New camera

Remember how I ruined our camera a few weeks ago? Well, I had been eyeing DSLR cameras for awhile and ruining our camera created the perfect opportunity to take that route. Also, it was good timing for our trip to NC. While I still know almost nothing about how to use it, I do know I like it because I can take pictures like this:


Notice, no red eye and clear! If I tried to take a picture this close with our old camera, it would have been a mess. I had a list of musts: 1) take the picture as soon as I hit the button 2) minimize fuzz and blurring 3) have good zooming capabilities 4) ability to take multiple shots quickly. We got a smokin' deal at Best Buy due to their price-matching program and Sean's salesman skills :) Now if I can just keep from ruining this one...

We ended up getting the Canon Rebel XS-- so far we love it! A good middle ground camera as far as SLR's go I think.
