I really am a bit of a psycho. It's a little annoying. And has nothing to do with this post, just a random observation. So actually I'm writing because I am shopping for a camera. Target has one on sale this week for 139$ which is totally in my price range. Usually I use my mom's camera, but Grace decided that it would be fun to dip it in the bathtub while the bathtub was full of water. Yup. She's a genius. So we're pretty sure it, the camera, bit the dust. So Sunday morning I was looking at the adds in the paper and there was the jolliness of the camera sitting there saying "Ashley buy me, buy me!" So I looked at all the other electronic-y adds and didn't see anything that looked to be as good a value. It's a Kodak with 10. something (I forgot) Megapixles. Does anyone know if this is a decent-ish camera? I'm not looking for anything pro status, but I'd like my pictures to look like I put some thought and effort into them. I'll probably go buy it tomorrow night, or at least look at it. It would be nice to have my own camera again.
I hope everyone had a really wonderful weekend. I did, though it went by too fast. Saturday was a ton of fun and I learned that an all-you-can-eat-dessert-buffet is no place for me. I had WAAAAAAAAAY too much sugar and ended up acting drunk the rest of the night. It did make for a rather hilarious Facebook video. My voice sounds really weird and low and tired, and I'm acting like a four year old, so mostly it's very accurate. Speaking of Facebook videos. I think it's at 2:08 mins that you should watch this. It's brilliant. Nice job Eric. But don't listen to the rest. It's a song I wrote, and well it's not amazing. So skip that, just watch the end. I tried to make this video about 30 times (actually it was only three times).
Alrighty I'm off to search for creditor addresses... My job is a barrel of monkeys.
from the mom of the crazy camera girl. do NOT buy a KODAK....cannon, sony, olympus are all much better in quality. She says the Kodaks are returned more than any other brand. she also says to stay away from panasonic.
ReplyDeleteI don't know anything about Kodak--Canon and Nikon have better reputations. 10 megapixels is good though...maybe you can test it.
ReplyDeleteyeah, don't buy a Kodak unless you reeaaaally have to or you don't mind a crappy camera that takes "decent" pictures. i had a Kodak, it was cool until i tried zooming in and then the picture would become blurry once i put it on my computer. but 10.-something megapixels? i don't know, i have a Nikon that is 6.0 megapixels and it takes nice photos, so maybe it's 10.-something-else...unless it IS megapixels, then go for it at that price. good deal, even though it's not the best camera brand in the universe. :P
ReplyDeletebut yea, if you can, invest in a Nikon, they're my favorite and if you get it from best buy they come with a warranty and you can get insurance for it if grace decides to go swimming with it once more.
I do like "And Both Were Young." I've read every book Madeleine L'Engle ever wrote and now I'm working on some written about her. :) I think my favorite is "A Small Rain..." because I'm such a Katherine...
