Thanks guys! They just stood there and posed for me after I sat down and the little girl ran out of bread!

I am so excited I've never had a camera that did that well, now with out a tripod I need to hold it still in 40 mile an hour gusts! Hehe!

You're going to have some serious fun with that thing! (you really get it at a pawn shop? I'm going to have to check out the ones here!)
