Standing in an area with lots of feet traffic, many passers by looked on with interest.
A ~45 yr old woman remarked "They make digital these days, you know! Slips right into your pocket". To which I just laughed and replied "different blokes, different strokes".
A ~18yr old girl (and cute at that) walk by and said "That's a rad looking camera". I was speechless.
Seems the youth of today is not as stupid as we make them...
