What kind of digital camera do you use?I just upgraded from a Casio Exilim to a Canon Powershot SX100 and I could not be happier. It has optical image stablization and I throw away a lot less photos then my tiny Casio. What camera do you use and do you like it?

Did you have to ask? I have total of 6 cameras, 4 digital. I have old Nikon coolpix, sony cyber 717, sony alfa SLR and canon 20D... I don't like small cameras. I wouldn't know how to take good picture with small camera...

... and cameras are because photography is a hobby for you... you just kept upgrading to the latest greatest and never got rid of what you have. I thought I had too many with three of them... you got me beat by 2X that.

I really don't know that much about Fuji but I am there with you dreaming about a Nikon d40x... I would love to have that camera although I know I would get it and then not use it to its fullest potential. Still an awesome camera.

In the past my digital camera is Fuji S304 and lately we bought a new one. It is Fuji S9600. I am satisfied with both of them.

I use a Sony DSCH7 and love it! It is just the right size and takes wonderful photos, with an awesome zoom (15X) The only suggestion I have is buy an extra battery so you can take photos without running out of battery.

Mine has a 10X optical and 4X digital (with 10MP it is OK go to that far) with optical stablization so I can get good shots even that far away. It uses AA batteries so I just have two sets of rechargables and and extra memory card (SDHD) on hand. The only knock against my Canon is it doesn't do RAW image files and with 8GB at my disposal I could handle it. But the JPGs come out just fine.

I have a Samsung Digimax 301. I bought it almost five years ago when I was moving oversea from Walmart for $125. I left left the brand new camera on the plane. I couldn't find another one as where I lived. I thought they would be cheaper in the states so I waited to go for a visit to get one. I didn't get one in the states and when I went back overseas I found the same thing for a little more than I paid at Walmart. It's ok but I'd rather have a smaller thinner one.

Small and thin are good just MAKE SURE it has OPTICAL image stablization. The greatest thing to happen to digital cameras since glass lenses.

I got the z1275 Kodak camera for Christmas, I love the camera, it takes GREAT photos but the only thing I don't like about it is the time in between photos, I missed lots of great photos because of the time it takes for you to take the photo.

I have a Pentax Optio A10 and it is an 8 megapixel. It has the stablization too and I love it.

Casio and Pentax are for all intensive purposes the same camera. They have a great lense. My Casio is an older one and although it takes GREAT photos no stablization. If it had that I wouldn't have bought the new one.
