    I'm still undecided about the mini note. Labas-pasok siya sa backpack ko. Argh!

    will you have time with it? what is the main purpose of bringing it?
    what will happen if you don't bring it?

    can you live without it for this trip? if yes, don't bring it :-)

    I noticed you have "film" on your list. Are you bringing a film camera?

    I am also itching to start using my film cameras again.

    hi Joey,

    yes, I have to...coz my Kodak is down for the count, my Olympus is on exile..and so I have only my Fujifilm (which has the torn battery cover).

    Oh dear, that reminds me, I have to download and read the manual for it *gasp* tonight!!!!

    or, maybe I should ask Sir B na lang how to use the Nikon F70...

    Your Fujifilm should be easy to use. And, yes, highly advisable to get a crash course from Hugz re your Nikon F70. Then you can truly enjoy shooting with it. Have fun.

    my dad bought that Nikon F70 around the year of the HK handover back to China I think...yep, he bought it in HK...

    as for me...after I learned the variable setting...due to the hectic sked...di ko na rin nabasa lahat ang manual..hehehe...

    yep..kapa-kapa...ewan anong labas..

    am hoping its true though that its not that expensive to have the negatives converted into images which can be put on cd...may negatives pa ako, at may mga jpegs (I think).

    Baka this will teach me the discipline of taking care of my pictures :-)

    Oh yes. In fact, I am back to shooting film again. I just have the film processed and a CD jpg files of the images. Di pa aksayado sa mga shots.

    With the CD, may file ka na instantly.

    btw, make sure you tell them to make it a big file for you. At least, 2.5 MB to 4 MB size per photo.
