finally, our kitty
I think Meg took this with a Canon A400, f3.8, 1/8 second, ~48mm 35 equivalent. Kitty is about 3 months old, maybe less than 2 months old in this photo.

camera bag reviews
This bag just fits a Leica M body, along with some room in the corners for a roll of film, and the 35/2 summicron asph hood (detached). The fit would be much smoother with a pre-asph cron, or Rokkor 40. The build quality is typical for an inexpensive bag - the loops for the stitched on adjustable strap are plastic, and the zipper, dual zippers for the top compartment, don't seem heavy duty, but there is minimal padding on all sides, and the included velco dividers prevent the camera and lens from getting scratched from any other accessories in the pouch. This bag was purchased at Longs for about $14, the generic name tag says "mobile+life" with icons of a digicam, mp3 player, cell phone, and handheld PDA on a black and grey card. This bag is a nice padded carrier for the M inside a larger backpack or travel case.

morning flight
Fuji f31fd, 1/200, f5.6, ISO 100, b&w mode, ~38mm 35mm equivalent fl. I'm not sure if I like the f31fd's b&w as much as the f30's, but the f30 now has over 8000 photos taken on it, so, unable to find an f30 backup, I got an f31fd which is a newer model, but has some slight noise reduction changes in the firmware from the older f30.
