Back in the saddle
Well, it seems I could survive for a full seven days without a camera. How I lasted that long I have no idea. So, after consulting with my good friend Collabi, I decided that Canon’s Digital Kiss was an overkill and may have been more trouble fiddling with than it was worth (+$1000). I instead went with the much-praised entry to their “high-end” line, the Powershot S-50. Over 30 different visual modes, manual aperture, focus, priority, etc., etc. for me to screw around with. I’m already on page 38 of the 186 page (downloaded) English manual. Kind of like the microKORG, which employs a similar gargantuan PDF tome.
Here’s my second shot with the deal. The little baby links to a half-size (yes, 1400×1050 is half-size) JPEG version. uhhhuhuhuhuh…
