I have a mavica cd1000 that I take pick with the advantage is that it stores Pics on cd rom right in the camera. You can connect to a computer by USB to get the pics or take the disk out and read it with a cd-rw. You can now buy the camera much cheeper than I bought it on ebay Ed ----- Original Message ----- From: Greg Ponder To: slaga Sent: Tuesday, January 27, 2004 2:00 PM Subject: [GeoStL] NGR: Ask The Experts First things first: I'm ignorant (in case you were not already convinced). With that out of the way...I am seriously considering purchasing a fairly high quality digital camera, probably in the 4-5 megapixel range. My concern is storage. I don't want to purchase a camera that "can" take hi-res pictures but then dummy it down to lo-res because my butt's on a butte in Utah and my memory card, stick or disc (or cards, sticks or discs) are full. I don't have a laptop, but I'm considering one. It would be my storage device so that I can take the quality of picture that I desire while on my adventures. Is that a feasible (albeit expensive) approach or are there better ways to shoot high quality digital photos without running into storage problems out in the field.
