I got a new toy!!
« on: December 27, 2011, 03:40:42 PM »
Santa brought me my dream camera....a Canon rebel T2i plus 2 lenses.  Now I just get to figure out all the buttons and functions.   :-\  The owner's manual is bigger than the one that came with my car so there is going to be a huge learning curve, but it has been so much fun playing with so far!  Nobody or nothing is safe from me now. :evil:

I've spent two days retaking pictures trying to figure it all out and it is amazing!  Even with my limited knowledge of this camera, how much better they are coming out without a ton of editing!

Still have a lot to learn about the camera, but am having so much fun doing it!  One of the best parts has been being able to capture the kids at sports events without the blur.  Wrestling moves so fast and I never manage to get really good shots of the kids.

I tried taking pictures yesterday of 3 new bracelets.  I have photo envy.  Your pictures look so 3 dimensional.  I would let you see the ones I took, but I cannot find the cable to hook my camera up to my computer.  It is probably under some buttons or watch parts.

Thank you...I'm sure when you least expect it the cable will pop out at you...mine usually does.

Fantastic Kimberly... How do you like the camera?  My Daughter-inlaw wants a Canon EOS Rebel T3i 18 MP... I told her.. if anyone gets that camera... it will be me!!!  LOL 

Congrats... and I see it sure does take a clean, crisp picture! WTG!
