meet my new baby

meet my new baby!
leica d-lux 4
Christmas came in early! I woke up early this morning to be right in front of B&H when it opened its doors, ran to the point&shoot counter, and ordered my new little toy. I wanted something simple, a little old-fashioned looking, easy enough to carry everywhere and use everyday. I could not resist the leather case to keep it warm and safe. "You're in luck!", the vendor said. "The camera price just dropped by close to $100 and the leather case dropped by $50". Cool!!! Christmas, I told you. Really. It cost me close to nothing. I won a little award at work and it was worth just slightly below my total purchase. Sweet!
So now, I'll have to learn how to use this thing. It looks a bit more complicated than that simple click on the iPhone. But hey, that's why I bought it. Woot!

HOORAY!!! Congrats! I love new gadgets. I'm still learning my little FlipVideo camcorder. Much to my dog, Matilda's, chagrin. :)

You must have got a big award, as that's a rather expensive camera. Hope you take some good pictures with it.
