Is it good? Want a bit of money for it? In australia? <br/><br/>I&#39;m happy to go with something aged in good working order. My main interests are macro botanical photography and art nudes in expansive landscapes. I also do some event photography (mostly motor sports) and increasingly, documenting disasters and drought. <br/><br/>I love a dedicated monochrome sensor with an excellent dynamic range, have a fraught relationship with colour sensors.<br/><br/>Interested mostly in camera bodies, although you could almost certainly tempt me to take old lenses off your hands, especially macro lenses.<br/><br/>Edit: I don&#39;t care how old it is but want it to behave like it&#39;s 1990-2005. Auto focus is good, auto white balance can be nice. An automatic star trail mode is handy.

Because you cannot sing the same song together forever without stopping.<br/><br/>You must rest when you&#39;re tired, then perhaps sing a different song, maybe with different people.
