Camera Conundrum

Thu Jul 16, 2009, 9:53 PM
So, I'm thinking of getting a new camera. Yeah, I love the photos I take with the one I have now, because it has a spectacular lens and great manual focus tuning, but let's consider the rest of the camera for a few moments:

1) 6 years old
2) uses Compact Flash memory cards
3) only 3.2 MP (2048 x 1536 rez)
4) has only one flash setting: blinding
5) slower than crap
6) battery hog
7) limited flexibility (can't modify shutter speed, etc.)
8) maximum 3x zoom (digital zoom is worthless, so I don't use it)

I want to get a digital SLR, but I'm torn between a Canon and a Nikon. I have my dad's old 35mm Nikon SLR, and I'm curious if anyone has ever successfully used traditional SLR lenses with a digital camera.

So... what camera would YOU recommend?

Hi! :wave: Sorry for the slow response. I was away for a while, but I did want to stop by and thank for adding me to your watch list! :)

Hey, no prob! I'm a little slow on responding to stuff, too :)

Great stocks, btw... maybe I'll use some of them sometime!

:D I think people like me are the reason for the old saying "better late than never" :lol:

Thanks...and I've love to see what you come up with! :)

Haha! You and me both. I'm not a morning person, I'm a dedicated procrastinator... heck, people should just be happy I manage to get anything accomplished at all ;)

My aunt came in as I was browsing your gallery, and we've sat here for the past ten minutes looking at your jewelry and absolutely loving it!

You're a very skilled craftswoman.

Thank you! I just started making jewelry early this year, and have learned a LOT since those first few pieces.

I like your in search of a third comic. Very well put together and it's funny. Good job!

Heehee, thanks! I still have at least one more of those to do, but I gotta *sigh* be able to get the time to do it.
