Fountains of Wisdom

I used a long-discontinued Canon EOS 30D with a cheap secondhand 18-55mm kit lens for this picture. It's not a lightweight camera, but it is the lightest I've got, and I had some shopping to do. I probably need a compact camera, or a mirrorless, but the only type I am comfortable using is the SLR. It first became popular around 1960 (the SLR, not the Canon EOS 30D) and its been pre-eminent for almost 60 years. But its day is done, and I lament its inevitable decline and forthcoming marginalisation into some expensive photographic ghetto.
The Canon EOS 30D is a light-tight box with everything I need. I don't want geographical positioning, or immediate internet connection, nor can I not manage without articulated viewing screens and something called 'live view'. I paid about £60 for the camera and subsequently bought its successor, the EOS 40D, believing it would be even better. It wasn't, and I got rid of it. One of my main gripes was that it wasn't even as comfortable to hold, and its menu system was Byzantine compared to the simplicity of the 30D.
