Also suddenly last week we needed a camera for an event, I discovered my camera crapped out. It would take pictures, but the view screen didn't work, so it was like cross your fingers and hope you have it in view. That's just dumb.

So Best Buy had and ad for a Canon similar to what I had for $149. I went to Wal-mart first to see if they had something competitive. I ran across a slightly more expensive Olympus. I liked what I saw.

So I went next door to Best Buy, saw a comparable Olympus (VR-350) the same price as the bulky Canon. Tested it out,  read reviews and I was hooked. Picked that puppy up and am more than happy with my amateur needs for taking photogs.

I just found out it can take 3D and a variety of other cool little bells and whistles. For $149, I'm happy.







The 3D was a kick in the head. It's easy to shoot and simply the Red/Blue glasses. On the little screen it's cool. Wonder what it looks like on the big screen... or if I can share it here?

Hmmmmmm
