I can add details to a photo using these, but
I need to know the best way to do it so that
these details can be used as a database.
What database software can access the entered

Are there any P&S digitals that have a wired (switch contact) remote
option?  An IR remote would be a second choice, but a distant second.
I appreciate this is a common feature on DSLRs, but they are too big,
heavy and costly for the application. Other desirable features

At first I thought this lens was the best thing since automobile GPS but
I am extremely disappointed.
On a tripod with the VR turned off, nothing was sharp at full crop. I
took the same picture with a different lens, same focal length and the

OK, seriously. Why is it that 50% of all photo contest winners involve a
B/W photo of a newborn baby and his mother's exposed breast? And the

It isn't a faked photo.  It was shot with the 400 f/5.6L from the

OK. This is your chance to change my image from the scene as I saw it to
whatever you think looks better. Post a link and let us all see, you

any way you want, until January 31, 2007.

I've got a really basic question: Where does the image you get in the LCD
and EVF come from ?
Does it come from the sensor ?
If so, how does the shutter speed works, do they close the shutter, discharge

Not sure if this is the right group for this or not.....
But after the death of our parents my sister has collected
a box of Super 8 cine films of our childhood (plus suitable

I am in the market for a SLR-like camera and I am particularly impressed
with the Nikon Coolpix 8800.  According to dpreview.com this camera was
announced on 16-Sep-04 which suggests to me that it may be due an update.

Just a quick few questions if anyone has one of these camera's.
Is there a flsh sync socket or do you have to slave off the built in flash

My (Pentax DSLR) Photo Blog is just one-month old today, since it was
launched on Nov. 26. I'm quite surprised in the (huge) number of people
visited and how hot the participation have been for all those comments
and emails I have received.

Are there any digital cameras out there that can be programmed to take
a picture at a regular interval (say, every 15 minutes?) - WITHOUT
being tethered to a PC?
That is, I could just place the camera somewhere and plug it into the
