What up all -
So i've been spending all my time shooting with my new Canon EOS 10.1
when my final paper is due next week. Arrrgh!  (the camera is awesome
though, so I don't really regret it).

I was considering the 55-200mm VR lens from Nikon as a not so
expensive telezoom.
After reading the specs and  some review on the web (e.g.

In a Sony DSC W55, while viewing photos in playback mode, the photo is
not being shown in full screen mode -- it is displayed, say, in only 50%
or so of the screen. Anybody having experience with this camera knows
why? Or if this is normal?

Just helping a friend understand his new Sony DSC-W55 digital camera. I
just realized that it doesn't come with the usual USB mini plug but with
a "multi connector" socket and a corresponding cable.
Why does Sony do that? Now one can't assume to use a friend's USB cable

I have been using the non VR 18-55 and have been generally happy with
the results.  But have had several shots that later would have benefited
from VR.  
Any one here have any experience with this new lens?  Is the VR useful

I have a  Nikon F2 Body in great shape. Purchased New and hardly used.
I would like to sell it and purchase a D300.  I have no idea of what
it is worth today?

My daughter gave me her 8 year old digital camera a Canon powershot S20
with a memory card..FC16M..and I want to buy another memory card...that
would allow me to take more pictures.

I'm in the market for a DSLR and had a look at the Nikon d80 at the
store the other day.
It looks like a great camera, and feels (albeit still a bit small),
perfect in my hands.. With a rugged construction and good weight..

Is it possible to use a memory card reader to transfer pics you had read
from a memory card to Dell Vista computer,, back on a memory card so you
could take them to be developed  at say Walmart or???

Look at this photo from a Sigma DP1 beta:

and look at picture sdim0085.jpg ( second to last ).  Get the jpg file
and look at the picture full scale and look at the bright pink shoe

I recently bought a Kingston 4GB USB 2 Thumb Drive.
I use it mainly to store Edited Pictures.
I do not NEED to format it but I CAN, with Win Xp.
Is there any advantage in formatting it in FAT 32 vs FAT 16? or vice

I'm just getting into digital photography with a new DSLR (Nikon D40x)
and would like to take my camera out on the bike path for some nature
photography.  I'm curious as to how other photographers venture out
with their gear.  Do you recommend a handlebar pack for easy camera
