I don't have a wishlist, don't even know much about good cameras anyway. But I would like some sort of an SLR camera someday.

I think that's Canon's only Point and Shoot camera line with built in Image Stabilizer.

I think you need glasses.

I got a Kodak Easyshare V-603 camera with video recording. I'm looking for a new camera so my pics can be crisp and sharp and also can record HQ videos as well.

[Pablo M 201 35]

I have a Panasonic DMC-FZ8 (Nickname: Sweetness). It works wonders since I've been able to improve my photography alot with it. But time to step it up even more.

 

Nation, here is my wishlist:

Nikon D60 with a 18-55 mm lens, with also a 55-200 mm lens.

From there I'll keep going up the levels of DSLRs and whatnot.

[Q25toJamaica 9]

Canon SD1000 ELPH for me

[R1Toasty 0]

Well, my gear is as follows, prioritized by order of most frequent use:

1) Canon HV20 for video recording and some stills.

2) Canon EOS Digital Rebel (the original 6 MP one) which won't be replaced until there's a new lens mount.

3) Canon PowerShot S500 as something small to take with me for better pictures than the HV20 can take, though it isn't used a lot.

4) My iPhone's camera... listed for the sole purpose of it being a last resort if I don't have anything else on me.

[Q25toJamaica 9]

Noob question- Which setting is for 1/125

 

I got all the 1", 1"3, etc.

[error46146 1,007]

1/125 is the shutter speed

 

that controls how long the lens is open to get the photo

[Harry 1,090]

I'm a little unsure what you mean, but 125 should be displayed on your camera as 125 turning the dial on your camera clockwise.

[Q25toJamaica 9]

Nvm I found out that my camera does not have the option.

Doesn't matter, it will help the rest of us out.

Some cameras have different denotations for things.

I currently shoot with a Nikon D200 as lead and D100 as second. I'm happy with my gear but will probably become a FotoPig around Xmas. And then live on dog food.

I heard dog food can be good for you. I've dined on cat food for a while and I'm still here.

[metsfan 2]

I am going to upgrade my stuff this autumn i hope. Also get a monopod, carry case for it, a window mount, and hopefully some other stuff. I guess we'll see!

Metsfan, just so you know for the subway:

Photography, filming or video recording in any facility or conveyance is permitted except that ancillary equipment such as lights, reflectors or tripods may not be used. Members of the press holding valid identification issued by the New York City Police Department are hereby authorized to use necessary ancillary equipment. All photographic activity must be conducted in accordance with the provisions of this Part.

 

Though that doesn't necessarily apply to Amtrak...

I think that's Canon's only Point and Shoot camera line with built in Image Stabilizer.

 

The A570IS, A590IS, and A720 have image stabilization. I use an A580, however.
