| Intro: | Born in Prague before 59 years. Profession - orthopaedic surgeon. First experience with camera at early childhood ( simple camera Pionyr), later I used fatherīs Veltaflex. When I studied secondary school, I earned money to buy russian Zenith 3M, which was one of the best cameras avaiable in Czechoslovak Socialist Republicat this time. I used Zenith long years, sometime perforation of the film was broken, but most pictures was suitable.I developed films in our bath-dark-room. Mostly used films was b+w Foma,Fomapan, later expensive colour Orwo(East German product). When I was nearly 35, I lived 7 years in Africa and I bought Ricoh Mirai, by my opinion excelent film camera. A few years ago I decided to change my photo life and try digital photo. First camera was Olympus 740, but I was not so much happy with it and I changed soon to Panasonic Lumix FZ 30. With this camera I made upto now thousands pictures and I am 95% satisfied. Manual sharpening, manual exposition is what I like. Only weak point is baterry which has very low capacity - one day photo trip means at least 2 bateries. The last and very new camera is Canon 40D. During my last trip to Southeast Asia I learned to manage this camera and first result You can see on TE. | |
