fujifilm finepix f10 6.3mp. i love this camera it has a rechargable battery that came with the camera and it lasts so long. the only problem i have is i cant find any xd cards in any store?? i have 2 xd cards one came with the camera and the other we got when we bought it, but i would just liek to know where to get more incase i wanna take lots and lots of pictures away from home. it takes really good pictures.

I love Fuji cameras Smiley My fuji takes XD and SD though. The best place to get them from if you don't mind ordering them is www.onecall.com, its  actually Huppins online store. They always get my stuff to me really fast and have some fairly good prices. Here is a link to their XD page.

i own a canon S3Is and i love it....6 megapixels, 12x optical zoom, flip out screen and rotatable(if thats even a word, lmao)

i wanted a step up from a point and shoot and this one was perfect. i eventually want an SLR but this one is perfect, just 1 step down. lots of freedom to make lots of adjustements. didnt want to get overwhelmed with an SLR, but that will be my next step

Those are very nice though. Cheesy I almost got one as my back-up.

I currently have a Canon A630 8 MB point and shoot and my original 35 mm Nikon N90.  I still take slide pictures and macro photography is one of my favorite types of pictures to take.  If you take a good macro shot, you will always get a Wow from whoever sees it.  I haven't set up my rig to photgraph my snakes and geckos yet but I am planning on doing it soon.  I will then get the slides scanned Hi-res and put a couple on the site.  I have a macro lens that gets in really tight on small subjects so I can't wait to see the results on my geckos eyes. 

I know I am a dinasour still using a 35 mm SLR, but I have been spending all my money on my reptiles lately and can't save up for the Canon Eos I want.  I would have to buy all new lenses too.  I may go with the Nkon D80 or the D2H That way I can keep all my lenses.  You have to be careful with Nikon if you are considering them.  I had a problem with the battery meter on the camera and also heard of someone else having  the same problem with their digital SLR.

Eh, not really. I still have a 35mm Canon Rebel.  Some people still prefer film.  I like it. But I think I'm too accident prone to use it very often.

I use to be very big in to this but it has been a while (about 10 years) so I am just learning with the digital. I was going to get an SLR but I figured it would be best to go with a P&S for now. I just picked up the Kodak z1275 12 mp. I have had it for 2 days and I am loving it. I think I may look into a used rebel for xmus. Only thing is there are so many gadgets on it. And no way to do the old fun stuff like shudder speeds and such. It makes me feel old.  Cry

O_o YOu can change everything on a Canon rebel. Shutter speeds, ISO, seriously.  It's a lot like using a film SLR. More so than a digital camera compared to a film Point and shoot.

I'm surprised not many people are using DSLRs. I'm in the market for a camera to shoot a wide array of objects: rhacs, cars, herps in general, fish, and just general photog. I'm leaning towards the XTi, but the Nikons look better every day. Anyone care to offer up some advice via PM?

I've been using an old Canon IXUS 500 (5mpix, +4 years old) until lately, where I got a free change to a Canon IXUS 75... (7.1 mpix, nice optic, brand new), but... it's not good enough! As you can see on my pictures in the other forum it focus's one place, with nearly no depth. I want better pictures, so I will return my IXUS 75 during the next forthnight, and then get a EOS 400D (which have been falling much in price lately - at least here in Denmark).

So now: IXUS 75
Soon: EOS 400D (18-55 standard optic)

Canon's are better in that they have better lenses/sensors. They are a lot less noisy that Nikons. And also have better color quality.  But really a camera is only as good as it's lenses. And you are going to find one single lens that can't be ideal shooting all of those objects. 

And on the other hand. I don't many people that DON'T use digital SLR's. But I guess we don't hang around the same set.

Nikon D80 owner here!! I started with a sony Mavica - the floppy drive one. Then I moved to a Fuji S7000 which was pretty nice until I found out that it wouldnt take the pictures I wanted, I got great pictures of the race track but no cars  Undecided  Then this year I made the jump to a DSLR and have been having a great time with it. I just recently picked up a 50mm 1:1 Macro lense and cant wait to see what kind of picture that will take.  I also have a Macro Flash on order, so that should help with some of the shadows that I have been getting.

Take care

I just got a Canon power shot sd1000 and love it! It takes way better photos than I expected.

I have always been a photo buff. I love working with actual film in an actual dark room, but don't have access anymore. I wanted to get a DSLR but couldn't afford it right now. I love what I eneded up with, though.

This is the first pic I took with it. This was just a quick shot to make sure everything was working right.
