Mini Digital
December 5th, 2006
Just for fun. And why do we do this if not for fun? I shot this photo of Amanda tonight with a brand new digital camera I just bought yesterday. It cost $10 at the Walgreens up the street. It’s a real digital camera. Hooks up to the computer with USB. You can use it over and over as long as you keep downloading and deleting the files from the camera. Has enough internal memory for 20 “high” resolution shots. Yes, it’s crappy quality and the files are tiny (high resolution is pretty low). But WOW! Ten dollars! And it takes photos. This has shot in fairly dim light inside. I’m going to have to shoot something outdoors or by a window in daylight to see if the softness is camera movement or just the lens. It’s an f/2.8 lens…amazing.
Just for fun. But really, I can remember (showing my advanced age) when a digital camera of this resolution cost $20,000.
Could this be the true digital Holga?
