Very nice, Harry! I have a Canon SX30IS, I think it is. Very good camera.

Your selection gets the thumbs up from me Harry. Will probably be outshooting my ol' DSLR in no time. Looking forward to seeing the experiments.

Still a Canon fan after all these years.

WOW! That is a nice camera!!!

Only as good as the operator..haha

It will take plenty of practice for sure, but hopefully it will work out.

By the way....with the newer model, the SX50 coming out, this one was marked down a good amount. In fact I got it for a little over what I paid for the last one.

With cell phone/smart phones and such, cameras are one of those items that are changing to stay afloat. You can get a really good outfit for literally hundreds less than a few years ago.

I like Canon and Nikon. Name brands seem to be the only way to trust anything these days, and half the time that isn't all that strong. I have a Canon S1Xsomething or other, and an even older Nikon that has amazing optics, but is a bit clumsy to operate. I was a mess with the 35mm SLR, too. I keep hoping there will come a day when the computerized digital hoohah reaches its peak, just before the next big thing arrives, and I'll pounce on it, then keep it forever. What's the chances of that? Keep us up to date on that new camera, it may be the one I'm waiting for!

I got a new one too! Must be camera buying time. I got a Nikon Coolpix L120. Kinda looks like a point and shoot and DSLR. It'll probably do more than I'll ever use. It replaces my Coolpix 4300 which I have had for years. The new one is 5 times faster at being ready to use, and probably does 10 times as much at less than half the price. Yep, the cell phone cameras have really taken a chunk out of regular camera sales, just like digital did with film. :) Now to read the instruction encyclopedia. :lol:

LOL, yes it is. I researched that one and almost picked it.
