New Toy: Fujifilm Finepix J10
Best Buy had a killer deal on the 8MP Fujifilm Finepix J10 for only $116.99 that the retail store price matched off the website. It took a little haggling because initially the clerk tried to tell me that the online price was only for shipping and not in-store pickup. I told the guy that it would be excellent customer service if he just sold me the camera there and now rather than have me go home and order it online for in-store pickup. He relented and I walked out the door with my new toy.
Granted, this is not a top of the line camera. It is an entry level point and shoot but I researched the camera online and found mostly positive reviews. The clincher was the night time shots I saw posted on several sites. There was very little noise and purple fringing so I was sold. I’ve not yet had the chance to put the camera through any serious tests but I shot a few samples at home and was surprised at the decent quality the camera produces just on Auto mode.
Over the next week I will start to bang out some shots here and there and then I’ll have a better idea as to whether or not this is a decent camera. But for now I am pleased and for only $116.99 I don’t think I made a bad purchase.

After a few close calls it looks like Mr. Viddy is sailing into calmer waters.
No, I shall not bore you with the details but let us just say that the last month has been hectic and I am looking forward to a great summer. The new job is kick ass, and hopefully Microsoft will be staying out of the picture for a long while.
Oh Yesh
I must say, free coffee, soda and snacks is a pretty snazzy perk.
Oy, coffee!
