New Camera

Since the digital era kicked in, we abandoned the SLR world, favoring p/s pocket cams and our HD video with miniDV tape. We kept humming and hawing... should we? The latest advances have full HD with frame rate selectivity on DSLR cams these days, with all sorts of power behind the stills. Add the fact that I can now mic up my SLR with full HD with selected frame rate, you get a powerful camera/vid cam. In fact, the mic jack, large sensor, and manual controls would be pricey on a stand alone vid cam. To get this on an SLR now is just silly. So, we hopped into that market today and immediately reminded ourselves of the wow factor of SLR with polarizer. Hard to believe we did the last 5 years with p/s cameras, but we were waiting for everything to come together. The learning curve goes way up now. 4 weeks to NZ. Start learning! Anyway, here's the first few shots from the first outing. Got the cam at 11:30 and first shots of fish at about 1. Not bad.  :)  Happy days are here again...
