Today I sent off my G1 to the Canon repair shop to be repaired. Last week I mentioned that the camera was not working and things haven't changed. So I bit the bullet and I'm sending it off to the repair shop.
Without a digital camera I feel totally naked. I love my Lomo and Elan 7, but it's not the same as being able to take a photo and immediately post it to my site or email it to someone. I have grown attached to the digital lifestyle. Now I will have to wait at least two weeks before I see my camera again and my pocketbook will likely be a lot lighter at that point. This feels a lot like tv-turnoff week.
One upshot is that if my camera is broke, it means I might be able to get a G5 to go with a new G5. (Really I can't afford either, but a boy can dream.)
