The death of a long gone friend....

Greetings,

Today is a day, that might go down in the history books of the Alchemist's family, as a day when their long time friend departed a friendly world, to the cruel junk yard.

'Tis the day, when my beloved Pentax A3000, departed me forever.
The death was un-expected. though it had been known that he had been suffering from chronic shutter problems, due to which over exposure often took place.

sensing the danger, i took him to my neighbourhood friendly repai shop.

i saw as he opened up my camera, and to my horror.. the tumor.... the shutter had broken off completely and had damaged his brain ( the circuitry.

H e had suffered a slow degrading death, as his plight could not have been revealed.

He died
magnificently, perched on the top of his trusty tripod, and silently bearing the weight of my Olympus 80-200.

his demise marks the death of a family heirloom, that has been passed down from 3 generations.

He is grieved by his four lenses, which were as close to him as his tripod, and of course not to mention the Alchemist family, who are so shocked by this sudden demise, that they cant bear to see the lenses and the tripod go alone.

Hence, they with all humility are asking the felon photographers, at hypography on what camera, would suit the lenses so well that the absence of the A3000 will not be felt.

May the body rest in peace....

Regards
TBA

    Just a note that the lenses are not the screw on type, but the other lock on type .

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.
