What camera are you using??? Tom Date: 05/24/04 09:17 Re: Southern California Nights Author: Jefflocal Holy Nightshots Batman! Thanks for sharing these. Date: 05/24/04 14:35 Re: Southern California Nights Author: southlandwarrior Thanks for the kind comments, folks. As for camera gear, most of these were made using a Canon 300D aka the "Digital Rebel". Older photos were made with either a Canon Pro90IS (i.e., Amtrak 8th St., Commerce Diesel) or a Nikon Coolpix 5700 (Hinda sunset). --Jim
