I LOVE to take photos.
LOL, my husband says I think everything is a photo-op.
He is right. ;)
I like to document lots of things. Not to mention I had to take great shots of my products to use in my shop.
I finally took the plunge in
April of 2009 and bought a DSLR camera. At the time, I decided to purchase a Sony one. Not typically a popular choice in DSLR cameras. Most people choose Nikon or Cannon when buying DSLR's. I was upgrading from the film Minolta SLR I bought in 2001 after my son was born. I absolutely LOVED my Minolta. I also had an extra telephoto lens for it and didn't want to start from scratch. What I found out was Sony purchased Minolta and most of Minolta's old glass lenses work on my camera. That is the main reason I purchased my Sony. I love my Sony camera.
PS- you can find some really old sweet Minolta glass lenses on ebay for my camera. ;)
Anywho, I bought myself a present last Friday and it arrived today. I decided to upgrade my camera base. Isn't it pretty?
With how much technology has changed, over the last few years, this Sony A65 is a HUGE difference over my Sony A200. It is going to take some getting used to. They have moved around alot of functions I use all the time. Not to mention there are so many new neat things this camera can do. Hello, I can take video's with my new camera now. Super cool!
If you are interested in finding out more about the Sony A65 (which is actually a SLT
(Single-Lens Translucent) not a DSLR
(digital single-lens reflex) because the mirror does not snap up when taking a photo like in a DSLR) you can watch this awesome video made by B&H Photo.
Off to go take lots of pictures. :)
PS- I do carry my camera with me all the time. I use
this small travel backpack camera bag made by tamrac.
What kind of camera do you have?
