This is probably the most exciting thing that came to the office last week. I even had a little bit of an embarassing moment when it arrived, I was so excited that I hugged the package, and maybe did a little bit of a jig. Only to realize that my boss was back from lunch and was currently staring at me with a look of incredulity. So, I of course had to explain what it was and why I was hugging it so damn hard.
Awkward.
Anyways, on to the actual purchase. I posted a tweet about it, and I immediately took it out for a spin. *cough Spadina House* I love it so much. But here’s what you all want to see, pictures!
I made the *splurge* and got the Canon EOS SL1 digital camera. It’s the smallest body of the EOS family, and for me that was perfect. I had borrowed a friend’s Canon T3i while we were away in Boston, and I found that after a day of lugging it around my neck, that’s exactly what it became – lugging. My neck hurt, and it was just uncomfortable. And as I’d like to take my camera mobile, I figured that size and weight should be a major player in my decision. Nicely, it’s compatible with all of the lenses that Canon carries, so I can eventually mix and match [when I have the money to buy a different one].
