At the café.

We spent hours talking in the café in the late afternoon today. Tonya and Nina tolerated me testing out my new camera.

And other electronic devices were used as well.

Lee: It's a Nikon D50, and I'm using it on automatic. I need to read more of the manual. I always end up turning down the exposure in iPhoto. The cemetery pictures today and yesterday are also with the new camera. Glad you can see the difference. The main thing for me is to be able to look through the lens!

You can definitely tell a difference between pics taken with the new camera versus the old. They look great. Have fun with the new toy!

Lee: I just bought the cheapest SLR, though. My main frustration was not being able to look through the lens on my old digital camera. If it looked greenish, it was probably the way I tweaked it in the computer, rather than the camera. I have Photoshp Effects, but have trouble seeing why I should bother with it, being so used to iPhoto.

What? No compliments about the pretty ladies?

Jonathan: I've kept the smaller camera just to have around all the time. The new camera is much bigger, so it is more of a special occasion camera.

Watching Ann work the camera yesterday was a complete commercial for the Nikon. Just the idea of taking fifty photos in ten seconds set me thinking that it's worth skipping meals to save up for this baby.
Tonya: shame on you for the blatant fishing. I would have done it more subtly like: why the hell is everyone focusing on the camera instead of the two foxy colleagues??
