kungfupolarbear and I were talking about what camera she was thinking of getting (Canon PowerShot S3IS), I saw the review and it can take video at 640×480 and 30fps. I was thinking of putting the $250 of gift vouchers I got for Christmas for JB Hi-fi towards a video camera for taking decent videos of Lily, but then decided to go down to the Mall and see if they had the S3. They didn’t, but apparently that camera is about three or four years old now, and they had the S5IS instead. With the gift vouchers (and $50 off the RRP because the last model they had was the one on display) I got that plus a 4GB SD card for $406. 😀😀
I’m now busy taking photos of EVERYTHING.
The first one doesn’t look that impressive, but it’s zoomed all the way in and I was sitting in my computer chair in the opposite corner of the room. And with no tripod or anything, it was just me holding it! The second two were taken from my room, looking out the window. The camera didn’t move for the second shot, it’s just zoomed all the way in (12x).
