1. I have no experience with it cause I'm loyal to Canon
But it received 4.5 stars out of 29 reviews. Not bad at all. Looks like you got a really nice camera. I hope you end up posting some pictures here.

2. Thank you. I am very pleased with the picture quality thus far.
I bought a 512 MB SD card for it and rechargable batteries, so I should be able to shoot all day trips or events between downloads. I most certainly will be posting some pictures as soon as I take some I'm proud of. What model Canon do you use? :)

3. I have a Canon 10D and a Canon Powershot S-50
The 10D is my serious camera with interchangable lenses. The Powershot is also a very good camera, but has a fixed lens. I like that one cause it's compact so I can take it with me to football games or parties without having to lug my heavy camera backpack.

4. Hmm, I'll have to look them up and check out the features you have.
I am interested in photography, but had been putting off buying a decent camera. My Sisters made this choice for me, and I've been very pleased, but I aim to hang out here and if I find another with features I like better I'll jump on it. :)

5. I'm not sure if you're familiar with this website
www.dpreview.com

But it's definitely the best source when looking into buying a new camera. It has a feature where you can compare cameras side-by-side in case you've narrowed your selection down to two cameras.

6. Thank you for being so helpful! I added that site to my camera folder.
It looks like a site I'll spend some time on! :-)

7. I have a Kodak Easyshare 6230
Edited on Mon Jan-24-05 12:24 PM by auburngrad82
I love it. It's very easy to use but I would definitely get a memory card for it. I could only hold about 10 photos with the internal memory. With the additional 128mb card I can hold over 100 photos.

Here's a few photos I took with it:









It's pretty versatile. I've taken decent daylight photos, night photos, and action photos with it. The only drawbacks to it that I can think of is I'd like to have a camera that zoomed more than 3x and it would be nice to have a camera that would allow me to play with the exposure to some extent.

8. I like your pictures, thank you!
I picked up a 512 MB card. I figured with it and more sets of rechargable batteries it would be good to go all day. Again, lovely pictures you have there, Auburngrad
