Testing out the Panasonic Lumix ZS3
So I got myself a new point and shoot camera a week ago, and after extensive research I decided on a Panasonic Lumix ZS3. I originally wanted to get a Flip HD Mino for digital video goodness, but after reading many many many reviews I figured that I should just upgrade my point and shoot digital camera at the same time for a few more bucks with even better video quality at the same time.
So, I bought the camera through special order since it just came out and has a high demand their sold out everywhere. This weekend I got a chance to test out the camera and am somewhat confused on whether I should keep it or exchange it for a Canon SD780. Reason being, the Canon is about 3/4 the size, 1/2 the weight and Canon pictures are supposed be a lot more vivid and also has more features on the camera itself. BUT, what I lose according to the many results I read is quality in video, and the Panasonic has a much better lens on the camera which includes wide angle and an unheard of 12x zoom.
With all that said, i'm kind of borderline on both... do I want to sacrifice quality for size and coolness? I got a chance to sample the camera/vid while driving and at NYC's annual Japan Fair. Take a look and let me know what you think.

First shots with the Nikon D40
So I finally got to take some test shots with the new DSLR at Hofstra. I'm pretty impressed!! As Yoda said, "I have much to learn." But am looking forward to learning all I can! These shots are all unedited and are pretty much raw since I don't have photoshop on this comp yet. Let me know what you think!
