Eileen I'm a total muppet with cameras. All I do is, I get it out the case, turn on & snap! The quality of the pictures is always very good. Mine is a few years old now so slightly different to the model Toms posted but basically the same. To load the photos I get the cable and plug one end into the PC, other into the camera. Press ok & bravo. I have been very pleased with mine. |

Karen I have a Nikon Coolpix L3 and I think it is a great camera, got mine for about £100 |

L2 & L3 must be the updated version of the old 2100 & 3100. Can't remember how much mine was  |

That sound great but hardly any different to what I have so may look at a SLR???? is it even if it means waiting and saving up - don't do credit or credit cards  Mine at the moment is a Olympus (don't know which one) takes an XD card. 3 x Optical zoom, and digital zoom which I don't use it seems to blurr the pictures. So I may have to reconsider that Coolpix sound like a great camera Dm, gofor it downloading is easy a cable comes you plug into the back of the computer (I leave mine in) then the other end you plug into the camera and on my camera screen/viewfinder a little box pops up and says "do you wnat to download to somewhere" I click okay and off it goes on its merry way downloading my pictures.

It depends what type of photography you wnat Kazz. A DSLR is a better camera because you can change lenses etc and do more things. They have manual settings to enable more range etc. than a compact which have preset settings. You cant alter the shutter speed on a compact, meaning a photograph taken at speed will often be blurred, not always of course but for the most part from what I have seen, the quality is nowhere near as good. With a DSLR you have such a wide variety of choice, yes more expensive and the lenses are too, but so much more choice. I wouldnt change for the world now. Downside, no video mode, bigger and you will need to carry a camera bag. Here are a couple I took that I know I couldnt reproduce to the same effect with a compact.     |

Hiya Dawn thats it, thats the quality I am looking for. Does the the D in front stand for Digital? see thats really what I want good pictures don't mind the camera bag at all. What sort of price range are we talking and is 2nd hand an option? I assume the better the camera the more expensive but by the same tokendon't want to go OTT. Karen |

You mad lot!! They are brothers though! When I bought my camera Kazz it hadnt long been out, with the memory card (compact flash card) it came to just under £700. Now though, you can get the same for around £450. Canon have just bought out a new camera, the 400D, the next one up from mine (and Fran has this one) its around £100 more. Second hand, yes by all means, but get hands on first, you can have a play with my camera any time, its the smallest SLR on the market too, much better than the bigger ones I didnt like. Dawn. |
