Barcelona: Camera Shopping

July 29, 2002 @ 08:21 AM

Finally broke down and bought a new camera. When I ducked into the Pentax service shop this morning and found out the needed replacement part is no longer available from the manufacturer, it was clearly time to go camera shopping. A couple metro rides and a bit of walking later I found myself at the Fotoprix being helped by a nice young man who spoke broken English. With his help, bought myself a simple Canon Elph, called an IXUS here in Spain. I don´t dare check Amazon to compare prices to what I paid; I´m sure I paid more then I would have in the states.

Now, I’m off to retrace some steps, and take up as much photographic slack from the past couple weeks before I catch out for Seville tomorrow morning. Hasta leugo.
