Given that Anime London has been going for over a decade some things just wear out over time. One of them being the camera I use at conventions. The old Canon SD300 is literally over a 10 years old. Two of 3 batteries no longer hold their charge and frankly 4 megapixels is quite behind the times.\u00a0\u00a0 Even cameras on smart phones surpass that.\u00a0 I have been shopping for a new camera for over a year.\u00a0 I ended up recently buying this camera…<\/p>\n

\"Fuji<\/p>\n

It was my second choice since both Fuji T500 in stock had issues.\u00a0 It ended up being a good choice since the 16 megapixel T410 which comes with wall charger for batteries where the T500 uses the camera and charges via USB.\u00a0 Still playing with the camera but a welcomed change to the Canon SD300.\u00a0 Mind you the SD300 still works a decade later of hard use with tens of thousands of pictures taken over the decade.<\/p>\n

My Samsung camcorder didn’t last as long before the cable which connects the display broke.\u00a0 It has been replaced with a Panasonic PV-GS300 camcorder. which I bought earlier last year with set of 4 batteries.<\/p>\n

\"Panasonic<\/p>\n

Also I had a gracious donation of an iPhone 4S to replace my iPod Touch 4th gen which has seen better days.\u00a0 Considering the iPhone 4S camera is 8 megapixels, it’s better than my old gear by far.<\/p>\n

This make the tools to cover this year’s conventions a WHOLE lot better than before. Time marches on and so does technologies. Even with these additions, it’s not cutting edge but I look forward to this year.\u00a0 I hope you do too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
