Bought a new camera

I bought a Nikon D60 this weekend for ¥37,000 with a cashback I’ve got to fill out that’ll get me a further ¥5,000 off.

As you can see I’m having a lot of fun with the DSLR, shooting RAW and messing around with Aperture. I’m hoping I’ll have tons of cool photos coming to my flickr stream and this blog as I start to get a handle of my new toy.
