I got a new digital camera...Follow

Not working there Twiztid. Quit pulling an Empyre.

maybe he lives in a little red x?

Which dorm is that? Looks like the six-pack.

This was mine freshman year.

You're kind of a slob. I don't know why that surprises me...

It was the brown sweat stain on the sheets you haven't washed in three months, buddy-boy. You know that chicks don't particularly dig dudes whose idea of cleaning up consists of shoving old pizza boxes on top of dirty sweat socks piled in the corner, right?

Who's the guy in the hall, and why isn't the towel on his head?

Wow, that's a large dorm room... my ex's room a couple years ago was about 9ish feet long and 7 - 8ish wide.

wow kind of homey like a halfway house, or government funded assisted living.

So, I finally went out and bought a digital camera, and I'm dying to try it out.

How many pictures have you taken of your wang now?

What kind of camera did you get anyway?

I've been thinking about getting a digital but I'm not sold on the idea. Unless I can get one that will crank off 4x6's that are identical to the ones coming from my SLR, I don't see the point in it. I know you can get photos printed on photographic paper (well, not the same as "real" photo paper obviously since it'd lack the same emulsion) at those little Kodak booths in every drugstore but I'm still not convinced I'd rather preserve my precious moments in life that way versus the traditional route.

Sony's got a 5MP camera out for around $300. I can't recall the model #, but I borrowed one from a bud and it took excellent pics.

I was well pleased with the quality of them. Better than my crappy 35mm by far. I actually got the photos developed at Walmart. Their little photo station for digital cameras is pretty functional. I picked and chose the photos I wanted, sizes and quantities. Came back the next day and got em, since 8x10s take longer than the 1 hour thing they state.

I have a Canon Rebel G, and my 300 dollar digicam has the same quality for 4x6's, and it's pretty close on 8x10's. For most decent digital cameras, the limiting quality factor is the printer printing out the picture, not the camera itself.

Here's where I say digital is better and worse. The ink and paper used make a big difference when printing your digital pic, the ink could eventually run/fade/burst into flames (well, maybe not the last one).

However, that happens to traditional photographs over time as well. With digital pics, you just whip out your DVD as xythex so astutely pointed out and print you up a fresh copy.

This is Canon's prosumer entry into the digital forray, and it'll get the job more than done for anyone except professional photographers (i.e. guys and gals who don't blink at dropping 20k on a lens).

I'm kinda with you, Joph. I like to have actual paper pictures to put in my album. But I also like the ease of a digital camera. Just take the pic and it's on your computer in seconds. I've used some of the online printing sites (Yahoo, Snapfish) and had some nice results from them. Quality is good and the price isn't bad either. I usually have some of my better digital pics printed out at one of those places.
