New Camera


So, as you know, Alex recently came back from Zambia. Unfortunately, he came back without the camera, which is why we haven't posted any pix. (He can tell the story sometime, and we do plan to get some from his teammates at some point.) The silver lining is that I got to pick out a new camera, and there's some really nice under-$200 digital cameras out there now. We picked an Olympus FE340, in pink. It's nice and slim, and my favorite thing about it is the "cuisine" setting. It's for still lifes in general, and you can see in the above photos what a difference it makes--the left one of the dressing bottle was taken using "cuisine" setting, the right one was just "auto." The other photos are of a berry smoothie we made this week, and a hummus/veggie pita I whipped up for a snack a couple days ago. I'm impressed with the clarity of the photos.
