Speaking of, what are you shooting (with)? I have almost convinced myself to go digital, but since I don't know anything at all about them and the net gives me massive amounts of data I can do nothing with, I will just start asking. Please and thank you.
Amazingly I have a 9 year old Sony Mavica that uses floppy discs. I'm still back in the dark ages of digital.
I did have an occasion to use a Canon [I think is was RS something] a few weeks ago that had a zoom feature. If I were to buy one now that would be what I would look for. I think the megapixels are not as important??? There was a thread running about a week ago on this subject.
