New digital camera

[Pete]

So I decided to get a new digital camera. I was thinking of a digital camcorder but figured a still camera would be fine.

Thanks MM, I read up on them from the link you gave me and got a Sony Cybershot DSC-W1.

Cool "little" camera. It is so small I almost feel cheated. 5.1MPixel, 128MB memory stick, will hold 51 High res pics, shoot 6 minutes of video, 3X zoom.

Took some pics of Boy in action and it words great.

I got a Canon powershot pro 1 a few months ago and it is real nice.

8 megapixel, 7x optical zoom. It has both manual and automatic capability for just about everything. And even the ability to program your own preferences to two different rotary switch possitions. I used to take pictures at 1600x1200 and get a couple hundred pictures on my 256meg card, but recently I have just been taking them at max resolution (3264x2448), so I only get about 72 pictures with low compression.

I also have a sony cybershot dsc-p5 which I use when I only want to carry around a pocket sized camera. It's a nice 3.2 megapixel camera but it doesn't seem to capture motion well.

You erased those practice shots we did, didn't you.
