Hey Guy's,
Just wanted to show off my toy I buckled and dished out some dough for a new digi cam. I picked up a Fuji Finepix S3100. It's one of the super zoom cameras with 6x optical zoom. It has all the bells and whistles im used to and a super lens to boot. So if anyone is looking for a cheap camera im selling my Kodak Dx 3700 with 128mb SD card, software and transfer cable for 50 USD including shipping within N.A.
Here's a pic of the new camera..HEHE..im like a kid in a candy shop Im taking pics of everything..The poor cat has been chased all over the house..LOL

You made a good choice Bryan. Fuji camera's are excellent, and the quality of the lens is on par with those for SLR's, you can get some nice pic's with it. I have the S5000, and love it.

Cheers

Cheers guys..ITs a little power house of a camera..I have already taken over 300 pics with it and the quality is just amazing ..I still have to play around with it with the models cause that is a whole different ball of wax but the shots so far are very promising and will only get better as I get used to all the camera's functions.
Cheers,
Bryan
Here are a few shots from the garden..the colour capture is true to life..the only thing I did to these in photoshop is to reduce the file size.

Good purchase Bryan. I got a Fuji Finepix S7100 last year and I am loving it. The quality of pictures is really amazing. The super macro setting is a real gem as well. Enjoy your camera!
