Hey look, it's an entry dated Sunday, that was actually posted logical Sunday!
Keith's parental units took me out to Pamela's for breakfast today. Yummy yummy walnut banana hotcakes. Mmmmm. Thank you for yummyness!
So I ordered the camera yesterday. A Nikon D50. Yay nice dSLR cameras! Will arrive in a little less than 2 weeks.
Turns out ordering the camera from Amazon got me a free 20-page photo book (a $40 value) from Shutterfly, as well as 15 free prints. I need to look through my photos sometime in the next 30 days to choose photos for the book/prints. Anyone have any pictures I've taken that they really want printed? I'll charge you the shipping fee, but you'll get the picture free.
I'm pondering what to do with my Kodak now that it's dead. I cannibalized its parts to sell on misc.market (the dock, memory card, and battery are still fine). Thinking about dropping the camera body from architect's leap since Keith doesn't have any screwdrivers small enough to remove the screws to rip it up.
Heh, I think it's funny how I go through cameras so fast. This camera lasted over 2 years (bought it). With at least weekly usage. In high school, it was daily usage. That's actually pretty impressive.
*checks galleries*
I took over 48608 photos with it.
My parents paid about $500 for it (already had the memory cards).
That comes out to $0.010286 per picture. Heh, filmCameras--; digitalCameras++;
That's kinda funny how my new camera only cost about $70 more than this one... and it's so much better. And how my first good camera (the old Olympus) cost around $450 and was nowhere as good as the Kodak. And how my first camera (Intel create-and-share) cost around $150 and only took 640X480 resolution pictures and sucked. Cameras evolve really fast... it's like computers.
Wheee.
Tuesday is room draw. Blahhh. Tomorrow is class. Blaaaaaah.
