I have two cameras. My primary camera actually isn't a camera, but a camcorder. The Sony HC7 is an HDV camcorder, plus it takes pretty good 6.1 MP still photos. One of the nice things about the HDV format is that you can grab 3 MP stills from video. The Giraffe Cat was taken as a still, the photo of Snappy's operation was grabbed from video.

My other camera is an Olympus Stylus 770 SW. It is a pretty basic point and shoot, but it is waterproof to 33', shockproof, and crush resistant. I take it places I would be afraid of ruining my Sony, plus it is pocket-sized. The Niger Cat picture I took from inside the tank, I just got the camera and wanted to try it underwater. :) The Hillstream Loach photo I took from outside the tank.

None of the pictures are uploaded at full size, I have very SLOW dial-up internet. :(

I would really like a D50 or D40x, but once you get a couple lenses and a few accessories the cost really gets up there!

I have had the Nikon D810 for just over a year now, i also have the D7000. It still stuns me just how good the Nikon D810 pics are, a fabulous camera and worth every penny! The price is coming down by the day which makes this in reach of most people.

I dont like the D7000 very much, it never seemed to focus properly. Overall i was disappointed with D7000, i will get some shots of my fish.

I'm looking to get a new camera, I want to go full format, and focus on high ISO performance.


Should I go with Canon 5D Mark IV, Nikon D810, or Sony A7RII?
