Especially when it comes to digital cameras. We’re impressed with the Casio Exilim EXZ1000 and its breathtaking high-speed performance. Release time lag, start up, image scrolling, and other operations clock some of the fastest speeds available in a digital camera today. Large and bright 2.8-inch screen is easy to see, even on a sunny day. 10 megapixels ensure crystal-clear image output for both printing and screen, delivering extraordinary photographic detail. The long-life battery packs enough power for around 350 still images on a single charge, and the camera comes with Casio’s Anti Shake DSP to reduce photo blur due to shaky hands or moving subjects.

Paula and Sherry have been making photo books for their out of town grandsons, writing stories about their visits and all the things they love to do together. The kids love the books as part of their bedtime library. Better yet, the books will be treasured memories in the future, and much more fun than the typical family photo albumn. They’ve each made a couple of books by now and used different approaches with each. Sherry tends to go for the traditional scrapbook approach, buying a blank book and placing the printed photos, text and embellishments on the pages by hand. Paula’s gone electronic – laying out digital photos, texts and graphics on the pages one at a time and then binding them into a book. Both approaches yield terrific results; in my mind the main difference is whether or not you want the ability to make more than one copy of the exact same book. If you want more than one, then digital is definitely the way to go.
Either way, I’ve tracked down an amazing website all about scrapbooking that’s chock full of resources and ideas for both traditional and digital scrapbooking. If you’re a scrapbooker of either ilk, next time you’re surfing check out A Cherry on Top. They’ve got thousands and thousands of products and an enormous gallery to provide inspiration. It’s a complete online community and definitely worth a stop.
