You never know until you explore

My blog has been quiet for a while. Can't blame dad being lazy as our camera was broken. Canon E18, a well-known error which bugged so many people. As an Engineer, dad made a nice try to fix it once. But he couldn't fix it twice.

Dad decided to upgrade our camera to SLR. Unlike point-shoot cameras, SLRs need user to be more educated on camera. In other word from dad'd mouth, it takes time to figure out what you really need. A game most of us play every day about balancing cost and performance. Mom certainly can't bear the idea that I have no pictures for a while. We ended up with having an 'temporary camera', or you can call it 'secondary camera', a cheap one which fits its name.

The following picture was taken in Gymboree with so-so lighting. It is a whole lot better than our old camera, tahnks to IS technology. The movie mode was much more superior to the old one, which even makes us think who needs camcoders any more. This is all done by a camera which costs $179.

Even E18 doesn't exist, our 4M 3X old canon powershot should be collected as an antic a while back ago. You wouldn't know it until you explore. This doesn't just happen for cameras.
