ALL RIGHT!!



I got it! I'm so excited!! Here's my new "toy". Canon Power Shot S5IS--8.0MP, 12X optical zoom. My first digital was a Canon Power Shot A80, 4.0MP, with only a 3X zoom! I got it in the spring of '03, so it lasted me just a little under 5 years. I'm looking forward to some of the "up-grades"...especially the 12X zoom. Should have fun with that. Maybe I'll even learn to do video clips...
**Note after playing with it..Wow, it will do a video for up to 1 hr if you have enough memory card in! And, really easy to do too, even for a non-tech person like me! Now I'll probably be boring you all with pix of the cool stuff it does :*) OH!! That's right, I guess YOU DON'T HAVE TO READ MY BLOG IF YOU FIND IT BORING!!!! :*) SMILE! :*)

  1. Hey Maxine,

    Thanks for your note! I will take you up on your offer to help me through the blogger which is bogging my mind! I actually set it up through your headline, through Goggle. WEll, it is all set up, and now I can't get it to post my message, and it is LOST in cyber space! I will e mail you more via hotmail.

    COOL camera! I love photography! I have a Sony digital 7 pixal. I am quite unsure of my balance now while I look through a lens, so have to get over that!

    Take care!

    Love , Debbie

  6. Maxine,

    Nice to meet you "virtually." Looks like you live in Nebraska. I have cousins there--Ruth and Virgil Flaugh--but as it's a big state you may not have met them. (?)

    We have two Canon PowerShots now! (The second one for my daughter Rosannna's birthday.)

  9. Thanks so much for commenting on my blog ... I am very curious, too, who stops by. It was neat to meet someone in person just yesterday who said she read mine. Makes our world smaller somehow. I've enjoyed reading yours and look forward to more!
