damn pretty trees ya have there in wv (Y)

my dog, Buddy

Can't live up to the quality of you guys pictures. It's just a Kodak EasyShare 3.1MP

Any suggestions for a new camera to buy that can take very nice pictures? Anything sub-$350 USD is fine.

[aem4162]

awwwwwwwwwwwwww :wub:

see what the canons have to offer for under $350

I just got a new Sony 3.2 megapixel. 250 dollars. Didnt want anything super expensive. Im prone to losing things... lol

the pic looks alot better, i just had a hard time making it so it can fit into 250 kb

I purchased another Fuji camera, I love the lens they use.

This one, an S5000 upgraded me from the 3800. The S5000

is a little more on the "prosumer" side than a point N snap.

I like the 10X optical zoom, RAW mode, and some manual

adjustments of shutter speed etc. The only downside is

that when you shoot in RAW mode, it sucks up the memory

card like a big dog since it's the raw data from the CCD.

In what is called 6m mode (3.1 megapixel + 3 interpolated)

I can shoot just over 80 pics, in RAW mode I can shoot

only 9. Soon as the XD cards come down in price (which

should be soon according to some camera sites) I'm going

to be getting a 256 meg. In RAW mode, that will give me

36 exposures, which, unless I'm at an airshow should be

enough until I can dump em off onto my PC.

I'd really like one of those $5000+ digitals like my cousin

has (he's a NFL photographer) but they are coming down

in price it seems evey 6 months. Won't be long until

the 6megapixel cameras will be down in the mid 300

dollar range

one more of my italian greyhound and golden retriever (buddy, sammy)

good quality this time

[Keldyn]

Awww I like your doggies kairon (Y)

I took these couple shots in the dark. They came out very nice I think.

nice pics keldyn.

i got my first "press pass" to concert that's gonna be on nov. 7th! hopefully i'll be able to show the pics to you guys...

[Spyder Veteran]

keldyn very nice. i love night shots when they turn out good. the bright foreground on dark background really makes it pop

[Delsphynx]

Wow - nicely done Keldyn (Y)

A while back I mentioned I was getting a Canon EOS 300D (Digital Rebel) - well, I got it, and have been playing with it a bunch. Still have tons, and tons, and tons to learn. Plus, I need to work on my post-processing. Here are a couple I've taken (and the first I've posted to a website anywhere - heh, too intimidated to post on Fred Miranda's site or dpreview...)

[Spyder Veteran]

wow that pic is incredible :o

[Delsphynx]

I think the frame actually doesn't help this one - need to get some Photoshop framing actions :pinch:

[Keldyn]

Cheers guys.

Delsphynx: That looks incredible. Brilliant clarity in that shot.

AAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

As some of you may know, I'm considering buying a Sony DSC-P52/72 (https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=108932)

Will I be able to get anything like the kind of quality pictures you guys are getting with your cameras ??? (I know some of yours must be at least 2/3x the price)

If anyone has either the P32/52/72 (only difference is the zoom on them) could you post some pics?

[Circaflex]

Do you mean the one with the tram?

yea the one iwth the tram i think it would look very nice

andrewfee.. theres no reason why that camera couldn't take the same quality photos. its a 3.2mp. i know thats not everything, but as long as you can adjust settings manually (which is what most of these have done i'm sure), then you're good to go.

i can take similar quality pics with my 3.2mp canon a70 with manual settings. that canon EOS digital rebel though is in another league altogether. you should be able to match keldyn's quality with practice. he's a good photographer :)

[BroChaos Veteran]

Delsphynx: are those with the kit lens?

Ok, cool I'll try to get the camera then. I've not really done any photography before so it would take me a while to be able to take good pics, but I did expect that - I just wasn't sure if I would be able to take great pics like those without spending huge ammounts of cash.
