New camera = PICS
Well I finally broke down and got a digital SLR Nikon. This thing is amazing. I will be spending the rest of my life learning the options. Finally a camera that what you see through the lens is what you get. The bumper emblem was shot only inches away. Hope you enjoy. I bet photobucket is going to scale these down so hope they look good.

Have you tried taking pics at night yet?
My digital camera (Kodak something) tends to blur the pic whenever I take pics at night. If I use a tripod its ok. If I use a tripod with the timer on its even better. Tried playing with the settings but no luck -- image not coming out as I expected.
Been thinking of getting a new digital camera...maybe on black friday, Xmas or day after Xmas....

Nice shots!
Congrats on the new camera. Post lots of pics!
However, the standard has been set by Z06 Jim with his Canon S3 IS. His photos are simply awesome! I've come to realize it's not always just about mega-pixels. The lens and the image technology have a part to play also.

Nice. I recently got an Olympus 10.1 mega pixel SLR. This is one of my first attempts at night shots.
