some sad news

Hey Everyone,

Sorry I haven't posted in a while.

Firstly I had no tinterweb for 2 weeks (silly BT) so couldn't blog.

But also September was a pretty bad month.

For one reason my little bunny died.

Bertie was only 5 and a half.

The night before he was his normal self, bouncing around the living room, trying to snatch my pear, scratting my pjs and biting my Dad's jeans.

The next morning he was off his front legs. We rushed him to the vets but he died 15 minutes later.

It was just so unexpected and I was so upset for days. Even now I get teary eyed. :(

R.I.P Bertie Brierley

Within that time my new camera came. Unfortunately I wasn't able to get any pictures of Bertie which I was so mad about. But the weekend before Mick did take some pictures of him...

<3

To keep my mind off things I've been wandering around using my new camera.

The Canon SX30 IS Powershot.

Ted has been my main model and is getting far too much attention.

Love him loads!

Its decided

I've finally figured out what camera I want! (Woohoo)

Its the Canon PowerShot SX30 IS Digital Camera 

(14.1 MP, 35x Ultra Wide-angle Optical Zoom) 2.7 Inch Vari-angle Purecolor LCD

(images from http://www.ukdigitalcameras.co.uk)

The cheapest place I've found it to be is ukdigitalcameras for £299.99!

(Jessops sell its for £350 pffft)

I really wanted a camera with a flip lcd screen, HD recording and ofc good at taking pictures.

I've been reading up so much over these past few days and this camera ticks all boxes.

However there are all sorts of other little bits that need to be purchased too.

Hello Amazon.

I think that's all I can think of! If any of you think I've missed anything please let me know!

Camera

Hey Guys,

So I've wanted a shiny new camera for a while now.

I never took photography in school so I'm a bit of a noob.

I've been reading up and by hell they can get expensive.

I want one which is user friendly, won't break the bank and of course reliable.

I've heard that the Canon EOS 400D is quite a good one.

Also its better to buy the body and then purchase a lens separate since kit lenses can be a bit poo.

Oh and the Canon EOS 1000D 10.1 MP Digital SLR Camera - Black (Kit w/ Canon EOS 1000D 18mm-55mm Lens) is on Ebay is only £250!

So my question to you guys is what camera(s) do you recommend?

It would be great if you could help me out :]

Thanks
