I noticed that my camera isnt getting the job done & im jealous.

What camera are you guys using & how much ??
i have a crappy kodak that i got as a gift & it sucks.

 

cannon powershot G5, i love it. its got alot of **** to do on it but not enough to be toatly lost like the rebel-D.

 

 

Canon Powershot A80. It was $300 bucks at Best Buy. Has 4.0 megapixels, I love it.

You cant go wrong with Canon

 

g5 hands down....

 

bang for the buck, G5. for just your leisure photography uses.

 

... it's a little bit more expensive, but a Canon 10D with various lenses.

 

10d owns!!!!!

but i got a g5.... awesome for what i do!!!! hella good shots too!!!!

 

Is the Canon the only camera H-T members use ???

how about Minolta, kodak, nikon, fuji, sony or olympus. whats wrong with these ?
I remember about 3 monthes ago there was a post of the h-t pic site.
it was a bunch of gues from here who had a site listing all the camera specs & photos. anybody have a link ???

 

I use a Nikon D100, not really available anymore as it's being replaced by the D70

Why did you chose it over the others ?

can you post a pic from the camera ?

 

Already had a ton of Nikon lenses, plus it's better

It all depends on what you want to be able to do.. most SLR digi cams are very similar in capabilities.. just how you use it.

I have a Fuji FinePix S7000 which is fine for me it's got some SLR features .. If I had the $$ I'd go with the Nikon or the Canon digital Rebel,

Camera $599
60" Tripod $40
12" Tripod $15
Bag $40
128mb CF $50

here's some samples of mine.

socket focus


craftsman focus

I don't think there's anything wrong with the other brands, I guess it's just personal preference. Anyways, honestly I don't really think it's as much the camera but more the person using it. I've seen a lot of "professional" photographers with camera's worth more then my car that can't shoot quality images if their lives depended on it, while I've seen guys shoot with regular point and shoot cameras that put out better images. Oh well, here's the link I think you were talking about: http://www.h-tphotocrew.com.

 

what do you want to use the camera for?

 

There are a lot of great cameras in the sub $400 range that are perfect for people who just wanna snap pics. Just about any 3-4 MP camera will get the job done.

IMHO The Canon G5 & Fugi Finpix S7000 are great buys, great for shooting snapshots and enough control for the aspiring amateur

As far as DSLRs go the Canon Digital Rebel & Nikon D70 are both great buys. I'm using a Canon Digital Rebel and am more than happy w/ it, few sample shots.

 

Canon Powershot A80 does the job for me.

 

I respect all the input but i like to keep cost down to $350.00

$600 shipped and its yours.

Canon Elan 7E later when I get around to it/$$$ I will prolly get one of the cannon digital SLR cameras. For now im sticking to 35mm plus most places burn 35mm images to Cd for a reasonable price!

 

I'll be getting an A80 next, probably the best camera if your not looking to spend a fortune. But I'm Canon biased anyway.

 

I use Nikon's coolpix 4300 great camera awesome pics. but it takes some getting used to like any other camera.

 

I have a Canon 10D with 24-70mm f/2.8<FONT COLOR="red">L</FONT> USM

Body cost $1,499 and the lens goes for $1,299. I haven't been out shooting much because I do not have the proper filters on the camera. 77mm lens do not have alot of "cheap" filters available. Most of my images are either washed out or underexposed. I've had it for 3 weeks now. Replaced my Canon Digital Rebel, which gets my vote for most bang for the buck! Here are some images.
