Gawd, I've gone to the dark side

I never thought I would ever see the day but I have gone and done it......



What you may ask?



I am struggling to actually utter the words but here goes






I've bought a (choke choke swallow) a

a

a

Nikon.............

A Nikon Coolpix S6100 compact camera for carrying around in my pocket. Cost me just over £60 from Tesco after redeeming some loyalty card vouchers. Eight months ago it was selling for nearly £200.

Doesn't feel as solid as my Ixus but let's see what the images are like.

I'll post some when I have been out later in the weekend.

One of the positives of changing technology is how fast prices get reduced as new stuff is brought out, i can never resist a bargain.
