Project 52: March 28

I finally got my new camera and I’m so excited and a little overwhelmed too. I chose a camera that would stretch me as a photographer. I wanted something that I could mess with manual controls to start learning more about ISO, aperture and those fun things. I decided I didn’t want to jump straight into a DSLR and overwhelm myself to the point I only kept the camera on auto mode.

I went into a local store to try out the camera’s after reading many reviews and narrowing it down to one camera. I was looking at the Canon S95 I read many great reviews on it and it did one thing that I knew I wanted took good low-light shots. Living in the Pacific NW this is a must, we rarely have good weather for those amazing shots and I do a lot of indoor photos of the boys.

I found out the store was price matching even online prices (from certain dealers).  I started playing with th G12 and debating buying a little larger camera with a little more omph. Then the sales person also pointed out a new camera for me to look at it was the newest Nikon point and shoot. I forget the name because after reading the very few reviews I decided it was not for me.

I discussed the G12 and the S95 with my husband and we went back to play with them a little more. After handling them I decided on the G12, I felt like I would be more likely to learn all those dials with them right there. I went up to the sales person and they had none in stock, grrr. They offered me 5% off the display model but it had been on the floor for months. The salesman mentioned the Nikon P7000 was the comparable Nikon camera but was a little more.

I played with it and found the images were even better than the G12. I pulled it up on Amazon just hoping they may have it in my price range and wouldn’t you know they had it on sale $140 off making it less than the G12 and the S95! We went to lunch so I could think about my options and read the reviews.

So after such a long story I ended up getting the Nikon P7000 and I’m very excited about it. And now for my photo this week:

P52: Past N Present

I was hoping to do a full body shot this week to use for my pre-weight loss photo but hubby put my tripod somewhere and it’s pretty hard to do a full photo of yourself without one. So I pulled out a photo from our beach trip this last week and found two shots from the past that matched and made a collage.

P52: Green

As I was trying to get my shot I realized my limitations with my broken camera. So I pulled out my Galaxy Tab to try and use one of great camera apps out there.

I used the android app Vignette the demo version to do my photos this week. I actually have two photos this week.

My first photo I used the Highlight Green filter. Which created a black and white photo highlighting the green. I did then use Picnik to intensify the green.

Green1

The second photo I used the Toy Camera Cross Processing Filter. I only used Picnik to crop this picture.

Green2

Obviously both these images are pretty small I suspect this may be because I am using the demo version. This may be one of the first apps I buy for my tab, the option choices with this app are pretty amazing.

Project 52: Hidden

Well, my camera is broken more than I thought. We went to play group and that’s when I figured it out, my focus doesn’t work and my flash is gone also.  I can kind of take photos but not the best. Now I’m in the market for a new camera.

Hubby was sweet he offered to buy me a DSLR but then when he found out the price he said I could have a DSLR or we could get the new mattress we have been needing forever. I chose the mattress.

This weeks theme was hidden, I had a few shots to take from this theme, but nothing great due to the no focus issue. But the one that I ended up liking the best was this one which is more of a twist, it’s more of hiding in the shadows.
