So I ordered a camera today … and it’s not a Canon. I got this<\/a>. Now before you ask what I’m thinking, let me explain.<\/p>\n

Joe and I were talking the other day and he was saying how he wouldn’t care if I bought the Canon 10D right now. But then I was thinking … there’s not much to photograph during the Winter in Chicago, so why get something that powerful and not be able to really test it? So I decided to wait until just before Spring to buy it. Hopefully by then either Canon will have released something even better, or the price will have done down.<\/p>\n

I’m surprised how antsy Joe is to get his hands on my Nikon 5700, but I think it’s awesome. I know it’s the true reason he sees nothing of dropping $1500+ for another camera. He’s tired of the 885 and who can blame him?<\/p>\n

Oh and the reason I got the low-end Nikon – I’ve been wanting a camera I can carry around all the time and not worry about. Something small and relatively cheap that I wouldn’t die over if it was lost or damaged. After seeing the Coolpix 2100 at Target and realizing how tiny it was, I had to have it. So I ordered it today, along with the battery\/charger\/camera case kit. My grand total, including shipping, was only $207. Sweet.<\/p>\n

And to those that suggested the Canon Rebel … thanks but no thanks. I’m definitely getting the 10D or it’s predecessor. After reading the reviews and seeing sample photos, nothing else can compare.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
