On the other hand, there is a certain sense of unbridled delight at discoveries made by accident. I bet I went around for two hours, thinking - "Wow, how cool is this!" Of course, I might of felt the same rush 10 months earlier by reading the book, and I would have probably made a darn site more interesting movie.

I'm ha...ROTFLOL!<BR/><BR/>OK Terry, here's the thing. I'm happy that you got a current-technology camera. Really, I am. But girl, I'm going to have to pity you once again for all the wonderful video opportunities you've missed out on over the last 10 months! And all because you don't want to read the user's manual??? Heavens, even I read user's manuals!<BR/><BR/>I live in a half & half household. My daughter and I read manuals, my son and husband don't. I have to say that both groups find/learn things that the other doesn't. There is definitely something to be said for hands-on learning. My husband and son often find things that aren't included in the user's manual. But hey, I teach them plenty from the manual that they never figured out too!<BR/><BR/>If your husband is going to read the manual and supplement your hands-on learning with tips from the user's manual than all the better. But if he's leaving it all up to you, girl, you'd better cover all your bases! <I>Read the manual <B>and</B> play with the camera to learn!</I> [grin]<BR/><BR/>(It'll be interesting to see what you come up with when you actually try to make a movie ;-)Jasiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02561520746304048996noreply@blogger.com
