Today is a happy day - again

Post by majcka »

Again my GH and its tenants feeled me with joy this morning.

My beloved Glandulicactus in full glory:

Gymno's probably bruchii, flower colour can vary from pink to white on different forms.

Actually I'm not quite satisfied with it. And I lost one part of it. So.....I'm looking for one that has a posibility of manual focusing.

I'm decinding between Canon EOS 1100D and Nikon D3100 right now. All other are out of my reach at the moment.

DP reviews do some of the best reviews of cameras Maja, often around 19-20 pages long:-

I knew you will be generous enough to stock me with information. I actually saw that alreday but you must understand 20 pages of English reading is a bit frustrating for me. Hell even 20 pages of Slovenian reading is a bit frustrating for me. ](*,)

And I already know you are a Nikon user yourself. :lol:

I think I will just buy a piece with best terms of purchase. Some sellers do offer action purchase with extra discount for memory stick and camera case. Or maybe extra lenses for reasonable price.
