Random thoughts of an upbeat mind

Look what I got

July 11, 2013

I broke down and finally bit the bullet.  After 8+ years of wanting and researching and contemplating I finally purchased this beauty.

60D (Source)

I have lusted after a DSLR for a very long time.  Never considered anything other than a Rebel until Costco sent me an email with a coupon for this lovely 60D.  She (soon to be named ;)) came with 2 lens, a bag and a memory card.

I researched some more.  I contemplated.  I bothered all who knew me and most said “Get it, if only so we can FINALLY stop having this conversation.”

Then I justified it by saying “It’s Costco, if I don’t like it I can take it back.”

So I have 90 days to play with this camera and see if it is all I thought it would be and more. 🙂
