With a Rebel Yell

She cried, "more? more? more?"

So Kari got me a digital Rebel xsi for Christmas. For those of you who don't know what that is - it's a 12 megapixel digital SLR camera made by Canon.

I love taking photos. I love documenting life. And I've always said, that you should always have a camera to do just that. So it was an excellent gift.

Before yesterday, my "life documenting" camera was a 6 year old Sony DSC-F717. It was digital, 5 megapixels, fully manual, and you could attach lenses to it. So it was basically a Digital SLR wannabe. I even had it all outfitted with a remote, flash, tripod, fisheye lens, etc. And the thing was a freakin tank.

It's been soaked with blood after skidding through alleys with me. It's had beer poured in and all over it. It's been hit by skateboards, dropped, etc. That camera has been through, and seen a lot.

But now, now that I've got this fancy new Canon, I've gotta start all over again. I need to rebuild all my accessories, but this time for a real, live SLR camera. It's going to be awesome.... and expensive.

I wonder if Kari knows what she has gotten us into.
