Mike's Thoughts

So I officially received my new Nikon D40 digital SLR camera today. Here’s the thing…I bought my LG Dare with the thought that I would consolidate my devices by carring around a camera and a cell phone all in one. Let me tell you, despite being a 3.2 megapixel camera, it’s still a really bad camera on a camera phone, and it just wasn’t cutting it.

So, I took the plunge and bought Nikon’s entry level SLR. It’s only a 6 megapixel camera, but it’s miles beyond anything I have ever used. For more information on it, check out this site.

Right now, I’ve take about 115 really bad photos! I mean come on, for an entry level SLR, this thing has a ton of features, and I’m just beginning to wrap my head around them all. However, I was able to come up with a few that I thought were ok, given that it was my first time out.

I have created another page on my actual web site where I will post pictures that I find interesting. To check it out, simply go to gallery.mikebruckner.com, or click on the link at the top of my blog, or at the top of my main site.
