My camera is officially DEAD!!!! 3 years old...been thru thick and thin...mud and rain.....lots of barrel races......the birthin of one calf, and numerous cow workins. So I guess it finally gave up.
Technically it says it has a ZOOM ERROR.....but when lookin in the booklet in the troubleshooting section, that ZOOM ERRORS must be referred to a repair center. For what it'd prolly cost to fix, I can go buy a new one. So.....looks like I"ll be hittin the pastures again with that weed wacker, and make somemore money so I can buy a new camera.
Just got a new Video Camera for Christmas.....gettin it figured out. But I still gotta have a camera I can take still shots with.

Thanks for the tip.....I really haven't got to look much at the camera's and shop.....but they are all more megapixels than the one I have now. I'm kinda leanin t'ward a Sony. But it'll all depend on how mucy $ I make knockin down weeds as to what I get to buy.

Wife and I just got a new Sony Cybershot, 8.1 Megs from the in-laws for Christmas. No, it's no professional photographer's outfit, but it's sure slick for a point-and-clicker. Can't believe how much the digital cameras have improved over the past four years. Makes our old Cannon 3 Meg deal look like a dinosaur. One of the nicest features of this new camera is that any old fool (me) can run it. You don't have to bring along the instruction manual to work with all of the features. Also, the short time lapse between photos is a major improvement. Pretty exciting.

Now, if I just had some better scenery and subject matter to share with my friends on Ranchers....

Hi Lilly;

I have an Olympus. It is heavy as digital cameras go but one of the best features it has is an ANTI-SHAKE setting. Sure makes for clearer pictures.

I'd like one that takes pictures faster than the one I had. You had to sit and wait for it to be ready again. WAsn't anything fancy, a measly 4.0 megapixels.......But I"m not shoppin for top of the line either. Thanks for the suggestions tho, I'll keep em in mind when I go camera shoppin.

This lil camera got lugged around in my purse most places I went. Guess that's not really a good place for one, but I never wanna carry two bags. One's bad enuff. Guess I"ll hafta make a point of puttin the camera in the camera bag, then stick my money in my pocket.....LOL

I said my old camera was a Cannon. Not true, it's an Olympus. Doesn't really matter, though, since my old camera is old news. :wink:

Let's see the scenery you've got. It is all in what you do with what you've got.

I have been looking at those for two years or so now. Just gotta pull the trigger. I keep thinking in my travels I could submit photos to our Capital Press Ag Paper and pick up a few coins now and then...

But.... I could also take up fly fishing for when I am traveling up Jigger Bosses way...

LOL...Choices,
