The big reveal....

Some people have asked me what camera I finally decided buying after my blog post a few weeks back re: camera purchase post and I realized I still hadn't posted the winner. After a few stops into various camera places to get feedback on all the different types of cameras, I decided to buy the Nikon Coolpix L120 in red. It was a tough decision because there really are so many cameras that do pretty much the same thing and they all are pretty close in quality. 

What it came down to for me was:

1. optical zoom- the Nikon had 21x optical zoom as opposed to other cameras that only had 12-15 optical zoom
2. fast shooting mode
3. continuous shooting mode which allows you to take five or six frames instantly in a row
4. the price was unbeatable
5. and lastly, it looked cool, which really wasn't a deciding factor but maybe more of a bonus :)

I am happy to report that I have used my camera quite a bit since purchasing it a few weeks ago and I absolutely love it! It has so many incredible features that I have used and the picture quality is fantastic. I already feel like an amateur photographer (well, not really) but at least I kind of look like it with my awesome, new camera!

Here are some shots with the new camera so far...

*I would have added more pictures but Blogger seems to be having an off night so I will try and post more pictures when I have a chance :)
