Default New Camera, lots of photo's (but no fish...;) )

After much fighting with the shipping company, I finally got my new camera today. I opted for a Canon Rebel XSi (or 450D to the rest of the world). Right now I've only got the kit lens and the speedflash. No fancy accessories, yet. These aren't super great as this is my first day with an SLR, but I'm really excited that they turned out this well. The files that weren't shrinked down for the web look better than these, I'm still not sure the best way to make JPEG files just yet to make the best picture quality for the web.

Here's a few of our cats

Mo- I just have to be selective about which fish photo's I show of if I want to enter the POTM comming up lol. With the adjustments on this camera, so far I've found it easier to capture my fish than with my point and shoot.

Thanks Matt. I had a blast tonight. Just wsh I had more time in the day and a bigger memory card.

And the cats are cats, what can I say? lol
