Back around Christmas 2000, I spent 750 on a Canon Powershot S20 3.1mp digital camera.
Since then, I've collected some CF cards, a CF card reader, my brother's battery charger (he had an S10), etc.
Today, as a spur of the moment decision, I bought a Kodak C360 5.3mp digital camera for $230. Bought a 512mb SD card for it as well.
I wanted a camera that could use SD cards, as my laptop has an SD card reader. I also wanted a camera that could use AA batteries.
I'm going to give my old Canon to my girlfriend as an early anniversary/christmas present. She's been wanting one since we met, but didn't have the money to buy one. She prefers the manual focus cameras...of which the digital variant are prohibitively expensive. I figure I'll give her the od camera, the battery charger & rechargable batteries, the 16mb and 1 64mb CF cards.
I've put the othe 64mb, 256mb, and CF reader up on the FS/FT. her laptop has a CF reader, and since she's not running XP x64, the software for the Camera will work fine in any other computer
So...besides the brownie points with her and twice the capacity (and 2 more megapixels)...how'd I do?
