Accessories.
Jan. 16th, 2008 11:02 pmI just ordered another lens cap for my (very) old Olympus C-740 UltraZoom. The one we had for it broke a few years ago, and we never replaced it. I'm torn between selling that camera or giving it to A.J. as a starter digicam. Jack received a small digital camera for his birthday - a Pirates of the Caribbean one. It's not great quality, but it's good for him. Giving the old Olympus to A.J. would be a considerable step up, but after all, he's older.
I also just ordered a 15mm eyepiece extender for the new Canon Rebel XTi. Even with screen protectors over the LCD, I don't like getting "nose prints" on them, and I'm anxious put a bit more space between my huge nose and the viewfinder. In addition, a Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II lens is on the way, as well as another UV filter. The camera bag is getting quite hefty! Unfortunately, my circular polarizer filter arrived in pieces, so I need to call about getting it replaced (but I keep forgetting during the daytime).
Everything for the Canon PowerShot S2 IS is still in good condition. It's crazy to think that we have four digital cameras in one house!
Edited to add: Yes, I know that I haven't yet posted any pics from the new cam. I've taken some, but I've not done much learning yet, and there is quite the curve for the Rebel for me. I promise I will post some eventually...
