I've gone right off my canon - haven't touched it for aaaaaages! Don't have any desire to either, its on my desk gathering dust, I don't have enough space in my kit bag for my lomo film and other stuff to carry it around lol.

I would sell my digital equipment but I need it for wedding purely because its what people want to see ugh! I'd rather use film, but its also more cost productive for me (although I also despise weddings but don't get me started on them!)

The only digital equipment I'd touch if I had a choice would be a digital back for a Hasselblad, or possibly a completely digital hasselblad if I won the lottery (anyone got £20,000 to spare?)

I'm waiting to see if I've got the funds to buy it, ideally I want it before budapest next month (actually I think its only in 2 weeks time that I leave for my little trip, I can't wait!)

Re: Hasselblad
