New camera.. same Lydia silliness

Wednesday, we went out to Circuit City to check out a camera I've been researching.. the Canon SD750. It's not their latest Elph, but I really like the slick design and somewhat reasonable price. The camera goes for $300 retail at CC, but the plan was to price match CC's online price of $260 and try to use a printed coupon for $40 off that I found on Slickdeals. This is one of those YMMV (your mileage may vary - for the unitiated) deals since the coupon clearly stated "no reproductions allowed". While waiting for the manager's approval for the price match, the sales rep rang it up and it actually came out to $250 - for some unknown reason - cheaper than it was online. So we jumped on it and handed him the $40 off coupon, which he scanned without carefully reading the details. When all was said and done, $210 (plus tax) for the SD750 is a pretty slick deal!

Anyhow, now on to the outcome of our good fortune. Of course, we've already taken plenty of test shots with it, and most future pics on the blog will come from this camera... but just for starters, this is the first video we took on the SD750. I call it "Lydia does an impersonation of a lizard".


(Yea, the quality doesn't appear to be an improvement over the old videos, but that is because YouTube forces you to reduce the resolution, and it does some crappy compression on it.)
