You most certainly have seen dpreview's comparison between the D50 and the
350D already. If not, here it is:

Consider the lack of MLU and the use of SD cards, and Canon 350D takes the

In my recent quest to get a decent picture of the moon with a 25 year
old Celestron C90 and a Canon 20D (I've given up, BTW), I decided to
see if the Celestron was really as bad as my lunar images implied.  I
did a quick and dirty resolution comparison with a Canon 75-300 zoom

I have had my Canon 300d for over a year now and have been very pleased.
However, I have recently had a problem with the Canon File Viewer Utility
1.3 software that came with the camera. When I try to launch it from my
desktop it appears briefly and then shuts down. The only way I ...

I have a zoom lens (24-135) with a distance scale that tops out at
7ft...the next mark is infinity.  If I'm trying to take a photo at
night where autofocus won't work and the viewfinder is too dark to
reasonably focus manually, what is the best way to ensure focus?

I am planning on buying one of the new Sony DSC-R1's when they come
out. Rumors have it that they should be available in the next week or
so. Original release dates were late October...but I have heard they
are now shipping to some retailers. Anyone have a line on this ? Anyone

I retired as a newspaper guy (started as a photog; started writing;
retired as editor) almost six years back. Photography always had been
my #1 hobby with infrared as my favorite format.
I own an absolute truckload of film cameras of various size formats.

Let me start off by saying I'm very new to photography.  I bought the
20d to take to Europe in hopes of getting some large prints made.  It's
my first D-SLR.  Ever since I bought this camera I've had trouble
getting photos to come out well.  I don't think I've really ever gotten

I'm looking for the lowest priced decent digital camera that will
record movies with audio.
By decent, I mean name brand and at least 3 MP. Thanks!

Have any other new 5D owners noticed anything like this? Initially, it
started naming my images as you'd expect: IMG_0001.CR2, IMG_0002.CR2, etc.,
but now for some reason it's decided it wants to call them _MG_0050.CR2,
_MG_0051.CR2, etc., and while it's only cosmetic, it is driving ...

So I'm upgrading the BIOS on my motherboard's disk controller, and lo and
behold, Photoshop CS2 gags. It essentially tells me that it thinks I might
be a crook and am trying to use it on a different machine, and will *not*
reactivate on-line. So I call up the number it gives, and ...

My Kodak C330 has an adjusment for exposure compensation and another
for manually selecting ISO 80-400.  The manual says that both affect
picture brightness, so what's the difference between the two?

just fyi:
"Adobe has today released v3.2 of the Camera Raw plug-in for Photoshop CS2.
The new version adds official support for the Nikon D2Hs, D70s and D50, as
well as Leica's Digital-Modul-R back and the Hasselblad H2D (the latter two
