Sun came just in time to test my new EOS 450D. Although we reached the trekking spot around midday and the weather turned misty, I am very satisfied of this first field test. Watch the show above to get an idea of the nice day we had walking from Weesen to Betlis Wasserfallen or check some of the nicest original size pictures of today:

Reactions on “Silvio Berlusconi the Third” beyond Italian borders

“I really don’t understand Italians. You know… French people didn’t really know what would have happened with Sarkozy. Now they know him and his popularity is quickly going down. But with Berlusconi…how did it happen AGAIN? It is the third time Italians elect Silvio Berlusconi. Are Italians not yet aware about him? Do Italians really think such a men can work for the good of Italy and not for the good of himself? How can Italians be so naive about Silvio Berlusconi? I love Italy and I love Italians; I go to Italy for holidays as soon as I can, every year. I just don’t understand Italians anymore.”

First impressions on my new Canon EOS 450D

- It is incredibly light and fast
- 12.2 Mpixels give pictures really high definition (click on the post picture and zoom it – look for the people on the streets!)
- The color palette is magnificent
- Menus and setup are very intuitive (I had already a EOS 300)
- Battery recharging is fast (2 hours)
- Flash dosage is accurate
- I’ve to buy a USB 2.0

I found the joy of having a reflex camera again, without the negative side effect of expensive develop in photo studios! Thank a lot Babbo (non Natale). Next week I will get also the EF 70-300mm, f/4-5.6 IS USM. It will then be hard to find time to go to work
