Shyrell I would strongly recomend that you look at the Nikon D70 -- I have one, and nearly 50,000 pictures on it, and have had nothing but wonderful results. It has manual focus and all the SLR toys, not to mention an upper shutter limit of 1/8000th (which I intend to put to work at the EAA Fly-In at Whitman Field in Oshkosh Wisconson this summer) -- at those speeds I can probably stop the compressor blades in a Jet turbine If you have any questions, or would like to see samples etc, please feel free to e-mail TIM Shyrell Melara wrote: Hmmmm- yha- Still using el cheapo camera. Sorry, should have been more clear. Looking forward to getting the one you mention. Can I find one at a 'rock bottom' price? Someone suggested Ritz Camera Shop (USA).
