Remember the unsuitable camera that threw me into such a tailspin last August [I’m Baack: Precipitating Cause, saving throw]? Well it’s back.
I had asked my shipping department to perform pack and return services. He decided to keep the camera for himself. The suitably-sized one that I bought instead
does not have the different shooting modes [Towel]. The nasty, big one does.
I still find it oversized and overweight for a pocket camera. However, I can play with the buttons until I decide whether or not I wish to spring for a “real” camera.
Next Friday – pictures, finally, I hope.

I’m in a similar situation. I poured tea over my nice pocket-sized camera and now I have to use the big chunky one which doesn’t fit in my pocket. That’s why I’ve posted a lot of crappy iPhone photos recently. I’m watching out for a second hand one though.
I’ve been amazed at how well my phone does – in certain, limited shooting situations.
