Digital Cameras and my ACEO Geisha Feb 2008

I have had my present digital camera for at least nine years. It is great except for one thing: the largest Jpeg it can take is 1200 x 1000 pixels, so printing larger than 5 x 7 is difficult to do. I have spent the last few days obsessing and researching feedback and reviews on digital cameras. I thought some of that information might be helpful for others who are thinking of buying a digital camera.

Sites that offer professional reviews on digital cameras:

CNet Digital Camera Reviews

dpreview.com

Let's go Digital Comparison Ratings

Steve's DigiCams Reviews

Consumer Reports

Review of Canon G9 by Darwin Wiggett

So what digital camera am I getting? I will tell you soon. I plan to buy my new digital Camera by March 3rd. My husband and I made a deal that I would sit and incubate all the information I have read over the last few days before I make a final decision. I also need to look at the used electronics shop down the road to see what digital cameras they offer.

Let me end with my latest ACEO, Geisha Feb 2008, collage of fabric, rice paper, watercolor and acrylic:

Good luck camera shopping! You'll have so much fun trying to pick out the best of the best. Then, when you get it, you won't be able to stop snap, snap, snapping. Thanks for sharing those links, too...

Your ACEO is beautiful, as is the rest of the work on your blog. I recently did some comparisons for camera lenses. There's a lot to absorb!

Blue-eyed Siamese Cat flies to Japan

Today was filled with my art and time with Sputnik. She was bathing herself which gave me the chance to catch a photo of her. I actually adopted Sputnik as a kitten in 1998 when I was living in Mexico. She made the long trip with me to Japan on July 25, 2004. It took me about 6 months to plan the logistics of bringing her from Mexico to Japan. Since I had to fly via the U.S. on Mexicana Airlines and Korean Airlines, that meant 4 countries and two airlines would need to approve her transport. There were many details to keep track of for each country and airline. After 6 months of stressful planning, 16 hours of two airline flights and layovers, She made it to Japan safely! Korean Air allowed her to fly with me as my carry-on luggage, which was a relief for me. No worrying about whether she was scared or left at the Los Angeles airport! I didn't give her any tranquilizer to sedate her. Yet, she was quiet the entire flight and went unnoticed by other passengers. I h
