Old Leica film cameras are considered some of the best 35mm cameras you can get but with the switch to digital, I really don’t think their tech actually inside the camera really holds up to what Nikon, Canon or Sony are putting out within that price range but none of them would ever be worth as much as this Leica from 1923:

I visit WMPU fairly often and I couldn’t see that they spoke to someone unless that was awhile ago? I believe we will definitely see something WP8 related, how else are devs going to know what to develop for? Besides, it makes sense for MS to show off WP8 as Apple will show off iOS 6 at WWDC and Android Jelly Bean will be shown off at Google I/O. The reason MS hasn’t shown off anything for Apollo yet is because they don’t want there to be such a huge gap between reveal and release like there was with Mango (shown in Feb 2011, released 8-9 months later). The other reason I believe that Apollo will be shown is that WMPU actually got an invite and why would Microsoft invite them to a developer summit?

Are these photos available in high res anywhere? Some of them are simply stunning. I really like the shot orbiting Earth where the city lights are blurred yet the stars are still.

I personally despise turning my colour photographs black and white. I’m usually in a different frame of mind when I shoot for colour or B+W and not every colour photograph is made for B+W but I am talking film here. Maybe I’m just not very good at turning my photos B+W in a digital, I just find it very difficult to do when you have actual experience within a darkroom. Black ink just doesn’t look as good to me as light exposed on paper(and I’ve used top of the line equipment) and spending hours and hours trying to get the perfect print, hovering bits of card over certain areas to get the exposure you want.

You can attach docs in e-mails but Windows Phone does it quite retardedly to be quite frank. To send an e-mail with a doc attachment you have to open up Office and do it through there rather than directly through E-mail but even then you can only attach 1 document at once.
