My New Toy

February 16th, 2009

I’ve been saying “my new toy” everywhere. LOL.

YES, I have finally bought myself a Canon EOS Rebel Xs, and at a really good price: $550.  Office Depot was having a sale for President’s Day, and I knew this was the moment to get it. I’m happy and excited. I can’t wait to start taking more photos. I also went out shopping for a camera bag, which I found at Best Buy. The camera fits a little snug in there, but that’s good. It won’t be slipping and sliding around inside. :rofl:

I haven’ been able to shoot any video yet, but I managed to get hold of Dustin yesterday afternoon. He said we could try and shoot some video today in the evening. So… we’ll see. Hopefully I’ll get the footage I need. Honestly, I don’t need that much. My professors told me that the assigned 5-minute requirement is just an arbitrary number, and that if I manage to get the point across with 2 or 3 minutes… so be it.

Now, back to the camera! I had ALWAYS wanted to take a photo of myself holding a D-SLR camera. I know it’s cliche, but as I said on my deviantart account… I don’t give a fuck. Mwahaha. Here it is:

AND, here are some sample shots I took in my backyard yesterday:

The above three images are unaltered… meaning THAT is how they look straight out of the camera. Pretty amazing, eh? hehe. The photo of me has color adjustments, some spot-treatment, etc.

Man, I’m tired. I need to get to bed. I need to wake up in 6 hours. Bleh. Ciao, everyone.

P.S.
I don’t know if you’ll even read this, but I love you, Audi.
