Speedlaw's New Digicam and Mole in NYC!

Post by Speedlaw »

It was about time too! Kept harrassing my brothers for theirs- this will be much better...

Here's what I ordered:

All of these pics are stolen, unless otherwise stated ;-)

Only 22,9 mm thick (about an inch?) and roughly the size of a credit card. Still has the ability to zoom though, if I should ever need that. Now the search is on for a 256 Mb SD card. Hope there's still one left in the country- some logistical problems there. Anyway. Can't wait for Inters!

Woohoo!

Anyone else bringing their cameras?

Cool, there'll be lots of snapping then!

Fortunately, I've still got a couple of days to learn how to work the thing, to avoid looking like an idiot.

I hope the camera is as nice as it looks. I am slightly worried that my hands are too fat to press the buttons, but I can always ask the girlfriend if I'm too ham-fisted.

Nice Mole, excellent pics!

Those Crown Victoria's are Fords Full Size model and are nearing Cult status- there's people buying ex-cop cars (with performance/brakes/suspension upgrades) just for the fun of it. Lots of 'em on eBay Motors actually, P71 issue.

Nice new forum section btw!
