Nikon AF 600 or Lite Touch
I am always disturbed to see discarded images of real, and presumably, living persons at the thrift store. Forgotten. Sad. I can't help but feel its there because of an act of hate or self-hatred. Why is the boy with the nice smile there?
This is shot with a Nikon AF600 which I sought out for a long time. I still haven't given it a thorough work out.
It has a 28mm at a maximum aperture of f3.5. It can focus as close as 14 inches.
A run-down on fine and not-so hot Nikon P&S can be found here:www.mir.com.my/rb/photography/companies/nikon/htmls/model...
and here, if you read French.
In the picture below, it's the one in the top left corner:
