In which I am clearly not used to buying nice things...
Fuck me. I just bought a £240 camera and I'm not even into photography. My brain's still in shock even though I paid almost half of that in vouchers and I've been eyeing that camera for like a month now, so it's not even like it was spur of the moment. Well, okay, I was actually going to buy the cheaper version, which was £163 and almost exactly the same, up until a week ago, but this one was blue nicer, so. And it has GPS, which... I will probably turn off immediately and never turn on again.
You now what, self? You've already bought the damn thing, stop trying to talk yourself out of it again.
You see, this is why it's a bad idea to go look at things in the shop first. I had never even considered this one until I held it in my hands at the camera store last week. Still feel guilty about not buying it there, by the way, after the guy spent 20 minutes showing it to me, but fuck it, I had a shit ton of Amazon vouchers to spend. I might go and, like, buy a tripod there or something... :/
Oh well.
This isn't just for shits and giggles, by the way. See, we're going to Iceland in March (hopefully. Presuming I can learn to drive by then) and we're going to see the northern lights (they'd better fucking turn up!) and so I needed a camera to do all the fancy shit the internet says you need to capture it. Who wants to bet I'll just give up and video the damn thing anyway? Well, at least this camera can do that too. In HD. Fancy. I don't even have an HD TV. Clearly worth it!
