My new Toy!

For a long time I have wanted a new camera, but just didnt have the real push to get one.

I have had my little digital camera for 4 years when I went on my study abroad.

It has been a great convenient camera, but I wanted a nice one that takes fast, clear pictures.

Especially now that we are having a baby. Plus Ben and Rice are impossible to take pictures of because Ben will only smile for like 2 seconds and Rice will only look at you for 1!

So I needed a point and shoot that didnt have delays.
So for my Christmas present from my parents,they told me to get a camera.

How could I say no to that!!!

My sis in law Jen and mother in law helped me camera shop over Thanksgiving break.

I didnt really want a huge professional camera becuase I just didnt want to drag it around.

So finding a smaller camera that had the same kind of quality seemed rare.

But while we were looking Jen found my perfect camera!

 

 

Its a Sony Alpha Nex 5n.

It looks like a digital only bigger and the lense doesnt go inside the camera.

It has so many different settings and the response time is super super fast!

So now I can actually get pictures of Ben and Rice looking at me.

And I plan on taking thousands of pictures of Lily!

I still have yet to read the maual and figure out all the cool settings because

its like a foreign language to me...but if I can put together Lily's dresser(which was hell on earth)

 I can figure out how to use my high tech camera!

At first I didnt want to take it out of the box until Christmas...but I couldnt help myself and

just wanted to start playing with it. Plus I want it ready for when Lily comes.

My neice Lena was a great help and modeled wonderfully for me!

 

 

I didnt think to clean up her slobbery face...

but she is still SO CUTE!!!!!!!!

 

 

Sisters

 

These were mosty auto...but I was able to play with some settings.

I am excited to play with it some more and become a pro!

Dont worry...I am not planning on starting a mormon mom photography buisness!!!! LOL
