it's HERE!

my new camera arrived today. i purchased used from adorama and i must say i am really impressed with how NEW it looks!

bottom line: i am in love! i am SO glad i decided to go with this camera! i am still figuring out all the settings. i wasn't able to play with it much today because ashton came down with a fever this morning and wouldn't nap in his crib. he insisted that i hold him.. for three hours. bless his little heart. nothing feels worse than having your baby not feel well. then the second david came home i thought i would be able to really play with my new camera, but all i wanted to do was take a nap. now it's too dark and ashton's in bed. i hope tomorrow he feels better and maybe i can really play with it.

i did get a few shots in. just real quick.

ashton eating cheerios. i didn't know how to work all the controls since the layout is a little different than the rebel. i just used AV mode and shot wide open (not the sharpest) ISO 400. photographers with full frames always tell you it's a different world with full frame. and it is. it feels RIGHT. with my 50mm it was like a whole new thing. i am really impressed with the results. i also shot a few test shots at ISO 1600 (the highest it goes) and i am REALLY impressed with the noise. much much much better than the rebel!

eek i hope tomorrow is a good day!

comparison shots, shot with david's point and shoot. i didn't want to mess up his settings so i just shot with whatever it was on. talk about bad. lol.

::sigh:: i love it!. ps. someday i am going to sand and restain that table. it looks horrible!
