SRC Member madman Posted November 14, 2007 SRC Member Share Posted November 14, 2007 I'm using Sony Alpha 100 DSLR. They came out with a newer Alpha 700 which costs 3 times more Thanks, very nice photos.... your camera is beyond my budget though . I'm getting a point and shoot DC with a budget of 600bucks, any reccommendations? ****(think i'm posting in wrong thread ) Quote Watch your thoughts’ they become words.

jervismun Posted November 14, 2007 Author Share Posted November 14, 2007 I'm getting a point and shoot DC with a budget of 600bucks, any reccommendations?****(think i'm posting in wrong thread ) Any of the popular Japanese brands will work well within that price range... I only go for Sony cameras so that the whole family can share the same memory cards. Those new face detection feature cameras are fun to have... the sensor will detect and chase the faces in the viewfinder Quote Tank 60x40x40 Optiwhite Glass Tank Sump Elos 500 w/ Tunze Overflow Protein Skimmer Skimz Kone SK1 Return Pump Hydor Seltz L30 Wavemaker Hydor K1 Illumination 150W + 2 T5 Chiller Arctica 1/5hp w/ Aquabee 1000 Water Top-up Tunze Osmolator Dosing Pumps Grotech 3-Channels Calcium Reactor Deltec PF 501 Computer Aquatronica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
