Default New camera - new photos

For the last 7 or 8 years I have used a Kodak DC210 digital camera that
has a whopping 1 megapixel and 2x zoom. I've wanted a new camera for the
last year or two but just couldn't find the one I wanted. Well, I
could....the new Nikon and Canon DSLRs would be nice, but still a little
pricey. Besides, I'm not sure I would know what to do with one.

But this year I found two cameras that interested me. One was an HP
camera with 5 megapixels and 10x optical zoom. The other is the
Panasonic Lumix FZ10 which has only 4 megapixels but 12x optical zoom.
Santa came to visit tonight and I came home with the Panasonic.

Of course I had to see what kind of pictures I could get from it and of
course that meant pictures of cats, right? Lacey was the only one
willing to stay awake long enough for me to take pictures but I'm very
happy with the pictures I've taken and the absolute ease of downloading
them. They were really large pictures which I resampled to 25% of the
original to make them a little more manageable. I've posted them to my
Yahoo photo album and invite you to take a look.

I suspect you'll get tired of seeing post from me about new pictures of
my three in the next few weeks, but then I have to practice somewhere,
right?

Hopefully the following link will work (this is the first time I've
tried to post a tiny url):

Lacey was looking a bit concerned about this camera business! Nice clarity
and depth.

She does look a little concerned, doesn't she? Thanks for the feedback on the
pictures. I've been sitting here comparing old photos to these new ones and
trying to decide if I made the right decision. Of course these were just shot
after a quick review of the manual. Hopefully as I learn how to use the camera
the pictures will get even better.

We can never have enough picturtes of cats, you should know that, Julie. (At
least that's what I keep telling myself...)

Lacey is beautiful, but does not seem to be very happy with your new camera.
Congrats on your new acquisition!

Wow, Lacey is one purrrty girl :-) Nice pictures!
The new camera made a huge difference with us. In July I went from a crappy
Sanyo 1 megapixel with no zoom to the Olympus C-750 with 4 megapixels and
10X zoom. What an improvement! I love having the zoom and the pictures are
so much crisper and clearer. Now I want to go back to Angkor Wat and take
all my old pictures over again!
I love my new camera soooo much. But unfortunately, so does Dennis and he's
taken it off to Burma with him so I'm stuck with the old camera until he
gets back :-(

Beautiful! In Lacey 5, it looks like she's saying "Get that camera out of my
face, mom!"
