For the past year I have been having this kind of relationship. No, no, no, not with my future mister, but with Cameron. Who's Cameron? On good days where everything seems to be going well, I call my love Camy, on other days when things seem like everything is going wrong I call him Cameron. Who is Cameron? Ladies and gents, I'd like to introduce you all to Cameron:
Oh Cameron is my camera! Hehehehe. I bought Cameron last year when I was in the U.S. Cameron and I have been together for a little over a year. We've had a lot of good times together. We traveled together, laughed together, hung out together, ate together.


Though we've had a lot of good times together, I must admit that we've also had tons of bad times as well. These were the times when only 3 out of the 50 pictures that I took turned out okay, everything else was blurry. These were also the times when I was so busy trying to figure out setting just so the picture would turn out pretty and I ended up disappointed because the whole moment just passed by. These were also the moments when all my friends lips started quivering because I kept trying to snap tons and tons of pictures, making them pose the same way just to check which setting worked best. Camy and I have traveled high and low together. Camy sat well behaved in my bag, but unfortunately I realized that Camy was just way too heavy, to the point where my shoulder started to hurt and my scoliosis was really starting to suffer. So I had to ditch Camy and rely on the camera from my cellphone. Honestly, the main reason I wanna say goodbye to Camy is mainly because I can't seem to figure out how the ISO's, Apperture, and Speed work together. I have been doing my homework and researched on all that, I do get what they are for, but I just can't seem to find the perfect combination. I hate having to try every single knob and combination just to see if the picture is not too dark or not too bright. The other major reason is because of its size. It is just way too heavy.

So I've been thinking, maybe I should sell Cammy and get a smaller camera. I heard CanonS100 is a pretty good choice. The size is small but it gives you the same quality photos as that of a DSLR. Hmmmm....
What do you guys think? Is my Camy worth keeping and getting to know more? Or is it time that I get out of this love/hate relationship and say hello to CanonS100?

haha you're so funny, I wish I could give you camera advice but I have trouble with my own camera so .. that probably wouldn't be very helpful. I'm glad I'm not the only one who plans their outfits around their eating habits lol I'll try & take a better picture of my purse soon so you can see it :)
You and camy have been through a lot together and look at those wonderful photos ! But I can understand the reasons you are thinking of moving on, it makes sense, ...now adays it seems like they make small, light weight camera's that do take just as good of pictures as the "fancy" heavy ones.
Good luck---I'll be anxious to see what you decide!
Haha that's funny, I should name my camera too. :D

I say RIP to Camy ... you took a lot of amazing pictures with that guy! There are a ton of smaller and less heavier cameras nowadays that still take amazing quality like that, or that you can add lenses too if you want to make your pics even fancier, so maybe look into that! Good luck with your decision lady (:
I love these pictures! And my camera advice is terrible! Why can't things be easier :(

I love that you named your camera. That's so awesome to me, seriously! I can't wait to get a really nice DSLR one day. For now my little powershot will have to do ;)
I don't know much about cameras, but I will say this: that dog made of toys is freaking awesome. I want one for my living room.
thats such a nice camera, i need a good one!!!
I wish I knew more about photography and cameras to help you out! But I'm all for simplification if that will make picture taking more enjoyable for you
You should take some classes!!! :)
I could never part with my dslr, I enjoy changing the settings and taking pictures even if they don't end up perfect. It's your decision to make, and I understand that if it's so heavy to carry around it means you are using it less xx
So Loving this post, thank you for commenting on my blog.

Lovely pictures! :) I think you should give Camy a rest and definitely invest in a better camera like the CanonS100 (no offense to Camy)..
Kisses! xxx

Your posts always put a smile on my face! Seriously though. It's ultimately up to you and how you feel about moving on to a new camera. The way I see it: new camera, new adventure. ;)
xo
That camera is awesome! I understand the need to move on though :)
I'm so glad I'm not the only one who found the new blogger look a bit frustrating!
I wish I had good camera advice. I wish I understood them better. I think I need to take a class! Good luck!
I'm no expert on cameras. I definitely can relate to your fruatratrations as I am still figuring out how to use mine. But I would keep it. You take such beautiful pictures with Camy!
I've a Canon T2i, and I couldn't agree more. Sometimes I don't carry my camera with me because it's too big. I'd a small Sony point shot, and oh boy, I do miss it at times.
Haha, great camera! I have a D3000, love it too<3
