    im going to try to save money for a good digital camera (400/500 dollars... which is above average but not the best...) and a cheap, used, good manual 35mm camera.

    I was going to do something similar once.. But I'm too lazy... A good fiml camera isn't too expensive, but factoring in the continuing cost of film and such, it would be probably be cheaper in the long run to get a good digitral, like $1,000+ range. At least that's what I would do if I ever got around to it. :rolleyes: I'd be happy as hell with a D70. :D

    I'll sell you a Canon 300D 6.1MP w/ EFS 18-55mm for $500.
    It's a really great camera and it's in good shape. I'm just a little desperate for cash right now. I'd be happy to send pictures, specs, or samples.

    The camera is only 20% of the buisness in my eyes. It's all about skill, vision, and timing.

    I have been able to take some impresive photos with a cheap digital:

    I have an Olympus Stylus 300 Digital.

    3.2 MP, 3x optical zoom.

    Valued at 140$ on Amazon.

    Try adjusting the focus settings.

    If not, then buy a stand; maybe your hands shake a lot while you take the picture.

    Increasing the MP won't do much difference. A camera with high MP is only truly good for taking close zoom pictures in high resolution. Distance shots are not much affected by the megapixels.
