Obviously, my digital camera is coming with.
The question is, which other cameras from my eclectic dilletante camera collection should I take? I can't take all of them b/c well, I'm still trying to pack light.

a. The manual Vivitar with a nice lens
b. The SX-70 Polaroid (I'd have to bring film with me and it's expensive, but so pretty)
c. The Color Splash Lomo that my dad just got for me in Prague (haven't tried it out yet, looks like it will be really cool but has an unwieldy attachment at the side where the color filters rotate)
d. The Holga (same film situation as SX-70, pretty and you can do double exposures)
e. Standard nice but not super-expensive automatic camera that will be the most easily replaceable if it's lost/stolen/I drop it into a waterfall (yes, I did that once).
f. Something else I have not thought of that I should go and buy immediately.

I vote a., because I think you'll have some pretty strong aesthetic impulses over that many months.

IMO...either the Lomo or the Holga.

i don't know much from cameras, but i am not prepared to let you go yet. What time is your flight? Any time between now and then?

I hope your going away thingy was fun!

"no, no, this isn't happening! this isn't happening!.. ***runs away is denial***
