AndyD Posted June 3, 2003 Share Posted June 3, 2003 listen to Keldyn, he's got the best 4 megapixels digital camera out there. a combination of great design and great quality. :) thats why I'm asking :) If I do decide to spend the extra dough, I'll probably end up with the S400.

AndyD Posted June 4, 2003 Share Posted June 4, 2003 Quick. Anyone thinking of getting a 400+ camera head over to techbargains.com and get the Dell stackable $45 code. That with the 10% discount and free shipping for, the S400 comes out to $408. Deal ends today. Will order mine tomorrow hopefully as I already talked to a CSR and the guy gave me to tomorrow to decide :) One downside though :( If you plan on buying the S400, be prepared for the month wait. 30+ days supposdely for the camera to arrive due to backorder. I'm willing to wait for that price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aem4162 Posted June 4, 2003 Share Posted June 4, 2003 oh my....these cameras are all to die for...but they all seem so complicated and I'd probably break one getting it out of the box :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keldyn Posted June 4, 2003 Author Share Posted June 4, 2003 The beauty of them anita is that they are actually very simple. Because the quality is so good it is easy to trick people into thinking you are a professional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dcrad Posted June 4, 2003 Share Posted June 4, 2003 please dont tell me thats where you live Keldyn, that place looks like such a nice place to live, makes me sad at just how poo my home town looks and having to look at it day in day out. Id love to have such a nice place like that to live in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keldyn Posted June 4, 2003 Author Share Posted June 4, 2003 Yep. That is where I live. Not a bad place at all :) P.S. These pics have been resized and compressed slightly so there is some loss of quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aem4162 Posted June 4, 2003 Share Posted June 4, 2003 Maybe. Are these cameras diff from the regular film cameras in that they don't have all the thingies you need to turn? I tried one of those once...it was a horrible experience but it turned out it wasn't broken that bad. My mom has a nice 35mm and she gets pretty good pix off it. She'd prefer that I don't use it. My pix are always fuzzy or I move the camera when I click it. I'll stick to looking at the great pix here. You guys did a wonderful job on all of them!!! Keldyn, can we have a "pretty pictures that we took with our cameras" forum or sub forum? It would be a common place to go to look at what people here can do....
