Who Knows How This Will Work Out

Have you ever been walking(or running) along the beach with a big old digital SLR and a 4x5" pinhole camera while you have in your backpack 10 4x5" sheet film holders, a holga or mamiya, and a few lenses? Well I have and it can be a gigantic pain in the butt. So I decided to buy a Ricoh R8 digital camera for all those occasions when I want a little bit of portability on the digital side, without losing my style. It's not that I want to pack light, its just that I want to pack film heavy and still be able to take sweet pictures for the blog. I bought a demo model from Adorama too, so if it doesn't turn out to work that well, all is not lost, and I am sure I can find somebody who might want the camera. I was also planning on taking it with me on my reallllly long runs, both for its cameraness and because most cameras have some sort of internal clock that I can use to tell how long I have been running.
