I still have an 8Mb card knocking about at home.........good for 1 shot
Memory Lane,
Dragon 32, revolutionised home computing, no hard drive, had to save everything to a floppy, plugged into a TV, write your own programmes.
Or am I the only one old enough to remember them. Lol
Floppys?
Try tape cassettes. (licking road clean wi' tounge)

Licking road clean wi` tongue, you were lucky lad, we were poor buggers that had to sweep the road clean first with our nose hairs, still attached to the nose,
My mate had a sinclair (Z8 i think) with the soft blue keys and had a seperate 6" monitor, we spent the whole of one weekend programming from a book that was bigger than the computer and after about 24 hours work we managed to draw an outline of a face on it, boy we thought we were techno wizzkids then.
And its been all down hill ever since

Ah yes the ZX Spectrum 48 with rubber keys... the only computer that "bounced" when you dropped it
Manic Miner, Jet Set Willy, Crash magazine... those were the days!
Ooh, we used t'dream of livin' in a cardboard box.
If you upgraded the atom to 8k you had to build a bigger PSU - such was the power drain.
Aye and you try tellin' the kids of today that!
Cardboard box!!, you were lucky and must have lived in the posh part of town, we lived in shoe box in gutter and dreamt of saving up to buy a lid for it
and when it got cold, dad sucked an extra strong mint and we all warmed our hands on his tongue
Right then,
We used to get up i'mornin, before it were time t'go t'bed. Work 27hrs down pit and pay owner f'the privilige.
And when we'd get back home our dad would beat us t'death wi' a stick and jump up and down on our graves singing Allelulia.
sorry Steve!
There seems to be a lot more banter going on in the old threads that I am reading..........I must be getting old
Electrolyte makes an amazing discovery
Thanks in advance if any one can give me some advice on shutter speeds and how to remove ghosting. Obviously I do realise that I may simply be a crap photographer!
Memory lane.
Acorn Atom with 2kb ram?
