29 Aug 2025 DONATING MY VIDEO CAMERA

This afternoon, I dropped in to the High School with my Canon video camera, which I bought in 2016, seeking to donate it to their Media Arts Department. Unlike my previous cameras which required mini-tapes, the Cannon uses memory cards. I made an appointment to see one of the Film  and TV teachers, which gave me time to go home and collect the camera battery charger. The teacher was thrilled to receive the donation, so I returned with the tripod which has been kept in a succession of my cars since 1998. Hopefully, the camera will still be in working order, given that I last filmed with it in December 2021. As with the clear garage space, I delight in the gap in my bedroom occupied by the camera case for as long as the tripod was kept in my car. I couldn’t be without my point and shoot at close range, stills camera, which I make frequent good use of.
