I did get that new camera.  It’s small, very small, and packed with nice bells and whistles.

I’ll have pictures up tonight, possibly, but more likely tomorrow.  I have a little more ‘editing’ to do.  I took quite a few as well as video over the weekend.  I didn’t make it out to San Jacinto.  Had to meet with the grove.  And then, make it to the ship to attend to the 48 Girlscouts due at 6pm.  They were sweeties, mostly brownies there to spend the night on the ship and learn about knots and ship lore.

The videos I have suffer from not having a mic but, it works.  Unfortunately, I handed the camera over to someone else and he forgot that you don’t want to keep tilting a video camera like a still camera to better frame the picture.  So, I had to do a little editing to make it watchable.  lol!

Nice camera tho.  It’s a Canon with 12.1 Mpixels, HD video and about the size of a small cell phone.  I think it has more features than my old Canon A1 I had back when I graduated from high school.  Disadvantages are:  No interchangeable lenses, no mic as I mentioned before.  No variation in file format.  But.. it does do SD cards, and I have a reader on my computer and phone and hand held for those.  Needs blue tooth though.  It is small enough to fit in a pocket.  The charger finishes in around an hour and a half.  All good things for what I wanted it for and that being able to take good quality pictures on the fly.

Again, pictures forthcoming.
