We could have owned 2 Roburs, instead we opted for a company D200. (Being the head of the purchasing dept has it’s privileges.) I should book you for a consult/visit and you can document the good, the bad and the ugly in hi-res, 10.2 megapixel. I think there’s good exotic free-range mushrooms around…

The Casio has served you well, and will probably continue to serve you as a wonderful pocket camera for a long time.

If you decide to get a digital SLR, I can speak from my experience with the Canon “Digital Rebel XT” (also called the 350D). Its a great camera. Combine it with a real flash and a diffuser and you can get some very nice results.

The only complaint I have is that it doesn’t have a secret super-high-speed ISO 3200 mode like Kia’s 20D has. And that I don’t have all the lenses I covet.

Canon dude. Canon. Silky smooth cmos captures, the luscious 10-22 lens available (for a price), best optics in the biz. The 350D is a decent camera too, and the stock lens (17-55 I think) is a great deal.

Still, I’m constantly amazed at your photos. Gives proof that for many photo situations, it’s the eye of the photographer that matters. I wrote elsewhere that you need a certain baseline in tools, and while that is still true to achieve some photos (esp. my fave, the super shallow focus shots), you prove the genius can be had with a Casio.

The D200 would suit you very nicely. The secret to a an amazing camera is that you adapt to it so quickly it feels like the camera is adapting to you. I love your photos man, and i would love to see what you could do with something like a d200. All in good time. Keep it up man.

that’s really impressive. I’ve been so used to my digital rebel, that I can’t go back…. I’m using my girlfriend’s camera right now, a fuji finepix. I took a full card worth of pictures and got 3 that weren’t completely terrible.

Played around with the D200 for many hours last night. The more you use it, the more you want it.
