As much as I love photography, I am at best a rank amatuer. Just curious as to what cameras my fellow shavers use when posting pics! I have a Sony DSC-P8, a 3.2 megapixel camera:

Howdy Randy,
I bought a Nikon Coolpix 4500 (http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/specs/Nikon/nikon_cp4500.asp). Talk about rank amateur.. This was the cat's pajamas in prosumer cameras at the time. Note: It has been sitting on the shelf for about 3 years. It is really very capable, but also complex to negotiate the various settings. You can set it up as an automatic, point and shoot and it does a reasonably good job. BUT, it is capable of so much more. At JF's urging, I have been shooting my SOTDs with it with varying success. Yesterday's is a case in point. Charles (QED) chose the light gold font for QED. It tends to bleach out under the flash-fill I got with the automatic setting. After viewing, I (re)chose the close-up format, select best shot, 9-zone focus, etc, etc.... Guess what. You can read the QED. :thumbup:

either a casio exilim ex-z4 or a canon digital rebel

I use a Canon Powershot S400 Digital Elph. I beat the crap out of it for years, and it still takes crystal clear pics (gotta love that metal body). In my opinion, Canon is the best consumer camera manufacturer out there (uh oh, I bet I catch hell for that one).

Canon Powershot A80 - great, flexible camera.

Konica Minolta Dimage Z3. Have not learned how to use it other than setting it on automatic and taking pics.

Hi all,

My everyday camera is a Cannon A40. This is a discontinued model but it serves me very well and does everything I need it to do. I will probably be upgrading to a Nikon or Cannon digital within 6 months or so. I have a Nikon SLR that I use also.

I've used a Sony F-717 before. I now use a Sony F-828. I am planning on upgrading to a Nikon D70 or D70S in about a year.
