FinePix A825

Okay, so I finally sold my old Fuji FinePix S3100 today, it was a great camera for features and being a full featured camera I could have gone the lens route with it, but I never got around to buying lenses so what the hell did I need this monster for? Plus the image stabilization sucked out loud. I need something to snap pictures and go, and something that I can stick in my pocket. I took that money and reinvested in the FinePix A825 and am very thrilled so far.

This post is after just a dozen photos so far, but I’m going to let you see what I’m talking about. I snapped a photo of my cat/security guard Keegan in the Macro mode, low light with flash.

Here’s the thumbnail, click for the full size (I trimmed it down a tad because full size was over 3200px wide, cut it down to 2600px wide).

I believe that I will have a ton of fun photo-wise next time I take this out for a real world example, maybe next week’s Arch Rivals roller derby match…

iPod Nano

Well, it’s been a couple of weeks since I left the old shuffle behind for a 4GB iPod Nano, I have to say I’m digging it so far. I never really needed a solution like this until I lost the CD player in my car, it used to be just burn a disk in the morning and go! This is a bit better solution as I can hold much more music than a traditional cd would and have a lot more choices per day. However, I now have way too much to choose from so I’ve become a driving playlist hopper

But I figure I’ll get over that.

Samsung m610

I have been using this phone for around a few weeks. I recently switched jobs and lost my free cellular phone, and as my wife using Sprint I figured I should get one too, that way we can share the M2M(Mobile to Mobile). My buddy works for Sprint and hooked me up on a referral program for very cheap and recommended I replace my RAZR with their m610, I’m very pleased so far, the audio quality is great, it’s actually thinner than the RAZR and I can use funformobile.com to upload my own made ringtones and wallpapers, so that’s pretty hip.

Likes:
Thinness
Sound Quality
Rubbery feel to the case
Battery Life

Dislikes:
Occasional Reset for no reason

I give this phone a 9.5 out of 10 in rating, it’s a solid phone with great features, and very tough for a slimphone.
