My Spending Spree!

[Hayd93]

In my oppinion you dont need to spend 400 on a camra, there are better things to spend your money on. Also, how is that acting knowledgable?

Ye but what would you spend £400 on ?

You may like something like boating so you spend £400 on a boat.in his opinion he may think you wasted your money.We all have differnt opinions

I do photography as a hobby and did it in college, my advice would be a camera made by Nikon because they're sturdy and work reasonably well with red colours Plus loads of professionals seem to use them. A Nikon D-50 is the decent, baby Nikon which comes with a standard 18-55mm lense which is good for close up photography and portraiture, but if you want to spend a bit more perhaps a Nikon D-80 which processes images faster and creates images in higher quality

The camera I have, to answer someones quesiton is £400 on its own, with 18-55mm lens.

I do not have anything better to spend my money on, no My computer is coming up to 3 years old this July, and its had it.

You just proved how little you know about cameras. Just because it has more megapixels does not mean it is a better camera. A high quality 6MP camera would beat your entry level 10MP camera in terms of quality for example.

I have the book in front of me now. It says max pixels are:

3888x2592 *File Size up to 3.8MB* (My Camera is only a 10MP, the top cameras go up to 12MP)

I think it works out at 42'', well says Photoshop but in the book it says A3 - both big.

Plus I can change the overall picture size, by going into the settings and selecting the type of recording image. Atm it is on Large Normal, but I can go up to Large Fine, and right down to Small Normal Another reason for getting a better computer is to store and edit all these photos. With one photo getting up to 3.8MB... I am going to use the GB very quickly.

Clearly not. A 6MP digital camera is no where near the quality of a 10MP D-SLR...

Depends on the quality of the CCD, lenses and the skill of the photographer. Also the software and algorithms used in the camera play a significant role

[DarrenToogood]

Yes, but what I am saying is a 6MP Digital Camera is not going to get the same results as a 10MP D-SLR from Canon

Depends if it was a poo D-SLR against a good digital camera.

I will run Vista on my computer indeed. With 4GB RAM, 500GB HDD and a Core 2 Quad processor, my new computer will certainly be the best for editing all my photos.

I am sending in applications to Stock Photography websites within the next month, and I am also going to setup a white box.


Just opened up a document size of 3888x2592 and it is 55'' in width, which is the same as 1.5m

If you knew the first thing about editing and vista, you would know that windows is for crunching numbers and if you ant the best editing pc, it would be a mac. Just because the specs are good, doesn't mean its good for editing.

Vista is great for editing, I suspect he will use some program like Photoshop which is available on both platforms. Significantly faster on the PC because the specs will be more "bang for the buck".

Agree'd here.

Macs are much based on image editing, although Vista can run smoothely with it.
