I love it already . I've never had anything even vaguely as high-tech as this to take pictures/movies with before, so it's a big deal for me. I'm still learning how to use it, but here's a pic and a movie I've taken with it:

I'm sure you could put a soundtrack to that Cat Harassment video.

Thank you . That's actually the minimum movie detail, it can take them at high quality 640x400 if you've got a pro memory stick, low quality 640x400 with the standard one. The picture, of course, is 4x smaller and more compressed than the camera takes it .

Some other pics--

My book collection

My desk

I think it was worth the $175. My parents will undoubtedly agree after they see the quality difference between these and 'standard' photos for family pictures.

Yeah, you better keep him locked up at night.

WHAT! No dune book, you should be ashamed Mouse

For those who havent read/watched the mini series i recommend it. The book however, is quite good.

I've read the book and watched the miniseries, actually . I don't generally like Frank Herbert's work, but the book was fairly good. I enjoyed the miniseries.

Get rid of some of those icons from your desktop -_-
Always thought of you to be more organized than that!

Anyways, nice camera

Yeah I got the model I'd mentioned. Er, my parents got it. Not like it was my money . It's a fantastic camera, it can do pretty much everything!

Those shelves are my respite from science and debate . You have a point about Asimov being there though. I don't actually read his stuff much at all. It depresses me too much.

Yeah, that was a particularly bad period for my desktop. I'm all organized again now-- See! Thanks .
