A few months ago Smirk was about to sell his Olympus
C-5500 Zoom digital camera on eBay when I decided to buy it (price was
right—about $100) for Spring, who had been wanting one for a
long time.
It turns out that Spring didn't really like it—she preferred my digital
camera. And looking over hers, I found it had many features I missed having in
a digital camera—manual shutters, manual aperture, manual focus, higher
resolution, better performance in low light, blah blah blah, that I
preferred her camera.
So we traded.
Can you believe that's
without a telescope? Just the Olympus C-5500 zoomed all the
way out.
It's a nice camera.
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
