Canon EOS Rebel XTI vs Nikon D60

Both SLR cameras have comparable specs and prices. Which do you recommend? I'm taking a cruise and want to shoot lots of pictures.

Staff

Sounds FUN! You may also want to consider the Sony a300 or a350. All 3 brands are very, very good cameras. Each have excellent features. You cant' go wrong with any of them. I shoot with both Canon 40D and Sony a200 (wish I had gotten the a350). Moisture and Spray will be an issue so make sure to get a ND (Neutral Density) Filter to help protect the lens and a camera that is Weather Resistant and or a camera cover such as Camera Armor. Take extra batteries.

I accidently reformated my disk

When I reformated my disk I lost all the vacation pics I had. I did take some new pics. Have I lost all of my pics from the beginning by taking new pictures? Can I retrive my first pics?

Staff

I have had this happen more than once. Both accidental erasure and memory errors. Chances are you may be able to recover some of the photos. There is several File Recovery programs available. I use R-Studio. You could take the memory to you nearest BestBuy and have the Geek Squad see what they can recover.

What does card protected mean?

Staff

Some Memory cards have a tiny slider along one edge that when set to “Protect” will disable the write function so no photos can be added to the memory. Just slide it to the other position. Some cameras also have this as a menu option to “Write Protect” the memory as a safe guard. Just re-enable the write function.

Shutter Speed

i need to know what camera has the fastest shutter speed that is less than 200 dollars. i dont need a real fancy camera but i am trying to take pictures of my baby and i always seem to miss the shot i am trying to get.

Staff

The missed shot is probably due to shutter “Lag” time rather than shutter speed. The Lag time is how much delay there is between when you push the shutter button...the camera checks focus...sets ISO speed...sets Aperture and Shutter...then finally takes the photo. By this time what you wanted to catch has already passed. This is one of the drawbacks to the compact cameras. Unfortunately the more inexpensiveness the camera is the longer this delay is. If you don't want to get involved with the D-SLR cameras I would suggest a Advanced Digital. You will get many of the features and speed of the D-SLR and still be under $350 or so.

how do I delete the pictures

Staff

Put you camera in “Play” mode, when you come to a photo you do not want push the button that looks like a “Trash Can”. The camera will ask you to “delete or cancel”..select “delete”. It may ask if you are sure ...select “yes”. If you want to remove ALL photos you can “Format” the memory. This should be found some where in the menu area, usually under an icon that looks like a wrench.

what is the best digital camcorder to purchase for my kids sports activities?

Staff

A D-SLR would be best. You need a good Optical...not Digital...Zoom (200mm or 300mm) so you can zoom in tight on the action. Also you will need to be able to set a high ISO (Film/Sensor Speed) to be able freeze the action. A D-SLR will give you control over all this and more whereas a Compact Camera will not.

What do you suggest I buy...

My son is graduating from Airborne School and I just found out the ceremony ends with the class jumping out of a plane. I want to get this shot - so I know I'll need a really good zoom - I would need something that would be good in overcast situations (since I won't know how the weather will be) and this is something I'm thinking I'll use maybe twice a year? I saw the Canon HF10 on sale for under $1000 but I really don't wanna spend that nor do I want something that's going to be grainy...don't want much do I-LOL. Thanks for your help

Staff

Hmmmm...Tricky. Regardless of the Camcorder you get you will need a tri-pod to stabilize the camera.
Look for the highest Optical zoom to avoid any pixelization and distortion of the video. It looks like the Canon HF10 has a decent zoom (12x) but a 16x-20x would be better. Good luck.

what is the best memory card for a casio camera?

Staff

Without knowing the exact model I could only assume it would be SD (Secure Disk). Depending on the age of the camera you may be limited as to what size (how many gigs) to only 1 or 2 gig in size. The brand will not matter as long as it does not exceed the amount of memory the camera can use.

Inter changeable lenses--old film SLR to Digital SLR

I have a Minolta film SLR with extra lenses and wonder if any of these lenses can be adapted to a digital SLR.

Staff

If your lenses are AF (Auto Focus) Lenses you are in luck. These lenses and the Maxxum series lenses are compatible with the new Sony Alpha cameras. The a100 all the way to the a700 D-SLR cameras from Sony use the same mounting hardware. If the lens is a D series then it will give Distance information to the Speed/Zoom Flash when connected to get proper exposure then zooming.
