I'm hoping this Flickr account will spur me into scanning in all the photo's I've been meaning to scan in for the past few years. Flickr is certainly a less time consuming option than updating the gallery on my website. Hopefully it will also encourage me to just get out there and TAKE SOME DAMN PHOTO'S!

Current Gear:

Digital:
Canon EOS 400D + Canon Battery Grip
Lenses: 18-55 EF-S IS, 50mm f1.8 EF, 75-300mm USM MK3 EF, and my newly acquired EF 28-135mm IS USM (awesome lens)
Nissin Speedlite Di622 Flash

Kodak DC120 (1st ever 1mp Digital camera!)
Olympus Mju Mini 4mp (belongs to Mrs r3tr0fr34k)
Fuji Finepix 2600 Zoom

Film:
Pentax ME Super
Lenses: Pentax 50mm f1.7, Vivitar Close Focus 28mm, Pentax 135mm f2.5
All my Pentax stuff is to be eBay'd. The ME Super struggles with the slower shutter speeds and underexposes. Plus film is bocoming a pain to scan, catalogue, set the capture time etc.

Olympus XA2
Panasonic 35mm compact (it really isn't!) zoom
Polaroid Impulse AF
Halina A1 (My second one, as the first one died a while ago)
Ilford Sportsman (the first kind to be released circa 1957/58)

Current 'pooter:
2.4Ghz Core 2 Duo, 6 gig RAM, 320gig 2.5" & 500gig 3.5" SATA drives, NVidia GT220.

Canon Lide 30 scanner
Epson GT-7000 scanner with film adaptor (does medium format) Pretty much dead, about to be replaced with an Epson Perfection V500, if the tossers ever actually deliver it to me! Sure you'll call me back, like you haven't the past 3 times, yeh, sure you'll email me the tracking number and not fup off to the pub instead >:(
*Update* Got my V500, and very nice it is too. Thanks to the company I bought it from being completly feckless, over a year later I still owe them 50 quid and they have made no attempt to contact me. The pain they put me through 50 quid is the least I deserve!

Past cameras I have owned (in chronological order as best as I can remember!)

Kodak Brownie of some kind
Practica LTL SLR
Chinon CE-4 K-fit manual focus body
Halina A1 (120 roll film)
Ricoh 500 G
Pentax P50 (the ME Super is a much better camera IMHO)
Canon EOS 100
Olympus Trip 35
Fuji Finepix 2600 Zoom
Polaroid Impulse AF
Kodak DC120 (1st ever 1mp Digital camera!)
