Dilema.

I need a new camera. This is no secret, since breaking mine in Italy last summer and buying a cheap crappy one, I have lamented the loss of my dear old camera. My dad said he'd take a look at it forever ago, and I have heard nothing of it, and when I ask all I get is: "I've been busy." "I haven't had time." "I know what to do, but I haven't done it yet." And I love my dad, and I know he is capable of many things. But OMG has he gotten lazy. I'm not sure how, but if it's not bowling or work related (and even then) there is no guarantee it will ever get done. Exhibit A: our downstairs bathroom. It's been under construction for a good 6months-year (not sure since I was at school most of last year.) and nothings been done really. He did manage to close the gaping hole in our ceiling a month ago, but that's about it. Exhibit B: the spice rack. Dad has issues putting holes in the wall, so when I told him I was getting mom a spice organizer for Mother's day I also told him to pick it out so I knew it would be installed and used. 6 months later, it's still not installed and I'm feeling productive. So I do it (not without a lot of lamenting and moaning from him about how I'm doing it. WhichI'm more than capable of. I have a sufficient background in power tools and wood/metal/ styrofoam working- I can put in a 12"x3" spice shelf all by my own damn self)

The moral of this story is that I'm just gonna get a meaner, badder camera than the ones before it. For realsies. And I thought I knew which model I wanted, but now there's a new one thats cheaper, and honestly more realistic of me getting, but I'm not sure it stacks up to the one I wanted before. It's certainly cuter though. Opinions?

ooh, and how do you label? sorry if i'm being a pain... and i would say, if you're REALLY going to use the camera, maybe an extra $100 wouldn't be too painful. it's so cooool!

I don't know anything about cameras, but the new contender is definitely cuter. So I vote for that one...
