"There will be times when you will be in the field without a camera. And, you will see the most glorious sunset or the most beautiful scene that you have ever witnessed. Don't be bitter because you can't record it. Sit down, drink it in, and enjoy it for what it is! ~DeGriff"

Digital SLR: Konica Minolta Maxxuum 7D (also called Dynax 7D outside North America). Recently, Konica Minolta sold its digital camera division to Sony and Sony markets the same camera, but with slightly varying features, such as a 10M pixel sensor instead of a 7M pixel sensor, as Sony Alpha DSLR-alpha100.
Lens:
- Konica Minolta 18-55mm (f/3.5-f/5.6) Digital SLR lens
- Sigma 24-75mm (f/3.5-f/5.6)
- Tamron 70-300mm (f/4.0-f/5.6)
- Minolta 50mm (f/1.7)
SLR: Minolta Maxxum HTsi Plus
Film: Primarily Fuji Sensia 100 slide film
Processing:
- Thanks to the Electronic Resource Center at Rice University, I used a Nikon Super Coolscan 4000 with the SF-200 multiple slide adapter.
- CyberView slide scanner. I no longer use this scanner.
- Google Picassa: Really handy for minor adjustments such as rotation, cropping, saturation, etc. I stay away from major cosmetic surgeries since I hate botox infused pictures.
