Merry Christmas!
Now let me ask all of you something: for an unpredictable series of events tomorrow I will be alone and I was thinking to spend some time enjoyg London without anyone around. Any ideas where I can take full advantage of the situation? Thanks!
I am sure tomorrow will be better than yesterday ... yesterday I fell down a muddy bank with my Intrepid 4x5 in a backpack and, as welll as twisting my knee, broke the Intrepid. It was inside a cushioned laptop case inside the backpack, but I guess there's not much hope for plywood when the force of an overweight man is applied. A substantial tripod clamp was attached to the camera which may have exacerbated the situation.
Looking on the bright side, I did stop before the edge of the cliff ...
If only this had happened about three months ago I would have had time to arrange a new camera as a Xmas present !
Anyway, Merry Xmas to you all.
Both the base and the rear standard are damaged, so there's not much that could be kept. Looking at options for a new camera now.Oh Kevin, that IS bad news. Is the Intrepid modular, ie can be fixed in some way? Hope you have a good Christmas nevertheless...
Happy Christmas all, and thanks to TP and you all for getting me back into this hobby, even if you have caused me to spend a fair bit of dosh achieving ambitions (Pentax LX, ETRS, D500, 150-600c...).
Happy shooting for next year
