After 5 years of good use, my trusty Hp-945 finally reacted to the wear. A corner on the camera body which houses the AA batteries got chipped on Friday night during the game. A quick fix with black hockey tape, provided by the nice officials in the penalty box, helped to keep it functioning.
Back at home, I managed to put some (don't laugh) industrial strength Velcro strips to keep the battery door closed and was able to continue shooting throughout Saturday's game.
I don't know how much longer the quick fix will last, and I don't know how else to repair it.
The sad part is that I can't afford to buy a new camera. Maybe soon, but not now. In the meantime, I want to thank all of you who have clicked on my ads on this blog. I have earned $1.16 so far and I know that I am on my way to achieving my goal of $400.00 to purchase a new camera.
So please, even if you only visit once in a while, click on the ads even if you don't care to buy. Every little penny adds up. I can't click on my own ads or I will be booted from Blogger. LOL!
And another thing, feel free to leave comments and suggestions. Would like to post whatever ideas you have. Help me make this site a bit more interesting. As you can see, I have no talent whatsoever.
