A Camera for the Trip

Yeah I know my blogging sucks. Excuses, busy, school......


Anyway I recently picked up a camera for my trip !!! I have been wanting a digital camera for a while, and finally decided on one. It is the Canon S3 IS, it is an ultra-zoom point and shoot, and is considered the next best thing to a DSLR, or a camera that allows you to change lenses.


I like the camera alot, it has swivel screen as you can see in the picture. I like the swivel screen as it allows you to shoot at many angles, and when you close it the screen is not exposed and that means less scratches. The Camera also has a strong zoom for its size 432mm zoom on a traditional film camera (that's alot). There are also macro or extreme close-up features and manual zoom as well.


In short I really like it, and as it can shoot pictures that can be printed at a 11x13 size, if I take an really nice pictures they can be framed for really nice decorations. I also picked up a 2gb memory card wich can store 1500 pictures, which is pretty sweet as well.


If you would like to read further about my camera check out the reviews here, and here.
