New Camera

We went out on Saturday to try an new 'ribs' restaurant a lot of people have been raving about - only to find they don't open on Saturdays!!! This is why Perth has so much press about being a boring city. How can so many of the restaurants and shops in the city center justify closing on weekends. No wonder the city is so empty.

Anyway, partially to cheer myself up (I was really looking forward to some ribs), and partially because I've been thinking about it for ages - I bought a new Camera. It's a Canon EOS 40D. My old Canon was having a few problem (flash doesn't raise, button sometimes sticks) plus it's now getting quite old. The old EOS 350D is considered an entry level amateur camera (or it was, they don't make that model now). The new 40D is considered an entry level professional camera. The difference really shows, it feels really solidly built, and is SOooo fast. I also wanted to get it before we have our main holiday this year (time and destination now yet available) - so I can take lots of pictures.
