Step forward a few years. Hatty's 6th birthday. Hatty's first camera. If I'd had one of these in the mid-70's I would undoubtedly have been the next Almodovar. What a waste of my burgeoning, mercurial talent.
I remember my first camera. A 110mm Kodak thingy that was as cool as: I think it might well have been one of these. A film cost about a day's wages, developing it twice as much. It produced nasty, blurry snaps from its fixed-focus lens but hey, it's all there was. Step forward a few years. Hatty's 6th birthday. Hatty's first camera. If I'd had one of these in the mid-70's I would undoubtedly have been the next Almodovar. What a waste of my burgeoning, mercurial talent. Of course, the problem with giving such a devastating handful of technology to a 6-year old is that they have no concept of data-storage. Hatty is turning out 500MB a day... 'Oh No... the batteries have run out...'
