truckloads of awesomeness!! and yes, i made it to the end and will re-read this multiple times..

bridezilla --

people.. what can i say? that's why i enjoy shooting out in the middle of nowhere, so bridezilla makes perfect sense

i think that's pretty awesome that Molly has used a 10mp camera. I've used a pocket Kodak camera my parents bought me eons ago and i think it was 10 mp, and on the pc, it had some amazing clarity and crispness for what it was (I'll have to look up the model)

I had inquired about a T6i this last week but didn't get much feedback from the owner, so I dropped the conversation, so I thoroughly appreciate the info on renting. I wasn't aware of that and that's ideal cause I go overboard on researching chit to the point of pissing myself off before I buy something..

Ansel Adams... I've got a calendar of his hanging in the kitchen. Loved his photos when I was a pre-teen and had my parents buy me a book back in the 80's that went into insane details of his methods. It was like a science book, but had the answers to everything for film cameras back then in regards to shooting outside.

Thank you again for the information (You too Kurt) and I'll keep you updated.
Danke schoen
