Rocky watch me pull a moose out of my university - 20:40
 The Moose Sign at ANU (fullsize) |
From I distance I could have sworn this was a sign with a moose head and a cross through it. It was somewhat disappointing when I got closer and I realised it was some sign saying no busses or trucks past this point. It really would be far more interesting if the ANU had no Moose signs up around this Australian educational institution. |
Neato, new and shinier photos to come. - 14:33
So after much deliberation I finally decided to get a new digital camera
yesterday. Most of what I use a camera for is photos while doing events or
outdoors doing something, thus a small easily pocketed model is a good
thing. I notice often I have a lot of blue induced by shaking in my photos so
getting good image stabilisation in a compact camera was the plan. Also a
really short auto focus time and shutter release time was a good target. I was
pretty much settled on getting a Panasonic camera for a bunch of reasons. In
the end I decided on the Panasonic DMC LZ5 to replace my 3.5 year old Canon
PowerShot A60.
The camera was ordered yesterday from a mob in Adelaide, Camerastore.com.au and arrived at work in Canberra around an hour ago. More details and photos and stuff to come once some playing has happened. I am sure my sister will be happy as I intend to give her the old camera (she does not have a digital camera) and it is still a nice sturdy camera.
