Cameras that is.
Not to compare what everyone's got or attempting to keep up with the Jones', but I'm curious what everyone is using for their cameras. So many of you have magazine quality photos and I'm wondering the what's and how's of your skill.
Personally, I use a Nikon CoolPix 775 (2.1megapixel, 5x optical, 2.5x digital zoom) and it works pretty well. I'm still feeling it out, getting used to all of its bells and whistles. I just started using the "Portrait" mode with no flash and boy does it make a difference. The only drawback is that you have to use a tripod to steady the camera or else you'll get blur. Otherwise, if I use the 'auto-everything' mode, it washes everything out in the picture.
I'd love to find out how everyone else takes such great shots. Anyone else care to share their camera types and special techniques?
