Son's Camera Gift

My son gave me a digital camera for Christmas 2009. It was my first one! I would've been happier with a smaller, cheap camera to begin with until I learned to use digital. But my son took the receipt away and said, "No, I want you to have this one!" The camera he gave me wasn't cheap and it took a while for me to get started with it. Right now, I have nearly 1,200 photos on the original camera card. Am guessing I have another 1,000 photos or so from my past film cameras?--Have them stored. When I get enough money, I'll buy myself an even better digital camera but this was a thoughtful gift which my son gave me! [He got it on sale and it still wasn't cheap!]
