:-( :-( :-( Gabriel is dead. His DC converter and winding mechanism both broke, and would need to be replaced to the tune of $127. I love Gabriel, but I only paid $200 for him in the first place, so I told them to just ship the body home. I hope they got that roll of film out.

But I got a new camera :-) It's by some non-big-name-brand company, but it's fully manual, which I like because I get to mess with more stuff. It looks about 10 years old, and I picked it up at a pawn shop this weekend for $75. It's in nice condition, no lense scratches or anything. I can't wait to try it out! You won't believe how often I wanted to shoot stuff while I was good-camera-less...

So yes, I mourn Gabriel's demise. But now I get to name my new camera. I haven't decided on anything for sure yet. Clark? Edward? Liam? Hmmmm...
