Camera

Since our Harmony cruise my camera has not been working quite right. It had a brief encounter with a Lemon Drop Martini and things have never been quite the same! I checked into getting it cleaned but sadly Sony charges a minimum of $300 to even look at it. Camera shops are obligated to send it to Sony as well. SO - I can get a new camera for less than that, which is what I did. I just hate choosing. I  want "simple" with a point and  shoot but I also want major zooming capabilities and a good pixel count. Of course there isn't much time left to get a camera, figure it out, and be confident in shooting pictures since we leave soon. I compared Costco and Amazon and went with a Cannon this time. I've had Cannon cameras in the past and was very happy with them. Even though this last Sony came so highly rated it wasn't that special to me. Anyway, same day purchase and delivery from Amazon, what more could I want? Cons - The SD cards are small. When it came I was surprised how large the camera was. It won't be fitting in my purse like I usually plan on. Maybe John will carry it for me! Pros - It comes with an extra battery, which I usually buy separately. I have other SD, larger capacity, cards to use. It also has other accessories which, I may or may not use. It is easy to handle and operate while fitting nicely in the hand. I really like the SD adapter, which accommodates both the regular size and the mini. I will keep that in my travel laptop case (no card reader on that laptop). Anyway, all set in the camera department now!
