Help me get a new camera…

You might have seen that I have a message on my right sidebar. There is a big contest going on over at FuelMyBlog where I could possibily win $500.00 and I could certainly use that money to get a new digital camera that I can use on the water. I mentioned that camera below. The Sanyo E1 is a digital camera that is also waterproof and a digital video camera. If I can secure the $500.00 prize I would be golden for getting The Wired Kayaker podcast back on its feet, or at least back on the water.

My Xacti…. is dead

If you have ever seen any of my YouTube videos you would know that I used to have a Xacti C4 video/digital still camera. Unfortunately that camera is now dead. It started subtle with the degradation of the battery for this camera. I looked around for a new one and tried many different places but decided not to get one. Probably a bad move.

I kept using the camera and it kept on ticking. I had taken the camera to over 30 states, and taken over 8000 photos with it and probably 300 hours of video. I used it a LOT. But recently it took a turn for the worst and died. It flat out gave up. But all in all it was a trooper. Don’t expect many videos from me in the near future as it will take some time to decide on a camera that had the reliability of my Xacti.

Here is the final production of my Sanyo Xacti C4.
