THANKS to to the folks who’ve hit the tipjar lately! Somebody asked whether I prefer donations via PayPal or Amazon. Honestly, I’m just delighted that anyone would donate at all. But all things equal, I prefer PayPal — I’ve kind of dedicated its proceeds toward the purchase of whatever fancy digital camera I wind up buying.
UPDATE: BTW, here’s an interesting set of comparison photos among the Sony DSC-F828, the Nikon Coolpix 8700, and the Canon Powershot Pro1. Main lesson — boy are there a lot of good digital cameras coming out now.
