Moonbathed around 2 am when the moon finally appeared.. Then got all obsessed with figuring out how my new digital camera works.Whatdo all these buttons do ? How do I get them to do what I want? CONTROL !!! (and much impatience )
I am so looking forward to taking pictures and getting them downloaded onto the computer.Since I’ve never done this before though , this is both scary and frustrating.
I was like this when I got my first computer and then my mobile and now this digital camera with very limited memory . So there’s the memory bit to sort out too

“ An amazing combination value, simplicity and performance makes the Sony Cybershot DSC-S500 a perfect entry-level choice for first-time digital photographers”
haha .. they hadn’t reckoned with this particular etry level person.
“ Advanced features place it at the head of its class: 6.0-megapixel resolution for tight crops and big prints, a quality 3x optical zoom and wide-angle shooting capability, a large 2.4-inch LCD screen for setting up shots and sharing results, 25 MB internal memory for capturing images in-camera, and up to 350 shots using optional Stamina rechargeable batteries. (Stamina batteried not included--must be purchased separately.) “
It’s the “ amazing array of advanced digital features “ that has me baffled lol
“There's also a slot for optional Memory Stick Duo media, “ where the heck is that .. and what about that memory stick thingy that is still tobe purchased ?
Also in the box along with my Sony DSC-S500 digital camera, were two AA one-use Alkaline batteries, USB cable, wrist strap, software CD-ROM
Now I have to figure out where to stick the cables ........................................
It may take time before you see pics, people ! Be patient with me
