I know I know, it's a Nikon. I did a lot of research before getting it for her though and for less than a hundred bucks it got the best reviews of the entry level's. I really needed something that was completely automatic for her and DPReview's review gave it the best for that. Plus her biggest criteria for her own camera camera was that it be blue.

I am not sure if her excitement depicted in the photo is that of:

1. Holy crap, sweat, my very own camera!
2. Holy crap my parents bought a Nikon they must like Aston Kutcher too!

:lol::lol::lol: Too funny.

It'll be fun to see some of her shots. My daughter has a very unique (and actually pretty good) perspective.

I think we should all pitch in and buy some Canon stickers to cover up the Nikon logos. Congrats to your daughter on the new camera.

Love her expression..... I am sure she will love using it.
You can tell her when she grows up you will buy her a Canon.:)
