I'm interesting in the sequence of events of light which comes from an
arbitrary scene, travels through a digital camera, and ends in a
picture (e.g. bmp-file).
Does anybody know some good references / Websites about this topic?

I'm thinking of purchasing a Nikon Coolpix 4600 and Lexar 256MB SD
card.  Would it make a difference to purchase the 32x high speed card?
Will the camera recognize the high speed card?
Opinions, please.

I bought my wife an HP R607 (4 megapixel, Pentax lens etc) for Christmas.
After 4 months we have finally given up with it.  The flash is underpowered
and anything over 6 feet appears in darkness.  The pictures it takes are
grainy and low light photos are grey and disappointing.  ...

I'm seriously considering getting an iPod Photo and have noticed that
Photoshop Elements is the software that is recommended (required?) in
order to view specific collections of photos stored on the device. I
already own the full Photoshop software (about 2-3 years now) for my PC

I've been using an evaluation copy of Elements 3.0, and it's now
expired and I want to evaluate Nikon Capture.  Should I remove
Elements first (I don't like having its background processes
running anyway, it buggers around with my camera download)?

I am new to digital photography. After much research, I determined that the
Canon a95 (5MP) was the best camera for me in my price range. The main
problem I am having is that the pictures aren't sharp enough, or at least
they are not as sharp as I think they should be - even the "in ...

Just bought a used Apacer Disk Steno CP100 on eBay. I have been losing hair.
Did the firmware upgrade. I have come to the conclusion that there may be a
compatibility issue with the Lexar CF cards. My collection of cards include
a Canon 32 meg CF card, two Sandisk 128 meg CF ...

For some reason, my server does not have the message which you addressed
to me, or the responses to it.  Probably a Supernews crosspost filter.
I tried to send the following message to your despammed mailbox and got a

One-day sale, one per customer, $499 for the Olympus 8080 at Frys. Dang, I'd
be there if only it had a higher ISO with low noise. Probably a 20D or 350XT
in my future. But geez, $499 for that camera... makes you wonder what might
be coming out soon?

I was out in the pines this weekend and taking photos with my Canon
Powershot A75. It's almost 1 year old. Anyway I turn it on and the lens
gets stuck coming out. The camera after that just dies. Turning it on
and off I hear a slight clicking sound but the lens will not move.

I used the Sunpak 5000 with success with my N70, now I changed to the
D70.  Has anyone had problems using this flash?

Why do I never see this camera mentioned when talking about the best compact
P&S camera's?  Is the Cannon A-95 really that much better.  I like that it
only uses 2 AA batteries (included with charger) that are said to take up to
420 shots before charge.  Large LCD, etc.  On paper ...

Sorry but I find the manual to be clear as mud on a moonless night.
1. Can anyone explain is really simple terms how I can force the flash
on the D-70 to always flash?  I have tried to find that setting but all
I can find in Program (P) on the mode dial is auto and turn off the
