Subject: I have been cursed by the photography god

I discovered about one month ago my battery to the Sony digi had died as did the battery to my Sony camcorder! Mid way through this month my Pentax 35mm started acting up. Now all it does is show E36 and open the zoom lense to the maximum zoom. I'm considering getting a newer camera. But am afraid I'll loose some features from my current Pentax. Last night my Kodak 320 x 200 digi camera (my first digi! ) flash croaked on me. I tried to fix it. But now there is this serious spark ark when I activate the flash. Then the flash stopped again. :-( Maybe my dad can fix the thing. I think I know what's wrong but soldering is not my forte. What did I do? Why is the photography god angry at me? Was it the lack of nudies? Was it I didn't take pics of the 4th of July fireworks? Does it want me to take it on vacation again? Somebody explain this bad luck to me. And while you are at it does anyone own a Pentax IQ Zoom 170? ( The the newer camera I have my eye on.) Bsteph

Sorry you are feeling the wrath, Bsteph... Can't help you on the camera front, but perhaps a month of hard labour (OK - a month of some damn fine photography) would appease the gods). LOL Sorry about your run of bad luck! Dave

it's all about the moon's phases my man. Watch the moon, and act accordingly, and all shall be well from now on.

hummmmm... man.... the past month i was robbed, during a trip, of my Mamiya 645 Medium Format Cameras with all the optics... a 80mm and a 210mm... a Polaroid Back, A 220 Back, a 120Back, a Pentaprism and my Minolta Flashmeter V Esposimeter.... and 15 exposed films. (not counting the 45 films to be exposed...)....... there's no limit to the bad luck....

OOOOO. Sorry to hear it. Did you get a chance to kick the bum who stole them? Hopefully it won't profit the person who got you stuff. Bsteph
