We've waited a long time to take that leap into the world of SLR. Finally an awesome deal came around and we pounced on it. I eyeballed the camera for a couple of weeks and finally yesterday got a memory card for it and started playing with it.

I'm working on learning how to use it properly. It's going to take me some time (and probably a few sunny days!). But so far I am just thrilled and impressed with the image quality even on the Auto setting.

And for now, the kids are content to be my (definitely silly) models. :)
