What're you shooting with?

[SoMissTV]

Someone asked me what camera I was using to shoot these photos. All the photos I've put up so far were shot with a Canon Digital Rebel that I bought in late 2004. It got so expensive to shoot black and white film that I was able to convince the Mrs. to let me drop nearly a grand on this camera. To date, I've taken over 3500 photos with it. This camera is perfect for me. This is a photo of the camera with the standard 18mm - 55mm lens attached.

I have a 75mm - 300mm telescopic lens, which when converted to digital is actually 112mm - 450mm. It's incredibly handy when trying to focus in on a particular detail.

I would love to purchase a true fisheye lens, but I don't have $700 laying around (unless y'all want to take up a collection)...

But enough about me. What are you using?

[EricStratton]

I, on my limited housewifey budget, have a Fuji FinePix 4.1
It does what I need it to do....and travels really well...If I forget it in my pocket,
I don't worry....It's replaceable...and it's gone through dropping, being squashed, and having a grandson give it a liberal dose of drool!
Thanks for asking!


Nice camera's you got there SMT...and nice job using them! ;)

Kodak Z710.

My phone mostly.

CRawls has one similar to SMTV's.
She doesn't have the super-dooper lens thing with hers though.Yet.

[katzeyez]

I have the same kind as Cap, but it's a D Z710

[BassCatter]

Sam shoots with an Olympus Evolt 500 and whatever that last one was, that I bought her after dropping her little one in a canal in Miami.

[goldeneaglemom]

I have two: the new one and the old one

Old one Sony Cybershot:

I have not had the chance to use the new one enough to even pretend how to use it. The pictures I have taken have been great!

Does anyone know where photography classes are taught? Like an adult ed class?

[carsalesguy]

i also have a DSC-W1 that is just like that 120 but 5 megapixels. bought it to match dad. they take really great pictures....only problem with mine is the battery door is broken on it. dad's still has all the little stickers on it from where you put them on display showing all the features and stuff

[Fotno]

SomissTV can probably help you out with those photography classes.

He knows people.LOL

[SoMissTV]

[bpitt]

Some kind of Panasonic camera and my cellphone, which sucks.

[Guru]

A standard Sony Mavica. I kind of left the manual stuff years ago, just didn't have the time anymore and that was sad.

hey I think I have one of those- does it take a floppy disk?

[Guru]

Yes it does. I got the idea years ago of getting one of these because of that and because they are basically indestructable in industry.
Been a good camera.

[optimistik1]

I had one (Sony Mavica) right before the one I have now...then when my new computer DIDN'T have a disc drive for floppys, I changed cameras...it was a great little camera though!

[BassCatter]

This will make SoMissTV drool........There's a photog on the platform taking stock footage for internal articles......here's the camera he is using.

Price Tag????? $29,000.00

[SoMissTV]

Yeah, that sounds about right for a medium format camera these days.

I think this Mavica has a memory stick in it for computer download but because it came with the easy floppy disc I just always used that.

Don't drop it! :cool:

[Guru]

Don't let anyone borrow it for a Peacock Bass fishing expedition.

[BassCatter]

pfft

[bpitt]

Yeah, Let Basscatter take THAT on a fishin' trip.

[BassCatter]

Not only did they let me carry and shoot with that camera, I also got to shoot with a $8,000.00 Canon.

THAT is a very scary sight right there----

don't go near any water and set them down SLOWLY

[BassCatter]

They're insured, but you're right....when they let me play, I treat them with kid gloves.

[SoMissTV]

Don't go near any water?!?

Do you know where he is right now?

[Guru]

He's sitting inside waiting for a Saturday night steak.

[BassCatter]

No getting ready for the next meeting in 10 minutes and then Steak Night........That's my office in the picture by the way......the one that looks like somebody threw a grenade in a filing cabinet on the desk.

[Sugar]

Here is what I got and just my luck they dropped the D60 on the shelves a week later.
http://i169.photobucket.com/albums/u205/eyescene/Nikond40_grass.jpg

and my 70-300mm lens. Can we say heavy? Probably not for a man.

Heres a picture I took on vacation in Ark, last year as we were passing by. It's a bit too soft.

Awesome pic Sugar!

[BassCatter]

Sam shoots with an Olympus Evolt 500 and whatever that last one was, that I bought her after dropping her little one in a canal in Miami.

The last one I bought her was a Fujifilm Finepix S1000

[Sugar]

I almost bought the Olympus Evolt 500. I sorta wish I had now. Right now I am looking into getting something I can carry anywhere with me.

I have seen lots of pictures taken with that camera and it is awesome! The picture of the dog below was taken with the Olympus Evolt 500 and the Zuiko 40-150mm, f3.5-4.5"
