An ode to the D50

19 October 2005

(with apologies to Karen and Elizabeth Barrett Browning)

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when reaching for your strap
For the comforting weight that fits my grasp.
I love thee to the level of every day's
Most quiet need, to shoot by sun or candle-light.
I love thee freely, and for thy focus assist light.
I love thee purely, I can now shoot RAW.
I love thee with a passion put to use
For professional briefs, or for my creative urges.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With the old 5700. I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my subjects; and, if I lose thee,
I shall but love thee until I get the next model.
