I borrowed a little Nikon 990 from school to see what I could do with it. I can't say this is the model for me, but it's furthered my resolve that someday I want to work all digital. It was so cool to just shoot something set up on my kitchen table and plug it in and have it on my computer and in Photoshop within a couple minutes. No scanning, no cloning out dust particles, no paying for film! I can use one sheet of film when I output it on the laser film recorder later. I always print on actual photographic paper if I can help it, since the Epson prints look great for about a week, but within a month or two they've faded. I don't want to know what they'll look like in 5 years.
I tried doing something digitally that I just wasn't pulling off photographically. Maybe it works, maybe not, but it sure was spiffy making pictures in Photoshop. I feel more like an illustrator than a photographer today.
So. An electric bride and groom in color and black and white.
I'll spare you all the extension cord porn I made later.

Posted by: heather on August 14, 2002 12:41 PMthe nikon 990 might be a cool camera, almost as much as the 885. i personally use an older olympus c 2020z or the newer minolta dimage x. i like the "bride & groom" pix!
