Why do all digital cameras basically suck?

you cannot properly represent an analog world in a digital domain.

Once you get to an atomic level, isn't it pretty much a digital world? I mean, you only have so many elements you can build things out of.

You take awesome pictures with your cams. It shows that the photographer is really what holds most people back.

I also like your A80 pic of the critter from Mount St. Helens. I also have an A80 and have pics from Mount St. Helens, including pics from the top.

PS- Do you have a larger version of the picture of you feeding the chimpmunk? I like how its hand is stretched out. Cute little ah heck.

Definitely not my gallery. That's Wilson Tsoi.

I know it belongs to a guy names Wilson Tsio, but I don't know who you are... I just see a screenname.

God, those are amazing shots for a P&S. But along what Jules said - there was some processing of those shots afterwards.

i dunno man i'm not a photographer by a longshot but i love digital camera pics... only downside is when your not so tech-savvy buddy tries to e-mail 50 1600x1200 pics to you...

its about the greatest gadget in the world. i can go somewhere, snap off 300 pictures, have them all be nice because i retook bad photos on-the-fly, plug them all in a laptop and swap them with friends, all in a few snaps of the finger. no, they dont suck

been busy reading reviews on various sites. Of course you won't see most problems in small-sized pics, but if you print a 7mp image as a full-page high-res photo, noise and other defects become visible. To guys posting a 800x600 pic, note: it's a 4x size reduction, so it's hiding artifacts. Look at it in the native resolution to see what i mean.

but nothing is perfect, so i'm gonna buy something along the lines of a A640 or A710 and just let Photoshop do some of the work
