I am contemplating moving from my Powershot G1 to a DSLR such as DR or D70.
The question is, should I just get the body with the cheapest f/1.8 50mm

outdoor and indoor and move on to a 35-200 Zoom lens later on, ...

We're just back from a snorkeling trip in Belize.  Can anyone point me
to a tutorial on using PhotoShop to correct the color balance in these
pics.  Any pointers?
Any and all help appreciated.

I was playing with my Sony DSC-V3 when I remembered I had a Vivitar
2800-D in a bag with my old Cannon EF (cannon required content).  I
wonder if this thing works on my new Sony.  The EF (film slr has
contacts + edge).

Hi, I am looking for user comparisons between the following Canon 75-300mm
f/4.0-5.6. USM or 100-300 f/4.5-5.6 USM.

I would be grateful if some could explain to me with my fairly limited pc
understanding how one PC can control / use more than one printer.

We have a old canon A20 which must be getting on for three years old -
currently mostly using it for 6x4 pictures so 2MP isn't a massive issue,
although the option to print bigger or crop would be useful, hence more mega

Does anyone in this group have any experience with the Epson Photo R800
printer?
I would appreciate any comments as I am seriously thinking about
replacing my Stylus Color 740 with one.

I am starting to make preliminary plans for a possible 3-week trip out
