A little advice please.
I am heading to California in a 10 days and am hoping to get some great shots I can blow up and display. My friends own a bar/gallery that displays artists work and said they would be happy to show some of my stuff (providing it is decent). I intend to make Joshua Tree National Park the place I take the bulk of my pictures.
I would like some colour and some b&w prints. I would rather not be rewinding film mid-roll in order to change back and forth. So should I take all shots in colour and later convert to b&w using Photoshop (which I don't have yet) or should I invest in a second camera, even just a compatible body so that I can alternate between styles.
I have a Minolta 303si right now (until I can upgrade to my dreamy Maxxum 7) and considered getting a cheaper X-700, X-370 or similar manual camera to be the secondary body. Are lenses between the 303si and X-series cameras even compatible?
Well thanks in advance to any advice.
