I Am a Camera

Yaay, people! I bought my digital camera online earlier today through Best Buy and arranged to pick it up at their local store. It was on sale for Memorial Day, and I saved enough on the holiday discount to cover the cost of a case and memory card for it. The total for the camera and accessories also came to $70 less than I had budgeted for the whole thing, so I am ahead. I am going to use some of the balance to buy tickets to go see The Faint, bonus for me.

Here is the camera - it's pink!

It got really good customer reviews that said it was easy to use, and a four-and-a-half star rating, so I figured it would be perfect for me. I'm not really tech-y and I just need something simple that works well. I've also had good luck with every Kodak thing I've ever bought. I'm going to devote time tonight to reading the manual and figuring it out, and will start on the Etsy merch photos as soon as the weather clears up here in L.A. It's really overcast and cold and windy, and I need to take the pictures outside. I want to be really proficient on this thing before I go to France in July. I want to take LOTS of pictures of Paris, Rennes, and Mont St. Michel. I also plan to do a lot of reading and editing this weekend.
