Owl Photography and Videography - Price drop on Canon SX40 HS

I wouldn't normally resort to this kind of shameless commercial plug, but the price just dropped significantly on the camera I use. This is a good deal on a great point-and-shoot Canon SX40 bridge camera. I paid significantly more for mine from Amazon and it took all the pictures and HD videos you will see on this page. Its perfect if you are thinking about getting more involved in photographing or filming birds and wildlife as a hobby without going all-in on a professional outfit you'll be reluctant to damage or lug around the wilds. At the price point of $339 its a deal! Do your research.  If it goes back up in price wait it out.
 This post goes into more detail. I will never recommend a product I don't own, use, and enjoy! Another benefit of Canon point and shoots is that there is a whole community of developers making enhancements to the software to make them do all the things you want like HDR, RAW and time lapse and motion detection photography. Its called CHDK and its amazing. More on this software enhancement in a future post.
