in mourning the tragic loss of Snappy, who has decided it would snap no more. Apparently the Canon A70 comes with a built-in design flaw that makes it die right after the warranty expires. Damn you, E18 error! Damn you to hell!
I will say, however, that Snappy served me loyally for a year and a half, and up until its death, made me a very happy rappy. I am making no plans at the moment to replace it, due mainly to financial considerations. For the time being I'll get the film from my SLR camera developed on CD.
RIP, sweet Snappy. Rest in peace.
*smiff*

Have fun with your SLR. What is THAT camera's name?

I'm so sad that Snappy is gone. Is it too soon to ask if you'll be naming your SLR to take Snappy's place?
Posted by: Tanya at March 1, 2005 05:32 PMI'm infinitely amused by the fact that Tanya and Jorge asked me the same question. I haven't given the naming thing much thought, especially given that I don't foresee it happening anytime soon. Mind you, I've already named the cat I don't have, so that's not really a valid excuse.
As for repairing it, from what I've read, it costs about as much as the cost of the camera to repair. The guy at the photo store around the corner told me to bring it in and he'd take a look, but I don't know that I'm willing to actually spend money on repairing it at this point. I've also not been particularly snappy of late, so I don't really want to invest in it.

Posted by: Jorge at March 4, 2005 11:09 AMAwww! You know I coveted Snappy every since I saw her first photo appear on your blog. When and if I'm ever out of my financial constraints [i.e. strait jacket] I want my next digital camera to be from the Snappy family too.
