Ordered my camera

[Shasta]

I ordered my camera today. I was going to buy a Canon XT or XTi but discovered the "super zoom" catagory and decided it fit my needs best. Here is my order:

Canon PowerShot S5 IS Digital Camera
Sandisk 4 GB Ultra II Secure Digital { SDHC } Memory Card W/ Reader
CrysSakar LA-S3 58mm Lens Barrel Adapter For Canon PowerShot
Crystal Optics 58mm Circular Polarizer Filter

Now I have two months to learn it's functions for our Jan 1-7 trip. I plan to being back some great shots to share!

Congrats, I am sure you'll love it. Learn how to adjust your ISO, and how that will effect your low light photos. Also, pick up a table top tri pod for some long exposure shots, you can just sit it on top of a garbage can.

Thank you, I will do that. I have an Ultrapod II from back in the old film days. I'll be sure to pack it too.

I'm sure you'll be very happy with your new camera ... there are a LOT of very happy Canon S-series users here.
