My new camera!

May. 26th | Posted by 6 comments

My poor old camera got knocked off my desk by an errant cat foot about a month ago, and the lense was scratched.  At first, I just put up with it, but then everytime I took a picture or video in daylight, there was this white blur on the top lefthand corner. 

So, I emptied my allowance account (and borrowed a bit, as Jorck would insist I point out) to buy a new camera.  Nothing fancy! Just a $199 8x optical zoom with some video. But it’s tiny and it’s sure fun to have a new toy.  I took some pics this morning ont he way to preschool, but had to adjust the colouring quite a bit after, so we’ll see if I can fix the camera.  One awesome new feature is that it has a wide angle lense – cool!


Jrock and Great-grandad chatting last night after he arrived fromt he airport.  Look how wide the screen is!


Spice and Sugar with flowers for their teacher, on the way to preschool. the clarity is really good – that said, I had the image size turned way to high up!


The old homestead… looking quite summery.


Haatim – non-plussed (or should I say non-pussed?) at the new camera being shoved in his face.

    I also love your house!!! Having been to the Cotswolds, I would agree that it would fit right in!

    I have the same camera – LOVE it!!! Awesome pics!! My sister in law brought hers like that (previous model) to Ethiopia and her pics were so awesome that I had to get one too. I have had mine for about a year and just love it. It is nice and tiny and really easy to use!!
