At 2am?

I am to a certain degree...but can't remember exactly what I have anymore...
Canon Rebel Xti
Tamron 18-270 (something around there)
Canon 430ex2 flash

I think that's about it. I'm not exactly a photographer by any stretch of the means, but I like taking decent pics .

Cool espicially at 2 AM

It's amazing how we're all into the same sorts of things. I am, but not seriously. I have a Canon EOS 40D and EOS 50. Selection of non-L lenses. And an Olympus OM-1 with 50mm, f1.2 as well as a selection of other lenses. Unfortunately this doesn't get used these days - I miss my Kodak Royal Gold 25 and Velvia 50, of which this body shot many rolls!

I a couple of point-and-shoots. They're the wife's cams........

Love the Infrared, wish the film was still around. What glass do you have?

I like cheap (£250) point and shoots. All I want to do is frame the shot and take the photo - as quickly as possible.

But I really like the HD video capability these cheap point and shoots now have. They are ridiculously good at it - but the capability has been there for quite a few years now. And they will shoot it for many, many hours on one memory stick. Just brilliant for holidays where I seem to spend most of my time walking around with a camera in front of me taking movies. Love watching them years later, too.

These things are just so good these days I don't feel the need for anything better.

Agree at least you dont get stuck holding the Bag with dated technology
they are inexpensive enough to give away if you want the latest..............

BUT! can you hear the difference using cables..............

 

[User211]

More money will give better results - if pushed in the right direction...

I have a Nikon D300 that is built like a tank and I take most of the shots of my family with. When I want a camera I can kind of put in my pocket I use my FujiFilm X-100. This has an apparent focal length of 35 mm and can be set as low as F2. I usually shoot is Aperture priority mode. The Fuji X-100 is fast becoming one of my favorite cameras. I love its retro looks and the APS size sensor is amazing.

So true really. Over half the world's greatest photos were taken on equipment so bad that virtually anything at all you buy these days will be better than it.

Hey amey I am gettin a Squeezebox Touch this week! Hope I wont cry....
