After much thinking...

After much thinking like more than a year I finally bought a DSLR. I read all the reviews for the Sony Alpha 100 which did quite well but had a few short comings. I waited for Sony to release there Pro model the 700 which also came with a Pro price. I watched as they came out with live view for their next generation DSLR's. But in the end the 200 seemed to fit my needs. I saved enough money by not buying the 700 to buy a nice lens soon. Digital Camera Review just completed a review of the kit lenses which comes with my purchase which said good lens to learn with, than upgrade. Something I plan on doing. So off to open the box to make sure there really is a camera in their. Later....

Spring is coming

Spring is here which means the REI dividend check arrived in the mail last week. With the great 20% off coupon and my dividend it only cost $14.00 to get the new day pack I have had my eye on for at least six months. The weather is also been getting warmer lately meaning no more winter bike riding gear. And the trees in the neighborhood are starting to bloom. Still working on that new DSLR. I thought Best Buy had a great price on the one I have been thinking about but turned out it was no better than the price at Sony.com. I think now I will wait until the Sony Alpha 300 with live view is available and than buy.

Off for a bike ride:)
