the thinker

Dan is having a think.  He’s thinking about his new camera.  He came back from India asking if we’d help him choose a camera (yeessssss!!!).

He’s never shown much interest in photography before, but the Yoga company he now works for has schools and retreats in various countries and he will need to start taking photos for publicity and marketing purposes.  As he’ll be travelling a lot it needs to be lightweight as well as up to the job. 

He plays around with Anniemay’s Olympus EM-1 and a couple of my lenses and like Prince Charming with Cinderella’s slipper, declares that a camera like this will be a perfect fit.  Anniemay and I smile to each other like camera grandparents.

As it happens Olympus have a cashback offer on at the moment and - even better - our favourite camera shop in Watford knock an additional £100 off the price over the Bank Holiday.  

A quick flash of the credit card and the camera is on its way.  Perhaps today.
