20 years ago I bought my first digital stills camera. A Canon Powershot A40. I’ve not used it for well over a decade, so yesterday popped 4 x AA batteries in and was surprised to find it still works. The tiny postage stamp sized screen on the rear is rather more low res and wishy washy than I recall. But of course we’ve got used to today’s modern retina type displays with their high res and rich colours. Trying to operate the camera in anything but ‘auto’ was a little challenging, but finally managed to stop the lens down to its smallest aperture of a mere f8. So here we have the result with Comical Ned (with the funny shaped head) and Colin posing in front of a grubby Andrew Barclay chuffer.
As your photo shows those PowerShots were nifty and very capable cameras.
