A Canon G series camera will work. I have a G11 that I use. The macro setting is helpful.
Oops! And, Hmbl. Ed. Needs Advice
The Single Use Device; a not-very-good product shot under the fluorescents. So I made one big mistake in the last two days. I had a Pentax 31mm Limited lens here that I listed for sale. Turns out that was a loan from a reader, Yoshi C. Yes, years ago, and I had lost track of where it had come f...
Ironically, Lee (and Washington) May have been pleased by the ultimate result, which is the preservation of the property from the hands of developers.
