for others here is a good site for cameras. http://www.completephotousa.com very good buys. also minolta has given up on digital cameras and has sold to sony so they are liquidating all the maxxum D7 and D5 digitals. the D7 is a high grade camera. interchangeable lenses new cost was 1500.00 . wally world is selling them off for 499.00. that is a real bargain. also pentax K10d is the ultimate camera coming out in november. list is 899.00 all pentax lenses are able to be used on it. that is right all. most digital cameras need a special lense to use on it not pentax. pentax is having a big sale on lenses now too as they usually do with 100.00 off on most. it is 10mp or better camera with stability control in three axis. also the site above has many canon and nikkon cameras . good luck shopping.

Hey Mark, if you want a good one, I recommend Panasonic FZ20 to start with. Though there are upgraded version like FZ30 and FZ30, the FZ20 is quite good for its price and packed with SUPER features. Just look at Pacifichrono's pics!!! ;););) Ok still not convinced???? Here are a few of pics taken when I had the FZ20: Last edited on Sat Nov 4th, 2006 11:49 am by watchboy |

Fantastic shots. I looked at the Panasonic but went with a Kodak. I decided to stay in a moderate price range until I am ready to amke the jum to full DSLR. In the time being I have been pretty pleased with the result of the Kodak. I still have a lot to learn and am the weakest link when it comes to taking pix. Example below... how about giving the crystal a good wipe!! Pax Attachment: NBY-16.jpg (Downloaded 8 times) Last edited on Sat Nov 4th, 2006 12:33 pm by Paxman |

Well Mark, you need to practice and practice and PRACTICE. I did that and get the most out of the Panasonic and hence I upgraded to CANON Digital Rebel XT after could not find it (FZ20) could give me more! I am surprised that the FZ20 is hard to find in stores now cos of the FZ30 and the FZ50 in production. Nevertheless, there is a good shot to start with. But you must play around with the F stops too. Remember the more(higher) the F stops, the more vivd is the surrounding. As for this shot of yours, you are using F2.8. Try using higher F stops, it will bring out the other details too! And here is the same pic that I tried to get rid of the reflection: Attachment: NBY-16.jpg (Downloaded 7 times)
