Lost my GF1 last night :(

I can’t remember the last time I’ve lost something. Lost my wallet, keys too a few times when I was in high school, that was enough to teach me to always look around the table for stuff before I get up and go, but last night I lost my Panasonic Lumix GF1 camera.

I was out catching up with old mates. We ended up at Sean’s place and on the way out I left my jacket in his apartment so I had to go back up to get it (I think this was already a sign ahaha), we then walked from Broadway to Central to grab some McDonalds (as you do when you’re wasted) and after that we hopped in a cab home. A few minutes into the ride home I realised I’d lost the camera. Christina suggested we go back to get it, but I was pretty sure it would be gone for good. The cabbie urged me to call McDonalds and after some failed attempts I finally got through, camera wasn’t there though (of-course).

No-one to blame but myself. It definitely wasn’t on the table. I took the water home instead of the camera! It must have been on the bench next to me. There are a few really nice shots on there which I’m a bit sad to lose. Some shots from Wagaya the other night, new footage of Mia going nuts with a catnip toy, sunnies hunting with a mate Ben (who ended up with some hella pimp Armani’s!), a great accidental shot of Suga whilst she was placing a VWGolf card on a car windscreen last night and shots of Liz and Tab from last night’s catchup.

I’m sure the person who found the camera’s going to absolutely love the GF1, you never know, they might even get into photography because it’s so good!

Where to from here? I’ve been reading up on the new GF2 and everything I’m reading sounds crap. Funnily I had a random last night stop me mid conversation to ask if I had the GF1 or the GF2…when I told him it was a GF1 he gave me the thumbs up, very strange. The GF2 doesn’t come with the nice 20mm pancake lens which is what makes the GF1 so nice. I might consider a GF1 again, they’re cheaper now than when I bought mine (about $1k before and about $700 or so now at some places).
