Jayne has a 'point and shoot' autofocus type camera and takes the family snaps, including our 2 children, and I thank her for it as I hardly ever do. And meanwhile I take pictures of old dustbins, rotting fish, empty signposts and any other strange artifact which seems to intrigue me and bemuses everyone else! Thankfully, I've never felt as if there was any sort of competetition going on here, we just get on with snapping whatever we want...

We are very similar, but of course I'm very impatient, and so I snap snap snap, and like using the SLR as well. Besides, I certainly do not need competition ;-) We tried sharing a camera in the USA last year and it was a bit of a disaster. She did not like the rangefinder CLE as it was then, and wanted her own camera. I should do as you suggest, but perhaps I need my own SLR ;-)
