A New Toy for Mummy

Posted on January 5, 2015August 6, 2016
For my Birthday Paul and the kids treated me to a new camera – I had picked it up from a blogging friend Elaine – Fun as a Gran.  I had decided to go down the second hand route because I was unsure just how much I would use the new one – I’m used to my phone camera for ease but wanted to try a proper one.
 
Over Christmas I didn’t get too much of a chance to use it and the eyefi card I asked for to go with it currently won’t connect so I’m awaiting support to get back to me tomorrow for another activation code.
 
For the time being I’m using the old fashioned way of getting them of the camera – I need to learn how to use this camera, that however won’t happen overnight as I just don’t have the time.
 
Here are my favourites taken so far:
 

 

I’ve a long way to go and a lot to learn but here’s to learning to capture some lovely shots of my family.

    What camera did you get? They are really good especially as phone cameras do it all for you!

      I keep telling myself it shouldn't be so difficult but it's definitely staying on auto for a while longer lol
