Kodak 12MP 30X Digital Camera
Tuesday, July 17, 2012
She’s a simple kinda gal, you see. A traditionalist. Straight out of the mid-20th century. She likes her cameras how she likes her men – no-nonsense point-and-clickers. The kind you have to wind up after each shot. She grew up in a small town with small town values. Where people take their time, people who don’t mind waiting for one-hour photo developing. She’ll never be ready for the fast-paced life of instant digital photo gratification.
You tell her you can record full 1080 HD video with stereo sound or create action prints, and she’ll be skeptical. You say you can simultaneously share to multiple social networks automatically (when you connect to a PC) and she’ll call you a liar. Pretty soon, you’ll be ostracized by the whole town. Labeled a freak and cast out. But don’t hold it against her. It’s how she was raised.
For now, you just stay on your side of the tracks (the wrong side) with your 30x Schneider-Kreuznach Variogon Optical Zoom Lens that delivers crisp, steady shots for extraordinary creative performance, and she’ll keep to hers. This is real life, after all. And her kinda folk don’t take too kindly to big city fancy pants types like you.
