Forgot to add in the last msg....

IMO, the real 'value' point in digicams these days is in the 4mp range. Some
really nice devices available for < $500. My first was a 3.3mp, and I was
able to print some pretty nice 8x10's with it. So anything 4mp and up should
do you fine. Just depends on your budget.

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.

Thank ye for your input,

Greg Ponder...The Hairy Hillbilly
