My New Camera

I had narrowed my choices down to the Canon T1i (500D) or the Canon 50D, and decided finally that I wanted to invest in a camera I would want to stick with for longer.   There were other reasons as well.  I like the balance of this camera in my hands, and I like the dials and buttons better than having to use a menu so much.  AF was better, too.  There were a few other things that helped me decide, but I think I mostly went with my "gut." 

In any case, Scott took a nice photo of my new toy, and I thought I'd share it!  (Click on this and any other pictures I post, to see them larger.)
