I just trod on my old sony cybershot camera. Now it's the best slim one in the world!
And I'm looking at getting into digital slr cameras next time I buy one. Not sure what to get yet but I have plenty of time to consider it. |

Hold out for the inevitable Rebel Xti replacement in the pipeline, unless you want more professional. |

lol yes..the initial investment is near $40 for a charger and 8 batteries. im no idiot. plus they are insanely invonvenient. its much more convenient to get a second canon battery since it COMES WITH an external battery charger anyways. and not to mention lithium ion batteries last MUCH longer than stupid rechargable alkalines. oh and must i mention the charge lasts longer! oh and the canon battery is smaller. fits in the pocket better. ;) :p |

| one thing that is a no go for me with casio's...their ing data cable. its NOT standard. you MUST use the dock unless you have a media reader. and if you lose the data cable you cant just run to the local electronics store and get a mini usb cable. its some proprietary cable. i have lots of mini usb cables. makes it easy if i cant find the one i usually use. |

Time for a brief hijack.
I think I'm going to buy a f/4 Canon L 300mm prime lens (with IS), and use it with a Canon L 1.4X tele-converter. This will effectively give me a 420mm prime lens (apparently, with no loss of image quality due to the tele-converter as well).
I was looking at the Canon L 100-400mm, but I know that it gets a bit soft at full focal length, which is how I would be using it 90% of the time.
Thoughts? Comments? |

afaik, using a converter actually softens your photos a bit and you lose a couple f/stops. |
