A little more history...


^FZ8^



Alright, before we get some brand new pics on here, i wanna give a long boring speech about, well me as a dig camera geek. (if you hate long boring speeches, then don't continue reading :P)

Well, i have had 3 digs:



  • A cheap mijer DXG thing ($79.99)

  • Kodak Z700 ($21.50 - retail, $200)

  • Panasonic lumix fz8 ($155 - retail $350)

Yeah, im on my third, and obviously, best. I got an outstanding deal on ebay for it, like half price. Back to the history: I got my first one (dxg), i was like OVERJOYED to actually have a digital camera (oh the shame...). I dropped it like 3 days after i got it lol. It was totaled. I still have it somewhere, i bet i can get it to work again-if i wanted to. I used it for a while after that.


Then i bought the kodak z700 after saving up for what felt like years. It served me well, as you can see it took great pictures. (the possem one in the tree was not taken with this camera, but with a different kodak camera [not mine] ) I got tired of it's poor battery life though, it would died after taking like 15 pictures when the tiny lcd was on.


I kept saving up money to buy a new one, but instead i always bought somthing else. This went on for a while. Once i got around to buying one I, well did. And so far it has been great.


It has:



  • 2 1/2 inch lcd

  • 3 pics per second burst mode

  • 12X optical zoom

  • tons of other stuff

So the pics you are gonna see in upcoming days will be from this camera.


Well thats about it, thanks for sticking with me in there, if you did.
