Show Notes
pride: showing off, bringing an exotic camera to a photo walk or camera show, etc. - the antidote: extending a hand to new photographers (as opposed to snarking “go Google it” in Facebook groups)
envy: camera envy - where does it get you? has it ever resulted in a good acquisition?
lust: what’s your Grail Camera?
sloth: letting cameras languish on the shelf - are pure shelf queens OK?
wrath: getting angry at your gear - have you ever hit a camera?
greed and gluttony: accumulating for the sake of same, and how to step away from it - the need for instant gratification - how to donate cameras (FPP school donation program), giving analog cameras to new parents, etc.
finally: what we need isn’t new film cameras, but guys and gals who can repair the ones we have - scholarship?
