so i go on this 'field trip' by any other name to teach the new guys at work how to use an SLR on manual. you think they'd have some idea. in the end i got pissed off at teaching them so i basically did my own thing. wow i know big shock. it was a pretty good night for it tho throw in i got to play with everyone's cameras. damn i hate pentax SLR's i mean the compacts are darn easy and pretty good but the digital SLR's are stupid. i love Canon. and i'll play with Nikon but given the opportunity that pentax K100D was going to be lobbed off that bridge and into the disgusting swamp that is Townsville water.
