Ah digital photography, what an age to live in! Although I said I would prefer a single device that was a video camera, still camera, phone, music player, games machine, note taker, etc. well, it just ain’t happening yet.
Even the vaunted Sony PSP isn’t a phone. And doesn’t have a camera, despite the “photo” icon used in the ads (it can display photos, it can’t capture them).
So, with a new baby in da house, the time seemed right for a digital still camera. And it has a self portrait mode. Complete with flash. Surprise Ben!
Unfortunately due to a strange rattle in the camera, we will be returning it tomorrow. Hopefully Kmart have another in stock we can bring home, coz it was fun for the couple of minutes before I packed it all back in the box 🙂
and I know everyone wants more photos of Emma…
This post was brought to you by the magic of Picasa, a great tool for managing photos on your computer, and Flickr, a great tool for managing your photos on the Internet. Try ’em out—they both integrate with Blogger 😉

Ahh, did you get the one you were telling me about? And boo to strange rattles inside the camera. I hope they have another one in-stock. 🙂
doh—the replacement has exactly the same rattle! What’s going on!?
Kmart said all the cameras make that sound. Hope they didn’t base this conclusion by testing the camera we returned earlier—but the camera seems to work otherwise. Doesn’t recognise the memory card very well though… need to pop it out and back in every time!
well, all seems to be working and you can check out pictures of Emma because of it 🙂
