R.I.P. Sony CyberShot

The timing is perfect. Weirdly perfect, in fact--our camera finally died on us, five days after getting home.

As some of you know, our camera got a little taste of Mediterranean saltwater last October, and since then we've had it on an informal "death watch", waiting to see when corrosion would get the best of it. We'd noticed a gradual decline in picture quality over the past few months--it became more and more difficult to get things like focus and exposure correct. We found ourselves taking multiple shots of a subject, hoping at least one would be sharp and in focus.

Finally back home, it gave up completely. We're not able to shoot much of anything anymore--notice Jacqueline's hand:


So long li'l CyberShot, you served us well :-(

Sell it to someone who's on LSD. They won't know the difference!

Hey Jacquiline and Keith,

It was great meeting you at Ray's wedding last night. Here's the Pho Challenge you want to know more about! If you decide to go, let me know so I can go take pictures! LOL...

An interesting discussion is definitely worth comment.
I do believe that you ought to publish more about this topic, it might not be a
taboo subject but typically folks don't talk about such issues. To the next! All the best!!
