New Toy

DSC_8760
We recently upgraded our camera to the Nikon D5100 (body only). Our D40 has served us well but has started to show signs of trouble. We and many others were getting a shutter release error where you can't use the camera. Although people claim the WD40 trick works, we figured it was time. Usually a good whack does the trick but not always.

The new camera takes video and has a live monitor so you don't always have to look through the eye piece. It also has 11 auto focus areas which means it should focus a lot better than the D40's 3 areas. The megapixel's also increases from 6MP to 16MP. The high ISO performance works really well making it a lot easier to catch Lauren's and Cole's indoor soccer matches.
