Hi, I have two digital cameras, and while one of them costed me five times more than the other, I heartily recommend the cheaper, which now is available in an updated version. It is now called Konica Minolta G-600, by the way. It's colours are amazing, especially if you under-expose a little and then reset the exposure in Photoshop with levels. With 1.5 steps underexposing the colours are vibrant and as true as you can get! The more expensive I have is an Olympus C-8080WZ and it is a very nice camera in the studio, and have heaps of features, but it isn't very good outdoors! I keep my Konica in a bag, made from a cotton trouser leg. It has a neckstrap which I use to carry it around on shore, but when at sea, I keep all of it in a watertight camera bag. The trousers leg sucks up any humidity and by carrying it around my neck when on shore it dries out very effectively. Not pretty, but effective! The camera is not even water-resistant, but till now I have not had any problem! The quality of the photos can be seen here (all outdoor, and most others): www.foldingkayaks.org/gallery/tord Not ideal for studio work, but outdoor, my!
