I think my cameras hate me

What a sad week ... this week I've had not one but TWO cameras call it quits. (Warning, dorky photo tech talk ahead.) 
 
First, the little camera that could, the Canon PowerShot SD800 IS, is in the shop again. It would take photos, but only blurry photos. It was funny for a while (ha! look! it's blurry! how funny!) but I thought that the blurry look was only cool for so long, so it got sent in.  
 
Then, the good ol' Canon 5D took a turn for the worse last Friday. First, the LCD screen stopped working, then the ISO button was down and out, and then the white balance was a no-go, then exposure compensation was not working. Seeing as some of those functions are crucial to taking a somewhat good photo, the 5D was sent in to Canon on Saturday.  
 
But there is a light at the end of this sad, camera-less blog post: Last night I bought a shiny new camera. Hooray, new camera! It's a 40D, to replace my 20D. And the 20D found a new home with my friend and client Janna! When I've got some photos with the new guy, I'll post 'em!
