It's A Tie!

Once, I was sold to the idea of owning a digicam with minimal specs as long as it could capture the moment. That simple. Now, I have the Canon Ixus I5, 5 mega pixels, 6x digital zoom, a roster of customizable settings, and yet I feel the need for something summarized in the word MORE. Optical zoom is on top of that list. I also want a WYSIWYG feature for the built-in monitor as I would often be satisfied with how the shot turns out when viewed from the cam and get disappoitned when viewed onto a PC. The image seems really inferior with what I had initially taken. Crap.

On the lighter side, I'm really loving the light saturation tweaks, customized presets, auto-focus, and other shot-enhancers. And it being compact is a major must-have factor, at least for me (the thing that led me to buy it in the first place).

Before retiring to bed last night, I took out some of my ties and dumped them onto the bed and got these macro shots (surprised at how things, all purportedly made from 100% pure silk, could feel and look different from each other).

At least I slept happily with how these shots came out. The patterns and textures and out-of-focus areas add drama to the set. I like it!
