Message:: [QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 859795, member: 4552"]The problem asking that question is it's sort of like asking who should I marry, what car should I buy, What city should I live in, etc. Everyone will suggest the camera they use, not necessarily the best for the price range you may be looking for. Also, many use cameras that are excessively large by todays standards and become bulky for lugging around compared to the point and shoot variety. Cannon is really popular but mostly due to advertisements. Nicon doesn't do that much advertising so their popularity has dropped somewhat. If you go to the average electronics place you will see a really large variety of cameras and some are just as good or better than the more popular ones. Myself I presently use a Sony Mavica 88, Fuji S7000, Fuji S9000, Cannon S410, Sanyo VPC-S880 and a Samsung L73. All are really OK but for taking along to parties, events, etc., even the Fuji's are to bulky. Remember the if your only going to have one camera, make it one to take everywhere and for taking photos of coins. Of course you could look into a Hasselblad H3D11-31. Just can't beat that 31 Megapixel quality. And most lenses for that camera are under $4,000.00 :rolling:[/QUOTE]
