Greg,

For a starter in digital photography the question remains...

1) Try to economize and try a cheaper camera to see if digital photography is for me?

2) Buy the best I can within reason?

3) Wait 12 months and buy it for 50% on the dollar?

My advice would be to try and buy a camera with 1.3 megapixel capability for under $400. I really like the EpsonPhotoPC 700 and it is on sale now if you look around. It is out of production so there probably aren't alot floating around.

The other camera which you can get pretty cheap is the Kodak DC210plus. I have seen it advertised for under $400.00. Kodak also sells refurbished cameras on their home site.

Obviously, I am not going to recommend a camera that uses media other than CF. I really liked the Fuji MX-700, but it uses SmartMedia. The Olympus and Fuji lines are really classy. It would be phenomenal if they would consider switching.

Maybe others on the thread have suggestions.
