I broke a personal promise to myself about not purchasing any more camera equipment. I shouldn't have bothered. I have purchased a new camera, which I will eventually get around to writing about. In the mean time I'm learning how to use it, especially one of its (to me at least) notable features, the ability to produce "Leica" style black-and-white photographs.
This camera is good enough that I've stopped creating both a raw and JPEG image. All of my images so far have been just JPEG, which means I've cut my image storage requirements by at least a half, if not more.
At least the new camera was deeply discounted, and I was able to trade in an older camera for $200 that I'd not used since before I retired. Once again, this new camera was one of those deep discounts that I can't ignore. Once again I did quite well by trading on the trailing edge of camera technology, even though the features on this "trailing edge" make it more than competitive with cameras that are way more expensive.
