the camera loves you, baby

Here's hoping!

I've been into photography lately. Not real photography, picture-taking as an artform. But sharing the things I see? Definitely. And I want better photo quality than my cameraphone can manage. This is not a new problem with the iPhone 4 (my model), and actually it's marginally better than the Droid I had before. But I've been doing enough of it that I wanted better equipment. People who know my neighborhood may think I'm crazy, but our corner of the Bronx actually is kind of beautiful.

So, I bought a new toy:

It's the latest generation of a camera Sulriel recommended over at FB. The reviews look good, both on Amazon and at techie sites. Amazon has a decent return policy so if I don't tlike it I should be able to get a refund. And it's on sale. I was planning on poking around for a few days or at least ask for more opinions, but with all that going in its favor, I decided to take the leap.

That's a nice little camera. Good luck with taking photos which I hope you will share.

That's the main point. :-) I can see what I see without the lens - but I like sharing it with other people so I post them here. It's my first ever digital camera, and I think it will do good for a start.

I will look forward to your photos then.I resisted getting a digital camera until the price of film shot up too much, but I love my digital camera now, it does so much you can't with film.

Nice camera. I'm a camera junkie and get a new one every couple of years. I love working digitally, there's so much that you can do. I look forward to seeing your pics.
