Most cameras have digital zoom.
All reviewers say it's worthless.
Crop it and enlarge it in Photoshop, and the pic will be much better, they
say.

Assuming I use a EOS 20D with say a Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 or comparable
Canon lens (perhaps a Canon 50mm F1.8 if you think it's better), I
want to try to do some 18x24 inch portraits.  
I tried to do some reading and from what I read as long as I have

I am thinking of buying one of these printers but I see the colours are all
in one cartridge. This would imply than the moment one colour of ink runs
out I have to replace the whole cartridge. Or does the Epson 1290 cleverly
mix colours with the ink it has left?

I've had a Canon AE-1 Program film camera since 1984, and over the
years built up a decent collection of lenses and converters.  Since
1999, I've migrated to digital, using the Olympus 3000Z.  Now I'm
thinking of purchasing a digital SLR, and am leaning toward the Rebel

Need some suggestions on some good mail order websites to purchase a digital
camera. I searched New Egg, but they don't carry the model I am interested in.
Thanks!

I am now using a Nikon D70 with the 18-70 zoom. I am thinking about buying
the Cokin system specially for the gradual neutral density filters. I was
considering buying the P series but am now wondering if it would not be

Hello Americans,
What is the law and practise for photografie.

Leica Germany, to help me with this situation.
In November 2004, I purchased a Nikon 28-70 f2.8 lens from Mr Hoesel on ebay
(username palmahendrik). The lens has been lost in the post. Mr Hoesel has

The ACK-E2 AC adapter that I use on my 20D (also for 10D and Digital
Rebel) stops working after a couple of hours.
When it is first plugged in the camera's charge indicator shows full
charge, as it always ought to when the adapter is in use. After a

I tried to look in google but all i get is housings not filters
Any one can tell from where I can buy an underwater filter for the
digital camera ixus 700
Any macro kits available for this camera?

I'm Looking for a camera with an intelligent self-timer combined with
continuous mode.
Ok, let me explain: I'm travelling alone on my motor bike.  I want to
take pictures of myself in motion.

Who has had experience with Contax lenses (especially medium
WA like 24mm) mounted via an adapter to Canon digital EF mount
camers (especially full frame)? I have seen some references where
these lenses seem far superior to Canon's.

Any recommendations for image editing software that uses "Artifical
Intelligence" (AI)-- neural networks for "image reconstruction;" for
filling-in scratches in simple e.g., (line drawing, 8 color) images?

If a person owns Photoshop then would he still need Photoshop elements
3?
Can Photoshop elements 3 do things that Photoshop can't do?
I'm thinking that Photoshop Elements is a deduced feature version of
