to hundreds of biker rallies each year spreading the Gospel and could have taken some great pictures of say a Hell's Angel with his arms around a Christian biker praying together. I want to maybe even print a book with some inspiring pictures that glorify our Lord/God

JTA - Yisrael Kristal, a Holocaust survivor from Haifa who was recognized by Guinness World Records as the oldest man in the world, has died, a month before his 114th birthday.

Haaretz reported that Kristal died Friday.

Born on September 15, 1903, in the town of Zarnow, Poland, Kristal moved to Lodz in 1920 to work in his family's candy business. He continued operating the business after the Nazis forced the city's Jews into a ghetto, where Kristal's two children died. In 1944, he was deported to Auschwitz, where his wife, whom he had married at 25, was killed.

In 1950, he moved to Haifa with his second wife and their son, working again as a confectioner. In addition to his son and daughter, Kristal has numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

Guinness recognized him as the world's oldest living man in 2016. When asked at the time what his secret was to long life, Kristal said: "I don't know the secret for long life. I believe that everything is determined from above and we shall never know the reasons why. There have been smarter, stronger and better-looking men than me who are no longer alive. All that is left for us to do is to keep on working as hard as we can and rebuild what is lost."

Last year, when he turned 113, about 100 family members celebrated his bar mitzvah, a century after he missed it due to the upheavals of World War I.

I have an Canon T70 camera / 35 mm. Bought it back in 85.. and buried it in a trunk for the past 20 yrs...
Should I keep it or just get rid of it?? its in good shape but batteries is stuck / corroded inside. Battery cover
is now broken.. The lenses I have for it ($$$) I might be able to use on another canon camera with an adapter
(if I wish to buy another canon camera).

so just asking what to do.. Sometimes I think the iPhone or other phones we have is enough to get a decent pic.


please advise ...

tks..
