Hi there!
Just wanted to know what camera you use to make your pics.

I use a sony ds-75 with 3.3 meg pix

Thanks for your feedback.

P.S. Which would be the next cam you would get?

purchased for US $540 just a few weeks ago. Can't get over the clarity/resolution! Still only in 'auto' mode, however.

Kodak DC260 -- only 1.6 megapixels, but it works great for my purposes. I won't buy a new one until I can get SLR-like features for under $1000.

Nikon Coolpix 950... I guess my next would be the Coolpix 5000

I use the Nikon 990. Looking at the new 5000 though with 5 megapixels!! It's on my Xmas list!

Happy Holidays!!

i use an canon elph110 2.1mp. most the pics i take are when i visit the gf and family. i like it cause its tiny with pretty good quality; it fits in my pocket (though i don't carry it there). i won't upgrade for awhile i suppose. btw, its only $400 now + extra battery, cf card, and case (through rebate).

I use a Minolta DImage 7 5.1 Megapix.

Great camera with auto and manual focus as well as video clip ability.

I use the Kodak DC3400, is great for my needs. Has 3mp and is easy to use (even for me).

Olympus Camedia 2100 UltraZoom.

Only 2.1m pixels, but for what I use it for, nature, shows and err.... stalking, the x10 zoom is incredible, equivalent to a 35mm camera with a 30-380mm zoom, plus my 1,45 tele taking that to 550mm

These are resized to 640x480 to give you an idea of not the quality, but the zoom. All are hand held, no tripod required as the camera has a proper optical, not digital stabiliser built into the barrel. They are not colour corrected or cropped or altered in any way except to resize from 1600x1200 to 640x480, then JPEGd using about 40 compression and 27 smooth.

FULL OUT

FULL IN X10 (380mm equiv on 35mm)

FULL IN PLUS MY OLYMPUS 1.45 TELE

The camera will go further in using a digital zoom, but I don`t count that so these pics don`t use it.

I can`t wait until Olympus do a 6 million pixel, which will finally equal a 35mm when printed 10"x8".

UK price about £550 inc vat, I`ve had it a month or so, these were taken the first day I had it
