I took some cool pictures with my new camera. I love it! It gives me everything that SLR does and more.

Flickr improvements, new camera, etc.

Looks like I can finally stop cross-posting pictures and videos to Flickr, Vox and YouTube, because Flickr can now host videos and communicate with Vox directly.

My new camera has arrived and it is awesome! It lets me do everything I wanted out of an SLR and more. SLRs don't take HD-quality videos, nor do they have easy-to-use scene modes for those times when I don't feel like messing with the settings.

Miriam always looks very serious when she is busy with a toy.

New camera

It is time to replace my aging Canon Rebel dSLR. After careful research I ordered a Panasonic Lumix FZ50 (aka Leica V-LUX-1). We already have a small point and shoot Lumix that works great and I am expecting nothing but excellence from the new camera.

The FZ50 is not SLR. It is a modern point-and-shoot with 12x optical zoom. It does have a smaller sensor than a modern SLR would and I do expect pictures in poor lighting and at higher ISOs to degrade in quality. However, the FZ50 is a well researched compromise for me. I wanted my new camera to be lightweight, have good image stabilization, take videos, and be usable with just one hand. As a bonus the FZ50 will have a swiveling LCD!

I should be receiving it today according to UPS.
