Cameras

What kind of camera do you use for taking pictures?

I have a Kodak digital camera that is a few years old now, but I suppose already outdated when compared to new cameras. It uses 3.1 megapixels, but I think cameras are up to 8 or more now.

Remember the old Polaroid cameras, the ones that took instant pictures that would develop on their own automatically over time? I grew up on those. They are soon going to be a thing of the past; the company is no longer making the film.

I think we use a digital for taking most pictures, but yeah, I do remember the old film cameras. They were very popular in their day, but alas, I too think their day has come and gone for the most part. As with everything else, some people will not want to part with them, but that is the wave of the future. What is popular today will be out of style tomorrow, and so it goes.

I got a new camera for christmas! I dunno much about cameras but the box says Olympus Evolt-410. Its a really fun camera. XD
Everything has a pattern. Something set. Even random things. They aren't random at all, its complex mathematics. The trick is to find the pattern. Then you can exploit it.

People think things have a certain end. Taxes. Work. Due dates don't really exist. Trust me. When you put a band of world scholars in the same room, and set them on talking about anything, the most interesting topics come up. The existence of negative time. The probability of "random occurrence". The government's involvement in the media. And falsified due dates. They aren't real, trust me....

Playing with my parent's Polaroid camera was one of my pastimes as a kid. Convenient and cool then, but not so much now; I guess seeing your picture come out over a few seconds time isn't cool anymore. :gloomy:

I generally use my blackberry's camera which I don't know the pixels off hand. Today at work I won a contest which gave me a Sony Cyber-Shot 8.1 Megapixels and some other neat options[I don't want to bore anyone with these unless they ask].

I have a digital one. I can't recall the brand off the top of my head...nor do I particularly care. It works, that's all I care about.

I use the disposable cameras! :lol: The digital cameras that I've seen are too expensive for me right now. I plan to get one eventually, just not right now. ^_^

I just bought a Kodak Easy Share M863 recently. 8.2 MP. It was only $130. I bought it with intentions of taking pictures of my gaming collection, but I have yet to do so. Basically I've used the thing once and it has been sitting in the box ever since.
