R.I.P. Canon A710, originally uploaded by

The state of my old camera after its unnatural demise. But what's this? I can take a picture of my old camera...with my new replacement. It's a scratch-and-dent model, meaning the viewscreen cover has a spiderweb crack in it, but it seems to work fine and the lens is unscratched. This means I got it for about 1/3-1/4 the price it's going for new, which is pretty good since this is the next model up from my deceased darling. Still need to figure out the new camera's tricks.
