<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 149441, member: 4552"]As already noted a Nikon is a really good camera but greatly overpriced. You really are basically paying for a name. I've got at least one of each camera on that list above and then some. The only camera I don't have and never have had is an HP. My all time favorite cameras are the Hasselblad and the Leica. I don't htink there is any camera that will ever beat them for quality of photos but the cost is outragious. Bronca is a grat camera but I don't think they are made anymore and lenses and parts are becoming scare. Nikon is probably one of the most popular lately although when Sony was into the Mavica series you just couldn't beat them for quality but the limitations of a disc instead of the latest cards makes them outdated pretty much. As to the one digital cameral I tryto have with me all the time is my Fuji S7000 with a 2 gig compact flash card. The S9000 is not much better and a little to heavy. </p><p>The Fuji S7000 has 2 Macro settings, has a place for both a compact flash and an XD card in the camera at the same time meaning no matter what you always have a built in back up usable by swithching with a press of a button. One more thing about the Fuji is the 55mm filter ring and since I use a multitude of filters, that size is extreamly common. With both cards I can easily take several thousand photos utilizing about 3 to 4 megapixels and even hundreds and hundreds at 6.3.</p><p>Oops. Getting carried away with one of my hobbies. Back to Nikons. I only have one presently and it is great for just about everything.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
