So I mentioned me getting a decent gift from my mum just before new year. I have been pestering my mum for about two months for it and she will not give in if it wasnt for my aunt’s encouragement. She thinks a person does not need two cameras. Heh. My two months’ worth of pester did not go down the drain. I got it on New Year’s Eve for a very, very good price. Thanks, Carol!

This is what I got.

Canon Powershot Pro S3 IS. I sort of fell in love with it after reading the review. I told myself that I must get(my mum to get) it! I like taking pictures; an interest developed after countless camwhoring sessions. So I thought its time to take it to the next level.

I am still very noob with it because there are so many things to learn. Before this, I didnt know what the hell was aperture. After getting it, I still dont quite understand when to use it. *sigh* But The Guy will teach me =)

I love the super macro mode, the movie recording is great, the 12x optical zoom is impressive and there are many other things yet to be discovered.

I will not list the specs here like I did for my laptop when I purchased it. Feel free to head over to DPreview to check the camera out.

I am really satisfied with it. Now I have two Canon cameras. I guess that makes me a Canon supporter(I am in fact one).

Me ish so happy.

Ta.

Its orange in colour….couldnt accept the colour at the begining but I love the specs. Now I kind of like the colour too =D

It has a quick start function to watching DVD/VCD and listening to CD. Which means you can do the mentioned without switching on the operating system

Which most laptops now have…

It has a 5-in-1 card reader

It has 4 USB ports all together. Along with my 4 ports hub, I have more than enough USB ports now.

Speakaaaa

Urm. I am not too familiar with the computer terms. So if I make any mistake calling them wrongly, do excuse me.
