Exclamation Croftinnz aka Achilles needs HELP. (Camera)

Hi there,

Those of you reading this will probably know me, who I am and what I'm doing around here. If not take a moment to read http://www.musclegrowth.org/forum/showthread.php?t=7875 this thread and come back later.

Video blogging my growth through YouTube is something that has given me tremendous pleasure over the last year or so, it's put me in touch with many fantastic, generous people, given me motivation and encouragement to keep shooting for my dreams, keep growing. (And as a by note to those same people - yes, I haven't been around much. Working on that, sorry.) But right now, my channel is dead in the water. Because my camera is completely BROKEN.

It actually happened on the night I snapped these pics - way back in March. I dropped the camera on my bedroom floor, and whatever happened, the thing is dead. It's just taken me this long to figure out what I was going to do about it.

Truth-telling time, and the thing is, I'm not a rich man. Not at all. Week-to-week I rarely have money left over after bills (and bodybuilding expenses). I can't afford another camera like the one I broke right now, although it is four years old now. Since the beginning of sharing my muscle growth I've had a lot of offers from viewers offering to send me money for 'sponsorship' and other deals - I've always declined. I've never wanted to be in anyone else's pocket on this journey, to have done it myself without owing anyone anything.

However, if I'm going to continue these vids which people enjoy so much at all, I'm just putting this out to see if there's any generosity out there. Does anyone have a spare digital camera they no longer need? I know that digital technology is always improving, and I thought possibly someone here might have upgraded their own camera, and have another sitting on their shelf gathering dust they'd be willing to gift this musclehead. The only requirement is that it can capture video, with audio at a quality good enough for YouTube. Not too lo-res, but doesn't need to be capable of shooting the next Hollywood blockbuster or anything.

If anyone has such a camera, PM me here please.

If its any additional incentive, I could probably send the generous guy a special video with the camera for their sole enjoyment once I got it.

You guys are my first stop. If there's no bites here, I'll be talking to the rest of my YouTube subscribers next. Cheers...

You can have my old 3.3Mp Olympus digital camera that I do not use anymore. It still works and takes pretty decent pictures.
