I'm looking for a reasonably priced (< $50) program that will:
o  Allow me to batch resize images using a custom max width/max
height.
o  Sharpen after resizing.

Hi, All!
I'm in love with my 6 month-old Nikon Coolpix 5700 when
shooting my favorite subject - car pictures - in daylight.
I am completely dissasified with its flash performance not

I have a new Nikon D70 with the kit lens (18-70 f/3.5-4.5).
Upon buying the camera I immediately slapped a UV filter on the front of
the lens to protect it.  However, I have recently learned about the
reflection properties of non-coated glass, and that my Promaster UV

I see the most recommended treatment /du jour/ for the vexing "dust
specks on sensor" with digital SLRs is a brush that is charged up by
spraying it with compressed air. Problem is, the company selling these
brushes is extorting money from people, IMO, by charging around $100 for ...

"Slow" here means 13% growth which is pretty healthy.

Study Predicts Slower Digital Camera Growth

this is odd, but it looks like you can put the CF memory in a
coolpix995 the wrong way around:(
ive never seen anything like this before, even a cheapo card reader
has the right shaped slot so that it is impossible to put the card in

The D2H is on blowout at $1995 new from various places.  At that price
it's almost an alternative to the D70.  It's a lot bigger and heavier,
but faster and more rugged.
Is this something to seriously think about?  Does the extra 2

Photos Can't Escape It, Either
A while back here on BFB, I pointed out that even a photo of a fat person
on a stock photo site could garner negative comments.  I posted a comment
calling the other people on the carpet, and there's been nothing there

Been a while since I uploaded photos to be printed. Previously I used
photoaccess and shutterfly with pretty good results. Just wondering if there
are certain services that are particularly good with large digital prints
such as 16" X 20".

I would like to know if there is some digital camera which
would look like some old (classic) small camera. For example
which would not have LCD display. Something I could play
with like with manual camera only that it has digital sensor

Right, I need to take two photos:
1) Photo of some stars, this is going to be used as a background so the
more detail it picks up the better!
2) A cloudy night.  As you know, the clouds are a weird colour of grey

HELP!
Been using my wee Fuji FinePix A210 since April of last year. Went to
download some pics this evening to my pc and nothing happened. It made the
usual daa-duum noise but no prompt.

I've been shopping the closeout deals for a 10 X optical zoom camera.
So far The Minolta Z1 and the Olympus C 740 seem to meet my zoom lens
requirements.  I will be using the camera primarily for snapshots but
plan on using the high zoom factor to help compose the shots.  I have

I just bought one to replace a FinePix 3800 that went to a premature
grave. (I wasn't happy with the service from the 3800, but I had just
invested in a 256meg xD card, so couldn't justify switching formats.)
The 3100 is almost identical to the 3800, with one critical
