I have an idea...

Many of our members still have film cameras. And some even use them! This is for film junkies

Why only 36 shots. Depending how sparingly you load the leader you can get more than 36 shots. Maybe you could have a standby list.

Oops make that 24 instead of 36. Just read the 2nd page of the post.

Because I only had 22 expressions of interest and couldn't roll 44 or any other multiple of 22 to give everyone the same number of shots.

You're a bit too late. Its already passed through the Blue Mountains. Besides, I seem to recall the OP insisted on minimum 500 posts to be eligible - it's his camera & he wanted to be sure the recipients were unlikely to take the camera and vanish.

I have been away for a while and was wondering what's happened with this idea. Have there been any photos yet. Can someone update me.

Thanks.

Surely emoticons, by their very nature, are for expressing emotions rather than thoughts :P
