Default Got a new digital camera!! (What did you buy this week?)

Well, I recently sold my old Fujifilm 2600 2MP camera to my brother for $170 CDN with some extras, and I also got a $450 CDN tax return, so I decided to upgrade to a new digital camera. For $572 CDN ($434 USD) off of ebay, I was able to pick up a Pentax Optio S4, extra lithium battery, leather case, and 128mb SD card, plus it was overnight shipping, so I paid for it yesterday, and got it today .

This thing is just tiny , measuring just 3.3 x 2.0 x 0.8 inches, and weighing in at only 3.5 ounces, it's considered an ultra-compact camera.

- Small enough to fit in an Altoids tin
- 4 megapixels
- 3x optical zoom
- video recording with audio
- can serve as a voice recorder
- loaded with tons of features

Here are a few pics (stupid msn groups won't let me host pics from there to post on here - they work in my msn group, but won't post in here for some reason, and I'm too lazy to load them up on my shaw webspace, so here are some manufacturer/review pics)




It can hide behind a credit card!


The back of the unit


Look how tiny it is in one's hand...

I've only been playing around with this thing for about an hour or so (had to charge the lithium batteries and read the manual), but I am LOVING this thing so far...maybe I can actually put up some pics of myself/of my room for those other (old) threads

Make any major purchases this week?

I'll be buying myself a GC and Twin Snakes tomorrow as a birthday present to myself, but that's about it.

I saw that digi-cam on TV awhile back Brendon. It was one of the few upcoming items they show off on TechTV I believe, so it must be out now and pretty new. They showed that it fits in an Altoids tin and I was pretty impressed; nice purchase.
