New Camera

So, most of you know that Carl is way into camera's and has this huge brick of a camera. It's actually a fairly nice camera that we both enjoy, although Carl enjoys it more than I do. The only problem is, it's not very portable. It has a big bag and lenses and a tripod and lots of more stuff that Carl could tell you about.
Well, I'm going to Utah in about a week and a half (Yippee!!) and really didn't want to take that camera with me but still really wanted a camera. I thought about it and finally approached Carl with the idea of buying a little point and shoot camera. It would be very nice to have a little one for trips to like Disney World or for when I just go someplace of for visiting with friends. He agreed and we started looking.

After much research and looking at Best Buy, Target, 2 Wal-marts, Circuit City, and attempting Staples, this is the camera we got:

It's 8.1 megapixels and has a 5x optical zoom. It also has cool features like face detection, image stabilization, and a bunch of other cool features. I'm very excited for it, although this means that you will now have to look at more pictures. Here's some pictures we took while playing with our new camera!

Aren't we beautiful? This was playing with a setting that automatically takes a picture when it detects a smile....How do you think it did?
