Re: picture quality?

Thats the downside I see with them. Theres too much to fiddle with and it's not like you can just change it by pushing a button or something like on a regular camera. You have to go into file, then menu and go in and change it as if it's a computer, which they basically are. They take nice photos, but the ones that do take real nice pictures, cost big time bucks and are not worth the hassle. Thats just my personal opinion.
I remember hanging around 487 one night in Chama while a bunch of the Friends member and my dad were up at Fosters, there were two railfans down by the engine with their digital cameras, one guy who owned both cameras was spending way more time trying to figure out how to set both cameras on "night shot" than taking any photos or taking in the moment...He showed me the little chips that slide in and out of the camera that can hold acouple hundred photos, the only downside is that the little chips cost like $100 or something. I think it was around there...80, 90 dollars.
