Fun new toy!

We got a new camera! After months of research, and debate, and price comparison, we bit the bullet on the Canon Rebel XS camera. It is a digital SLR and it is GREAT!

We finally were getting to the point that Ellen was fast enough that we couldn't get good pictures and the quality wasn't as good as I wanted. There still is a lot to learn, and a good camera does not a good photographer make, but I'll get better with some practice.

Erik especially likes the "continuous shooting" mode on the camera.
