Here is the page on the Kodak Web site for my new camera. I got it with a dock too. I really hope it came with a neck strap and a lens cap, but I can't tell because I'm at work now, and my camera is at home. I also can't tell if it came with a rechargeable battery pack, which I hope it did because then I can recharge the batteries on the camera dock. If not, it takes Kodak brand KLIC-8000 Li-Ion rechargeables. Damn proprietary batteries.

So far, this is what I have learned about my camera: Read more... )

I just got a rechargeable battery for my camera and 2 4 GB memory cards. Since Staples was selling the memory cards for almost half off, I got a backup. Now to charge the battery when I get home.... I should probably get another battery too when I have a bit more money to dispose of. Well, there went my Momoko refund... :p

Despite the fact that most of my dolls are queer and completely lacking in fashion sense, I'm attracted to Earring Magic Ken, a gay fashion disaster doll who appeared on the mainstream market in disastrous state. He would be entirely redundant, though, as I already have a character named Ken [Kenneth Sibley] and clothes that are even tackier than his default outfit.

Scratch that. I don't have a dock for my camera. Ergo I ordered a camera charger and another battery. Blather! )

Then I tried to transfer the pictures off the memory card and on to the computer, only to discover that my computer does not read high-capacity SD cards, just regular ones. I'll have to get an SDHC reader. Blather part II! )

Anyway, here are some more test results from my new camera. One shows some pieces of my latest Rement acquisition, Secret Shelf from the Storage Beauty collection, just to demonstrate that, yes, my new camera focuses passably well on small things.

The next picture is one that I sneezed out, by which I mean that I took it without any conscious planning, forethought or composition, but it still came out pretty awesome. It's Rori, of course.Pulchritudinous pictures. )

Tonner makes a 10" friend to Tiny Kitty Collier, Simone Rouge. With a black bob and a round, pert face, the Simon Rouge Raven Basic edition is sweet and welcoming. Though fashions for Tiny Kitty and Simone Rouge tend toward the formal, fussy and mature, 10" Simone Rouge is just the right size for a teenaged girl or a petite woman in 1:6. Her price, around $60.00 in underwear, is about right for a doll that's articulated as well as an articulated Barbie, but with bendable wrists. Like Momoko, she's very cute, but useless, as I have no character for her.
