Say Cheeeeeese!

So I had to get another new camera....

Not everyone knows my camera stories so I will make this really short. The first digital camera I bought was a 3 megapixel (which is what my phone has now) and was roughly $300. I put it in layaway at Wal-Mart for as long as they would keep it. I had a good run with that camera until it was stolen. Right out from under my nose! It was on the table one minute and the next it was gone :(

Camera numero dos was a christmas present from mom. It lasted until Easter. It still works. The screen is just shattered. Kind of defeats the purpose of a digital camera! I'm not pointing fingers, BUT when I took my memory card out to get pictures developed, the last image was of Audra taking a self portrait...

On to number 3. I told myself when I got my tax stimulus back I was going to get a camera. It had been a long year without one. I was dependent on others to make copies, upload, or burn cd's for me long enough! So Friday morning when that check was in my account, I was in Sears. Kodak has always been good to me so I picked one out. The price on the display was $169.99, which was in my range. When the man grabbed it from the back the tag on the box said $101.97! So I bought a 2GB card and the extended warranty.

Good thing.

The camera wouldn't charge, wouldn't transfer pictures...NOTHING! So I call my ex brother-in-law (because he is a genius and can explain things at my level) and NOTHING again! So the next day I get to work, check my email, and he sent me a link. 12 PAGES ON GOOGLE ABOUT HOW AWFUL MY CAMERA IS!!!!!! I just need it to get me through New Orleans, and I will do something about it when I get back. It died on Wednesday :(

So camera number 4 is red and I will keep you posted.
