Hi Bermuda! I was just curious.. I know at one point in the last tour you had mentioned you were thinking of getting a digital camera. I've always wondered what kind of camera you use when you are taking your candid Al shots you stick on the official site, do you use a digital now and if so, what make/model?



Thanks!

I actually got my first digital almost 4 years ago, the Sony DSC-F1 (which pre-dated their Mavica line!) I later got the Kodak DC290, and am currently using the Nikon Coolpix 990, which I got just before the tour ended last year.



It's very feature-rich, and the resolution is more than enough for the web. It also makes sharp 8x10s!

Oooh! Coolpix 990 - drool .. we have the model right before that one, my friend has the 990 and it does indeed have lots of fun bells and whistles. Thanks for the info!

Hmmm...a Nikon Coolpix 990, eh? I've got to get myself into the digital world, but still can't think of anything that would match the quality of the photos from real film and my beloved [Analog camera? Acoustic camera? :smile:] Nikon N70. It must be my inner Luddite. I'll check it out.



Great to see you posting here, Bermuda! I hope you're enjoying the hiatus.



Cheers, Diva
