    So, I’m looking to get a new camera in September before our vacation and during baseball season, so that I can learn how to use it and replace my old camera.

    I probably need to stay away from a DSLR. I’m not a pro, and I don’t want to mess with lenses, especially when I travel. I probably need to stay with a good point and shoot. Something better than an IPhone camera, but not as hard-core as a DSLR. I had a Nikon before, and it was fine. Nothing to rave about. It did it’s job. But, I feel like it’s dated already, and not doing a good enough job.

    Recommendations? πŸ™‚ …..

    FUN! I posted a few Point & Shoot recommendations in my blog post. The first section has some links to P&S cameras. Nikon, Canon or Sony are my top 3. It just depends on your comfort level when using them. In terms of features, most of them are comparable.

    Awesome! I had seen that & had forgotten to click the link into it (I was waiting in carpool haha!). I will definitely check it out!!

    I read a good article last week describing mirror-less cameras, and I thought of you πŸ™‚

    Oh, I am in love with my mirrorless. That says alot because I love my Canon Mark III DSLR too. But it’s the best of both worlds. The image and video quality are fantastic. I use the lens that it came with and haven’t even looked at any other ones. It fits my daily needs. The focusing features are awesome too.

    I picked up my DSLR the other day and now it feels like a brick.

    That is awesome! The mirrorless seems like a very cool technology!! I loved learning about the techy part of it.

    Oh, and you’ll have to let me know what the video is like on that mirrorless camera. Is it good? Do you like it?

    I went ahead & ordered the Canon PowerShot Sx350. Yay! I will let you know how I do with it. I didn’t want to overthink it and spend too much time obsessing about what to get. I know it will be a better updated point and shoot than the Nikon I have, where my old Nikon camera technology has just straight up gotten old. I was really tempted by that little PowerShot G9xMark II. I love the smallness of it.

    I like to have great photos, but also need to have pretty good video quality for my little movies. I am really looking forward to seeing what this Sx350 can do. I am hoping to love it! I figure if I end up hating it, I’m only out $270, which isn’t horrible and Scott can’t get mad at that price. Price is what really deters me from getting a separate kick-butt video camera and a separate camera too. I just hate to put all of that money into anything technological. Wish I had an unlimited budget!! πŸ™‚

    I LOVE the video. I’ve taken tons of video clips that I just need to compose together. I’ll share as soon as I can. πŸ™‚
    And yay! I hope you like the camera. You’ll have to share photos. πŸ™‚

    Here’s a video I made today of the kids in the kitchen. This was taken with my Sony A7.

    Awww, so cute! Yes, that video looks good! OMG, I love that Martha White muffin mix. I use it all the time. I am actually going to use it next week for a teacher breakfast day. Thanks for the tips Malia & Max πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚

{215/365} While the kids are beach combing, I like to find a quiet spot to just watch the tide ebb & flow.  Fortunately, the California coastline provides plenty of opportunity to do just that.

She actually LOVES school but she had a pretty amazing summer. It’s always hard to go back to the grind after having such a great time.  Have your kids started school yet?
