I just think my old Sony Cybershot digital camera is begging to be replaced now. It’s still in good condition but I’ve been using it since 2008 and although my husband gave me a new Fujifilm S1800 for my blogging needs, I kinda find it a little too bulky. It has a huge zoom so I always need to carry a bag if I wanna have it with me. This made me realize slr cameras aren’t really for me. While I acknowledge that they do take superb photos and I’m dreaming of one day owning one, but for my blogging needs I want an extra feature packed digital camera. Preferably one that is easy to carry around so I won’t miss events and scenes I wanna blog about..

So I think that would be one of my purchases soon. A handy blogging camera. After hours, yes hours spent browsing different online shops for new camera models, here’s my shortlist..

Samsung – MV800 16.2-Megapixel Digital Camera – Black – $249 at Best Buy. – This one is sooo cool looking. I’m tempted, sooo tempted.

Samsung 16.2 MP Digital Camera

Canon – PowerShot A3300 IS 16.0-Megapixel Digital Camera – Silver – $108.99 at Best Buy.

Canon Powershot A3300 Digital Camera

Sony – Cyber-shot 16.1-Megapixel Digital Camera – Red – $199.99 at Best Buy.

Challenge and Reward..

Posted in Girl Talk | 2 comments

How’s my ongoing weight loss and diet faring? Hmmmm, I’m getting pretty desperate here and with my family intent on making me fail in my goal to be a bit thinner and they make it a point to tempt me with really really good food, well its hard.

Anyway, I’ve decided to change tactics and instead of just dieting and exercising, I’ve decided to set something like a goal and reward myself when I achieve that goal. My current goal is at least to be consistent with diet and exercise and if I could do that for three consecutive months I’m rewarding myself with a gadget I’ve been wanting to have. I’ve been checking out digital camera reviews coz I’m thinking of getting a new digital camera that is not so bulky. One I could take anywhere with me, small enough to slip into my pocket or a pouch bag and not so expensive, just perfect for taking photos I’ll be featuring on my blogs.

I’m currently using a 10 megapixel Sony Cybershot digicam and I love it to pieces but there are times I find it a bit bulky to sport around like when I’m just going to the market. I know some might find it weird that I need to have a digital camera with me but I am serious when I say that a handy digital camera is a necessity if you are a blogger. Photos makes blogs all the more interesting not to mention the crowd it brings. Almost half of my site visitors for my other blogs find me from searching for images!

Anyway, I really hope I would not break the exercising habit coz at least now I’ve been consistent with it for the past month. Two more months to go.. =) And I’m looking forward to rewarding myself..
