camera...

A sad day on Thursday....while out enjoying a lovely brunch at Taylors Studios in Upper Swan with Sharon and her girls my camera (Canon 400D) died...stone dead...PANIC....lol...but then I remembered the poor thing was two years old and I wore out the last one in two years from taking SO many photos...I got it just after E turned 4 as it died at her birthday party and I needed a new one before Morganne was born....lol...so I trotted off yesterday to see if it could be fixed...no...it had definitely had it...

So then within ten minutes I was then the proud owner of a fabulous Canon 500D...bliss...it makes my old camera look like rubbish and I had loved that one! I have a new lens 18-200 so I don't have to change it...and a battery pack for two batteries...I had a quick play yesterday and straight away you can see what fabulous photos it will take! I am just a point and shoot kind of a girl...on auto...and occasionally "running man" for action or P if I don't want the flash...lol...dont even know what these are for really! I really should learn but this camera is amazing even on auto!

Fortunately Ben is very tolerant and rather happy that at least I wear out my cameras! I have wanted a 500D for a while...I did consider a 50D but as I mainly use auto I am sure the 500D will be fantastic! Bigger and heavier with new lens and battery pack...but I will cope! Lissy
