A place to discuss your digital camera, and all the stuff you had to learn and buy in order to use it. Link your best pictures, brag about your camera, and help confuse newbies trying to pick their first digicams.
A listing of digicam ownership by poster will be maintained and updated on the thread. That will allow you to ask questions of an "expert" on the model you might be considering. Look for " DIGICAM OWNERSHIP REGISTRY" posts.

After you decide on the model of your dreams, check for the street prices on it through the following page. Make sure to factor in the ratings of the retailers, too, as dealing with some of them may not be worth the savings.
