A few weeks back I asked the IOMUG list for their collective opinion on
Digital cameras. After much research, I decided to buy a Kodak DC 290. It
features a 16mb card a 3X optical zoom and 2 megapixel resolution. I paid
$529 for it complete with rechargeable batteries, charger and AC adapter.
After using it for a week or so, I just wanted to tell the group that it
takes INCREDIBLE photos and the included software is excellent. Connected
via USB cable, the camera "mounts" just like a hard drive. Photos can be
dragged to your HD easily and quickly. It comes bundled with Photodeluxe 2.0
and Pagemill 3.0
I've been printing the output with an Epson 880 printer which has been very
rewarding in terms of quality and speed. the printer is almost silent!
To round out my Christmas purchases, I bought an additional 128mb of RAM for
my bronze Powerbook....for $89 from MacZone.
To anyone considering Digital, this camera is a very good choice in my
opinion.
