The Best Camera
So if you're following our blog you know we've been saving up for a camera. A wise man, Chase Jarvis once said in his book "The best camera is the one that's with you" Recently my best camera (6 years) sorta gave up on us and is not very dependable anymore so all those pictures on my last several blog entries were taken with my phone. I love it because it's always with me but I want something with a little bit more quality. I need some opinions. I know some of you have nice cameras. Can you give me a rating of yours? I'm looking for things like megapixels, sensor sizes, and your own reviews of it. I want a DSLR but I don't want to spend more than $1000. Your comment would be greatly appreciated. Enter your comment here or e-mail it to me. Thanks.

Not more than $1000?! I don't like spending more than $200. You don't want to know anything about mine.

Remember your son is a technology nerd? Everything has to be top of the line when it comes to technology. Our old camera was for its time. But we're also looking into learning the art of photography.
Hey just read your status about wanting to get a new camera. I take my pictures with a Nikon D40. For a starter dslr, its great because it gives me the advantage of learning how to use a dslr. It's lightweight and easy to carry around. I usually fit mine in my purse. And there's always room for improvement. I got it for 375 but that's because Circuit City was closing down. The only downside to mine is that I'd have to use an adapter if I wanted to use a lens other than the kit lens. If you want more functionality and quality. A Nikon D80/90 works well too. You can use any type of lens with that. I love the 50 mm f/1.8 because you can use it for low-light situations and portraits. It's also cheaper than the f/1.4. Only difference is the sharpness and clarity of the pictures. The cost difference is about maybe 700. (But that's just the lens.) Other brands you may like are Canon and Olympus. If you get any of those three you won't go wrong.

Hope that helps a bit and have fun with getting a new camera.
