Best part is we picked it up for $265 shipped the cheapest we could find it on the net was $600+ from Amazon. Here a quick pic I took (all though it lost some quility during down sizing and uploading to photobucket)

You know, that's a very good and important point. In fact there is not scotch at all. WTF?

Cool camera though, I'll check it out.:cheers:

There's no Tequila either which will make it to our collection before scotch will. Not a fan of **flame suit on** scotch :p

Tequila makes me do things that I end getting arrested for, either at the completion of my 8th shot or two days later when I have no recollection.

Tequila bad.
 
Wytstang, how do you get the pics to post full size and not the 640x480 that it posts at if you use the "attachment" feature (paperclip)? Thanks.
 
I use photobucket.com to upload pictures then I just copy and past the IMG tags.

I tried that and it didn't work, so I copied and pasted the image url and it worked! Thanks man:cheers:
 
I tryied it once and loved it very smooth it doesn't have that nasty after taste that Cuervo(sp?) Gold/1800 has. Mixes great with sprite as well, the shots that I took (about 5) were smooth taste and went down easy A++++++

If theres one thing I don't know it's cameras, I'm camera illiterite, your first post looks like pig latin to me:D. I just have some little Sony Digi that's good, still don't know how to use all the settings on it. One of my cousins is a camera nut though, she has thousands invested in a couple cameras with all these extra attachments, doo dads, certain lenses blah blah.
