before my camera dies…

my sony camera that shivers every now and then after that careless drop has serve me well for the past three years.
well enough by continuing serving me after that painful fall but yet not well enough when it decides to shivers or worse still, by dozing off.

it sort of embarrass me every time when it decides to be a rebellious kid by not functioning well when I asked help from people to snap a picture of me and my friend.

i sent it to the hospital once when it started shaking vigorously, still under warranty at that time and it came back to me looking all normal.
but after some time, it shakes again!!
no more going back to hospital, warranty’s over. poor baby.

you should really take a look at how the shivering and shaking is done.
i hope it better not die on me when i’m broke.
but somehow each time i use it, it just feels like something in it dies a little.
i know it’s time. soon.
or i could be wrong, maybe it can function while dozing off every now and then for another few years.
yeah, i wish.

i’ve got a few nominated cameras in mind to replace this beautiful baby of mine if it ever pass away.

the first of course has got to be my baby’s sister.
a whole lot more tougher. yes, sony’s tx5!
the main reason i love it so much is because it knows how to swim.
yes i do not know how to swim but who cares, as long as i can bring it with me when i dip myself into the pool or the sea.
secondly, it can drop without having the side effect of shaking.
of course you don’t drop it from the 31st floor of some dickhead’s balcony.
it can drop from 1.5m which means you can put it on my head and drop it. how cool!!

not to forget it comes with dust and freeze proof too. not like it will ever get a chance to freeze itself out if i own it, but maybe if i’m bored enough i’ll just have it sit beside that piece of lonely drumstick in my freezer.
there’s a whole lot more but these alone are good enough for me to really consider this camera.
prolly I can get it for like thousand two, or less than that a little.

second nominee, a dslr.
i know it looks hideous. why dslr have to look that ugly, i can never get it.
maybe looking ugly equals to looking professional. which is why those professionals you come across, always look ugly.
sorry, just kidding.
anyway, if i’m getting a dslr of course i will pick the most basic ones.
i’ll just walk over to the counter and said, ‘hand me the cheapest dslr’. how so elegant.
the cheapest cost around thousand four or maybe a little cheaper than that.
it’s like if i’m planning to get that waterproof baby, i just have to fork in a little bit more to get an ugly but professional looking camera that shots awesome pictures.
but you can never swim with it. pfft!

third nominee.

(yes, i actually wanted a canon e1 when it just appeared on the market quite some time back. cause it’s kind of cheap plus it looks cute but i don’t think i can get it now even if i want to.)

maybe i shouldn’t give myself so much burden by spending a thousand on camera.
maybe i should just buy one that cost a few hundred and just live with it for the rest of my life.
a camera that cost only a few hundred will not have touch screen and i’m so use to touch screen camera.
if you hand me a camera with no touch screen, i’ll just stare at it not knowing which button to press.
of course i’ll get the hang out of it fast but i really prefer touch screen ones.
the reason for getting a cheaper camera is to not overspend.
suggest me a few camera that is cheap enough but at the same time takes good pictures.
with one more condition, it has got to be pink! no joke.

there’s too much camera on the market, there must be something that fits in the category i just mentioned.
cheap. good picture. pink.

and lastly.

one that i will never have the chance to buy unless i hit a jackpot or a rich guy.
lumix pink gf-1.
i don’t know how many thousands i need for this, i don’t bother checking out.

life will be perfect if i can have that sony which can go swimming with me and this lumix in pink which looks pretty and professional. winner.
whoever started this let’s-sell-pink-gadgets idea, should i thank you or should i kick you in the ass?
pink colour, girls market. you can never go wrong.

just cant quite help being a bimbo for a moment and go ‘awwww, that’s so pretty’ whenever a pink gadget catches my attention.

will you please tell me which is the best option?
before my pretty camera dies while i mourn over it’s death not knowing which camera shall replace it and walk with me for the rest next few years of my life.
