Since June 2006, I have been using a Nikon D50 with 2 lenses, one is 70-300 mm, 1:4-5.6G , the other one is 28-80mm, 1:3.3-5.6 G.

This camera is an entry level DSLR (digital single lens reflex camera). The main advantage that this camera has over the normal digital cameras is speed. When you push the button the picture is taken immediately. This makes it much easier to capture “the moment”. With our old digital camera, there was always a short pause before the picture was taken, making it much much harder to capture moving kiddos.

We also have a small camera, Fujifilm Finepix, mainly for taking short video clips. Ah Zhu refers this camera “His Camera”. He sometimes takes pictures with it but I really don’t like it at all. If I do have to use it to take pictures, I would always complain about how horrible it is and Ah Zhu would yell at me and ask me to stop making fun of “His Camera”.

This is Ah Zhu.  Yes, it is true, my poor little camera is always being insulted by my lao po.  But we don’t mind, because we can take video, and the little camera fits nicely in my pocket.
