A New Toy

I got a new camera for my birthday recently! Actually, I got a gift card which I used on a new camera. The one I picked wasn't in stock, so Dylan just went to pick it up yesterday. It's a little Nikon CoolPix L110. Today it came out of its box! I haven't read the manual yet, but I couldn't wait to take it for a test drive. Our old digital camera is 8 years old, which is apparently like 80 in tech-years. It had to be set up on a tripod for all but the brightest outdoor scenarios. I wanted to see how this new one did under hand-held-crappy-light circumstances (as is the regular day-to-day state of things).  
So I snapped a bunch of random pics around The Cart. . .






They're not great yet, but already so much easier than our last dinosaur of a camera.
Yay for new toys!

  1. Which one did you get?
    Mine is getting to that stage too.
    I had anti shake with my sony and that worked nice, the minolta I got is nice since I can change the lens and great when we go on outdoor trips, but I shake too much now.

  4. How wonderful, Jo. But, er, you still took better pics with your dinosaur than I do with any camera of any age.
    Think of you often; many blessings to you

  5. YAY! So glad you got a nice new camera! I think the photos look terrific! I suspect I'm about due for a new one pretty soon! Holding out though - I'm afraid I'm one of those 'don't replace it till it croaks' kinda people. LOL!

  7. Hooray!! That old camera was terrible. I also thought it was hilarious that you were worried the Nikon CoolPix would require AA batteries. Like cameras use physical batteries anymore!! Hardy har.
