Q: What digital camera do you have...

[Zim Hosein]

and why did you buy it?

 

[ElFenix]

canon S40

because it was time for digital and i got mine for $350, about 40% off at the time. plus it has tons of manual features and it isn't big and ugly like the A40 was.

 

[YetioDoom]

Sony dsc-p73.

Bought it because my previous camera was a sony (p30) which I was happy with.

 

[Anubis]

Olympus C-720 UZ 0 because i upgraded from a 1.3 mp Fuji with NO ZOOM, got it when it came out and it was great also got it because it had a long zoom

Nikon D70 with 6 Nikkor Lenses - because i wanted a Digital SLR and i allready had a bunch of Nikon F-Mount lenses

 

[ROTC1983]

Digital Rebel I just read so many good things about the camera and i purchased it. Have been happy ever since.

 

[KLin]

Canon S30. Because I was looking to spend some money on my birthday.

 

[SilentRavens]

Nikon 5700 - When I bought it, it was the best prosumer camera in my price range.

 

[crab]

Canon D30 - because film was too expensive

 

[Excelsior]

Panasonic LC33

 

[GTaudiophile]

First Digicam, December 2000 - December 2001: Canon PowerShot S10
Second, December 2001 - December 2004: Canon PowerShot G2
Third, December 2004 and beyond: Canon EOS-20D

Edit: Why? I share my PICS through my web site, not by printing them, so digital makes perfect sense. And in the end, since I don't print, it's cheaper I think without having to deal with film and development costs as well as hardware costs. The digital darkroom is just as much an art form through Photoshop as a traditional darkroom, and there is so much freedom in being able to preview, erase, and take like 500 shots on a single CF card! It's just far more flexible for me.

Canon A70. I got it because it would do everything that I needed and more. It was also the best bang for the buck at the time.

I moved up from a Kodak DX4900 to a DX6490. I wanted the long zoom - 10x. More advanced than a basic P&amp;S, but plenty of auto features for a camera newbie.

I've been debating lately whether to move up to a DSLR, but decided not to. I don't want all that heavy stuff to drag around, and I don't want to give up the versatility of one piece of equipment that does everything I want it to do, even if it isn't as fast to shoot as I'd like. I'm waiting to see if the DX7590 has enough improvements to make it worthwhile.

Use the link in my sig to get to my gallery (Sixone) if you'd like to see samples.

 

[Linflas]

Nikon Coolpix 5700. It was my Christmas gift last Christmas.

 

[spidey]

Digital Rebel - wanted an affordable digital SLR.

 

[NutBucket]

Canon S200 - Bought it cause it was cheap $200 and relatively small. If I need something more I bring my EOS and a few rolls of film.

I actually just bought another EOS body/lens since I couldn't justify spending at least twice as much on a DSLR. Besides, the Digital Rebel feels like a toy compared to the one I got.

 

[Sluggo]

Currently have 3

Canon S400, wanted to upgrade from my S200 Thinking of upgrading this to an S500 or Sony T1

Minolta F100.

Good reviews and it was on a special offer and I wanted a digital camera so i got it.

Pocket size so I can take it about more easily.

[RossMAN]

Canon PowerShot A40 and S200.

If I were to buy a new digicam today, I'd buy the ultra sweet Canon PowerShot S410 or S500.

 

[Actaeon]

Heh. Cell Phone Camera. I needed a Cell Phone .

Well, I ordered a Canon A75, it'll be here Tuesday. At first, I wanted the Fujifilm A340 (4.0mp), it was very cheap, and seemed the best deal for the money (It was about $180 shipped online) but it uses some XD media format, that was ridiciously expensive. I priced a Canon A75 w/ a 256MB CF, and an A340 with the 256mb XD, and the CanonA75 was actually priced lower!

Even though it has less Megapixels, I think a 2000x1500 (or whatever it is), is big enough for me . The Canon A75 puts out longer videos with sound, supposedly better IQ, manual shutter/whatever settings for more advanced shots, and a few other things. Plus, everyone here also recommends Canon's, so I figured they were recommended for a good reason.

So are you still learned to use your A40?

Oh yeah, just picked up an A80 for the gf yesterday. $254 w/ free 64meg CF from OD. Not bad
