I have never had a digital camara before, never even used one.
Well now I have one!!!
Anyone else this silly when you get a new gadget??? I can’t leave it alone.
I want to photograph everything, download it to my hard drive, erase them all and start all over again!!!
< skipping around like a school girl >
My mom got my dad one for christmas last year. It was way cool then, but I don’t like it as much now. I don’t know about the newer models, but the one that we have has horrible resolution once printed up. Is this the case for newer ones too?
I feel that way when I get a new power tool.YeeeHaaa…I’m gonna build me a…hmmmmm…
Kaz,
I got a 1.3 megapixel. Not ideal for print but since most of what I do is for the web, I am okay with it. I wasn’t willing to spend a grand on stuff for print.
Check out: http://computers.cnet.com/hardware/0-1078.html?tag=st.co.1016.dir.1078 for the latest reviews on digital camaras.
The higher end ones are 'sposedly pretty good for print.

I hadda look.
First, Chief, hehehehehe…
BTW, what rate? Highest I made was ABE3, but I did that in 1yr 9 months, so not too bad…

When I first got my digital camera I blew through two packs of batteries in two days. I was taking pictures of EVERYTHING. Enjoy!

i just bought the ibook i’m posting on last tuesday. i actually danced around the ups man. you should have seen his face, it was a sub. not the regular guy.
today my printer arrived, scared another ups sub. and the person he was training. i’m on a roll.
i don’t think the ibook has totally cooled down yet. i keep finding new nifty things. last night was the stickies, i just love them. tonight was ilisten. what fun.
has everyone around you gone camara shy yet?
Hehe I went with my dad to Home Depot today. You wouldn’t believe this man! He’s 55 and was actign liek a kid at Toys R Us! It was funny. He almost bought a big pipe for the sole purpose of showing his friend how big it was. He must have every tool ever made in every color and size. Even at the register he was snatchign all the impulse buys they sell. ‘Do you need purple paint?’ ‘Not now! But I might! It’s on sale!’
We have three of them.
Neither Baglady nor I are very good at delayed gratification so when we see a new toy we always seem to have one soon enough.
Our one complaint is that the first two Baglady bought we a little flimsy. The lens cover on both broke with relatively little provocation. Of course this just gave her a reason to buy a newer model (while fixing the previous one).
It is definitely a nifty toy, especially as I fall into that genetic pool of people unable to have film developed.
The handsome Mr. Obfusciatrist forgot to mention that we both have Handspring Visor Deluxe units. I’m also a bit of a Camelbak fanatic; I just bought another one for the upcoming Burning Man event out in Nevada. Since I’m volunteering as a Blak Rock Ranger and wanted to get seriously into their “wear khaki” theme, I got me a desert tan Camelbak.
…I’m pitiful. :wally
Yes, you are.
I am going crazy with this thing!!!
I did a self portrait though – please don’t laugh I am just getting used to this thing.

Someone please, stop me now.
I saw the title of this thread and immediately thought, “How long is THIS one…?”
And, DAMN, Techie… you’re beautiful.
Anyway, I’ve had my eye on digital cameras for a long time (those 4.3 megapixel ones make me drool), and I’m hoping to get my hands on a nifty one soon (I also like those Digital Elph’s).
And, if you’ve seen my brothers’ “I just got a GeForce II” thread, you’d know that the “Kid at Christmas” syndrome runs strongly in our family. Hell, when I got my Minidisc player/recorder (which, by the way, I recommend for EVERYone above those abominable Mp3 players), I ran around copying all my CDs to MD. It was quite a larf. I STILL love that thing.
I bought a canon A50 1.3 megapixel just after christmas last year. I love it, on the trip to maine, I bought a 48meg cartridge for it, can store 142 pictures, whooopieee!!!
Your dog is so cute!!!

What did you expect, a comment on the camera? Do you know who you’re talking to? That’s not gonna happen.

Thanks SPOOFE,
I was having fun tonight…nothing like a new tech toy do dink around with 
and sss, thank you. My dog is an older guy, needs to loose some wieght and has occasional asthma but he’s my baby.
I will never give up my Leica R4!! Never never never!
If only I could hook a device fitted with Leitz glass to a USB port.
Droooooool.
[Hijackification]
Does anyone know about alleged reports of digital backs existing for Leica R’s?
[/Hijackification]
I know exactly what you mean.
I resently bought me one too

Your dog looks so sweet.
Here’s a picture of my dog.

He’s sweet, but on this picture he looks a bit mean.
I think I’ll have to take aonouther one on him.
Anniz - oh, that’s a Mighty Fine dog! (I always get sappy around pets.) A really nice dog.
I got a USB CD-RW drive a few months ago. I’ve gone slightly INSANE burning CDs with it! And I got an iMac about 2 months. (It’s Blueberry. The flavor is important, you know.) And I just got a new drawing tablet for my PC (which I have not installed yet) and…and…
I totally understand the new “toy” syndrome. You just can’t resist, can you?
Tack(thanks) yosemitebabe.
I love my dog so much, he have helped me
when life have been hard.
A dog is really a persons best friend.
They are always there for you.
His name is Jack and he is 10 years old.
