Another small option to carry around the Nikon EM

|

Recently I blogged on my Coolpix P50 as a carry everyday camera. But if you want a small SLR the Nikon EM is small and as easy to use as any camera out there. Just load it up with some general purpose film and a small Nikon 50 f1.8E lens and it goes everywhere.

The meter is Nikon's tried and true CW meter and the camera is a simple aperture priority camera. Just point focus and choose your aperture and off you go. Simple fast and fun. The EM's viewfinder is clear and bright and the needle analog display is easy to read and it will even beep to remind you if the shutter is to slow to hand hold.

So for a few bucs you can buy a Nikon EM and have a ton of fun.

How to make photography easier for everyday life

|

I created this blog a few weeks ago but I really did not have anything to blog about. Well over the last few weeks my mind started to wonder how do you integrate photography into everyday life and events.

Now you may ask what am I getting at I shoot with both film and digital Nikons but many of my everyday activities make carting a camera around difficult if not impossible. Well then came my Coolpix P50! This little digicam does a lot and is fun to use so my problem of size and convenience is solved I find I take my Coolpix P50 everywhere, camping with my Scout Troop, in the car and for that walk about town. So for those who want to make photography a larger part of their everyday life get a small camera like the Coolpix P50 it is fun and easy to capture events you might miss if you do not have a small throw in your pocket camera. This has me really thinking of a more powerful compact like the P5100 or P6000! :D
