[AT] OT- Digital Cameras

[Bigdog]

Mike,
    I have a Canon G2 digital.  It's not one of the cheaper ones either but it has many features I like such as the same hot shoe as my Canon 35 mm so I can use my external flashes on either camera.  There are several choices for picture resolution and it also uses the compact flash memory cards so with a $15 card reader and a spare USB port I can download the camera.
    The lower end Canon cameras have many of the same features and the picture quality is superb.

  Hi All,
  I am going to take the plunge and buy a digital camera. When I began
  looking on the web however, my head started to spin. There seems to be so
  many kinds and styles that I don't know where to start. I know that a lot
  of you use digital cameras at shows and to show us your places and
  assorted stuff. I would be interested in going to school on what you've
  learned about digital cameras. I don't need one with all the bells and
  whistles, because I probably would never use them. I'm looking for one
  that is easy to use, good quality with good battery life. I've seen some
  that require a separate dock to get the pictures into the computer. Do
  they all need that, or can you hook some directly to the computer? Thanks
  for any advice.

  Regards,
  Mike
