Re: Pixma. I’ve done 2 13x19, 2 11x17 and about a dozen 8x10 prints. I’ve used about 20 percent of the dye. That seems reasonable, and suggests decent longevity. Paper is about $30 per 50 sheets. Per print cost is probably a couple bucks. If I had gotten all of these professionally printed, and it’s all photos I wanted printed and framed, we would be deep into the cost of the printer. I’m very glad I bought it.

Mine, unfortunately, didn't come with a pocket watch. 

 

I love my Df.  It’s so fun, and the sensor has a certain magic to it.

In the consumerism thread, I mentioned tracking down a copy of The Pillar by Stephen Gill, an originally self-published photobook that made waves a few years ago. A London photographer moves to Sweden and slows down. Thought some of you may enjoy a few shots also.
