We were completely surprised this year with a great tax return (I was so not expecting that...). Most went to paying for my lovely pile of old medical bills, but we needed to get one little "treat" didn't we? My plea was somewhere along the lines of "we need to be able to document our child's life..." and it worked!
So we got a new camera!!! It came in the mail yesterday and I really love it. I found this list of the 10 best point and shoot cameras for 2012 and went with the #1 choice. I found the best price at Target. This camera fit my list of wants with being completely affordable and still take good, clear pictures.
I used to think that I wanted a fancy Nikon or Canon DSLR camera but then one day I realized that I do not need a fancy camera like that. I'm not a photographer and have no intentions of every becoming one. All I need is a camera to snap pictures of my cute boy and husband that will fit in my purse and that would make me happy as can be. So I'm very happy with my purchase. And on the plus side... it's much easier to blog when you have a camera ;).
My boy asked what I wanted to take a picture of with my new toy (he's a smart boy) and I said that I wanted a picture of his big blue eyes and little nose that's speckled with freckles. Yes he's sweaty and flushed from the park and has a dirty face (always) but oh those blue eyes...
Beautiful blue eyes!! Good choice on the point and shoot. Seriously. I wish I had gone with one instead of my massive DSLR. Luckily my iphone has come to the rescue and I take more pictures with it than my actual camera. One, because it's easier to use, and two because I always have it in my purse anyway! So excited for all the new pictures to come!
ReplyDeleteYay! There is nothing more fun than a new camera. I have a Canon Rebel, but it is way annoying to tote around. Your little guy is so adorable!
ReplyDeleteYay for a new camera!! Our two cameras are old (5+ years) and beat up... we need a new one soon but for now we're making do. :)
