Meet Cammie
Meet Cammie. Isn’t she lovely? She’s a Canon Powershot A70. Compact, heavy (it’s all those damned 4 AA batteries), kinda flimsy construction, has a major engineering flaw (sand could get into the side lens, causing it not to retract and gives you an error. Thankfully, nothing I can’t fix.), but supposedly the best point and shooter out there. I like it because of the manual options - you can manually focus, change exposure, aperture. Lots of things I can’t do on a traditional cam.
This one’s on auto focus - there’s only one problem. I took it with a mirror, so when the auto-focus beam hit the camera, it’s focusing on the mirror. So anything you take from a mirror is bound to be a bit blurry. Just a tad.
Yes, I name all my electronics. At least, as far as my "follow-me-around" stuff goes. I call my PDA "Palmmie" and my camera "Cammie". Not too creative, but if I call it "snooklebuns" people will think I’m weird.
