My first digital was an Olympus C-2100uz, which I pre-ordered when it was released some 5 1/2 years ago or so. I'm just now to the point where I can let it go. What a gem, I loved it! I have and will continue to post some of my favorite pictures from this camera as I go back through some of my older files.

I bought a Canon A70 for portability, great little camera, we take a lot of kid videos with it. It's funny how the 3 minute max is almost too much for any one video clip.

I delved into digital SLR in Nov '04 with a great deal on a Canon 10D on Ebay. Great camera, this is what made me decide to move away from my beloved C-2100uz.

After waiting to read reviews from all the major online places about the Rebel XT, I bought one to try, and I like it a lot! Though with the small grip, I felt it required the extended battery grip for the large lenses. After shooting a wedding with a Canon 70-200 f/2.8 L lens last weekend, I'm glad I had it!
