Finally got a camera...any good?


Well got an open box from Circuit City display model camera today. It is a Kodak Easyshare C643. Lemme see 6.1 Megapixel with 5X Digital Zoom and a 2.4" color screen.

It was 99 bucks. This will be a lot better than disposables but still missing my Canon Elura fancy CCD/Camera that I won winning the FedEx shipping challenge. That evil chick that took all my stuff on the mountain stole it too.

Lemme figure out how to work this contraption and start posting on the AM threads again.

For that price it's a great cam.

I remember spending $250 for my 3 year old 2MP cam.

Yeah yeah it has that too. Sheeshus Mr. Techman give me a minute to figure this dang contraption out. It has 3 x 5 for a total of 15 zoom and internet price is $ 250 with my open box deal 100 bucks.

I will be taking pictures of my gorgeous new neighbors and dinner companions tomorrow and over the weekend and will see how it goes.

Blitz cleaned up well nice for a moose terrier and got every last little bit of the Beemer back in place to factory spec with the exception of my snow and ice tires fitted in a 45 series which is not quite right. Eight and nine and a half inch by eighteen rims with other tires will be my summer set. The only big problem was traced to our AM radio stations using a transmitter which consists of a AA battery and a crystal with some 14 AWG solid strand wire wrapped around a nail for a transmitter.

Pics on Saturday and you OFR's better keep your nitroglycerin pills handy.
