Yay! We finally went and picked up my new camera for my course - and it is WAY awesome! I ended up going with the Nikon D80 SLR Digital. We were shopping around and found that our local London Drugs has a pretty good deal on them, and then as we were walking by, we saw that the little local no name camera shop was also having a special. Being me, I prefer to support small businesses when I can, so we elected for the smaller shop.
And I am so glad that we did. The guy we talked to managed to get me two lenses for the same price as the advertised lens. So, rather than just get the 18 - 135 mm lens, I got the 18 - 55mm and the 70 - 300mm - it is SO cool being able to see so far. I can take clear pictures of the license plates of the cars driving along a block away (and up the hill - otherwise, it would be difficult to see that street.
I love my new camera! We are going out today to take pictures - probably to the beach - Yay!
I'll post some pictures once I have something other than extreme close-ups of my cat and garden :P
