Great pic!!!!!! Welcome as well! There is tons of info in this thread!!!

I'm gonna look and see if my mac shows the info because I don't upload my pics to post them, I just upload them from my puter, so I'd rather skip this extra step.

Nope it doesnt...just the picture size info

what a wonderful pic of your beautiful yorkie...!

I can see the stat's if i go to where i keep my picture click properties then Detail's.

LOVE that, LittleJade, that's SO flippin' cool! :D

Please don't hate me but I just don't have time to read thru alllllll the posts in this thread. But from what I have read so far, it sounds like the canon rebel eos xs is a good camera??? I have a friend that has one he has barely used, a year old, and is willing to sell the entire kit including the carrying case for $300. Is this camera really ALLLLLL that??? I mean...I have been to concerts and see people with nice cameras taking pictures that make it look like they were right up on stage with people. I'm totally jealous of that. Is this a camera that could do this stuff for me? I also want to take beautiful pics of my kids and fur butts. I'm assuming other lenses can be used to make it even better, right? I'm such a newbie at all this. I have only ever used a point and shoot, quick shot, cheapo digital camera...so I'm sure this will be totally awesome compared to that. But I dont want to spend that kind of money if its not worth it. know what i mean???

TAKE IT That is agreat price. It's a great camera. And as you will learn as you do more research, it is all in the lense.

I paid $409 form, mine and no case.

I don't know where the heck I've been, but I'm just now seeing the Photography Talk!

How fantastic!!! I can't wait to start joining you all in all this fun!

Welcome. Join in on the weekly assignments. Can't wait to see some great photos from you.

I'm so disappointed this isn't the camera I want (the D90) - this is such a deal for $550!

Nikon D80 10.0 MPSLR camera, With Bag, sigma 28-70mm f2.8-5.6 zoom lens,sigma 70 - 300mm f5.6 lens, standard kit lens, nikkor 50mm prime lens f1.8 SHARP. 2 batteries, Charger, 2- 1GB sd cards. Boxes for most of stuff. Some filters for lens. Camera is in very good condition. I dont want to ship camera as to avoid scams and broken parts during shipping. Come look, buy and be happy. I am wanting to upgrade is the only reason I am letting this one go. I am not a pro just a hobbyist. Call Wanda to set up a time to look at camera (918) 944 3721 after 9AM

Wow look at all the lenes included! is the D80 just lower than the D90 because of the mega pixels?
That sounds like an awesome deal!

Nikon D90 vs D80 Compared | Digital Photography Notes

I have such a huge headache right now, I just know I'm not going to say this right. The D80 is like your D5000 as far as autofocusing, or buying lenses with the autofocus motor in them. With the D90, the autofocus capability is in the camera itself so you can use regular lenses without the motor. That's the main difference I know of. Oh, and the D90 has video capability while the D80 doesn't.

For this price though, I'm so tempted to get it just to try. Shoot, I bet just the lenses, extra battery, sd cards and bag would be enough to justify getting it at this price.

Thats what I was thinking!

Thank you! I hadn't really read up on the D80 but from that second article I'm glad I had already settled on the D90.

Darn, I wish I had a little extra cash - I think I'd call and go take a look at what this person is selling. I could put the camera body back up for sale and get the lenses for a steal.

Can anyone who is better w/ camera specs & such help me out here? I'm always weighing my options, looking at cameras, different lens, etc... as some of you know, I really miss my video feature.

I came across this camera:
Amazon.com: Olympus PEN E-P1 12.3 MP Micro Four...
Olympus E-P1 (they have an E-P2 now but not in my price range!) it's basically a small dslr. I don't really mind my Rebel's size, it's not really that big & bulky or anything but it would be nice to have something more "fit in my purse" size for vacations etc and still get good quality pics. I've been reading some reviews on it and most say it's wonderful. But I'm just curious as to how much of a downgrade it would be from my Canon Rebel XS. Some of the sample photos I've seen from this Olympus camera are really good! But I'm just not sure. My action shots are my fave so that's important... I don't really have to do much w/ my Rebel, it's always on auto or sport mode!

12.3-megapixel interchangeable lens digital camera; Micro Four Thirds format
Includes 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 Zuiko digital zoom lens
In-body Image Stabilization; 3-inch HyperCrystal LCD with Live View function
Record HD video with high-quality audio; in-camera creative features (for still images and video)
Capture images and video to SD/SDHC memory cards (not included)

I have read this thread until my eyeballs fell out today. :eek: Y'alls photos ROCK!!!! This has been SO educational for me today!

I still haven't quite decided WHICH camera I am going to purchase....but my old friend from high school sent me this link today (she just started her own professional photograph business and gets asked "what camera should I buy?" every single day, LOL) and it is QUITE helpful!!! It has the most popular comparisons listed on the bottom of the page and you can just click them or you can type in A vs B with whatever choices you want and get a pro/con summary and see exactly which camera has which. Hope this helps somebody who is still trying to figure out which one to get. Maybe I will figure it out before the sun comes up...:rolleyes:

Cool link!!! so did you decide :D I love my D5000.

I *think* I have finally decided on the Nikon D90. I think. I'm 99 percent sure. ;) I am just scared I am going to be overwhelmed by it and not use it like I need to. But....with these two puppies....I would imagine once I get going, I am not going to want to stop taking their picture. :D I am also SUPER excited because I just booked a holiday photo session for December 2010 with my friend who just started the photo business and she is going to do us WITH the pups for our anniversary this year. I literally cannot wait for December! She was the one who finally made up my mind....she has always been a Canon person and she still recommended the D90 and it is on sale at Amazon right now so there is really no reason NOT to get it. That's my story....and I'm sticking to it!

I've just finished re-reading this entire thread. :p Wow, I'd forgotten just how much great info is in here - I'm so happy it was made a stinky. :D

It only took me a week to read this whole thread. :eek: I should have started reading before I ordered my camera but Hopefully by Friday my D5000 will be here. I am so excited!! I have learned so much from here and to think this is a Yorkie forum.. Ohh at the things you can learn from having a yorkie. This is going to be a long week.....


These are a few pictures I took with my old camera.

Oh congrats :D! It's so hard to wait for new toys!

Lol on the comment, that was a good one and I agree -- I have learned so much here at YT about yorkies - but at the same, I've learned so much here *not* about yorkies :p!

Great piccies too, but can't wait to see some new ones once you get your D5000 :).

Those photos are great. i cfantwait to see what you can do with your new one.

I just got an 18-200 zoom lense for mine. I can't qwait to get a chance to really give it a try.

Thanks!! I have so many pictures but I dont know how to resize. :( I need to take a class on so many things. :p

It will be here today!!! My poor hubby has said all week (I should have spent the extra 35.00 bucks to have it here overnight). :D He said he was going to work this weekend cause I wasnt going to have time for him. Said he was taking Muffy and Buddy with him so I didn't drive them crazy . What who me? Never.. Ok well there was a few times.:D
