hi!!
im very much interested in photography, more in film than digital. everybody who want to buy a digital camera, needs to ask what does he or she want from the camera and its intended use. if u r looking for good photography, then there isnt any point buying cheap digital cameras, with less than 3 mpx. for film like quality u would hav to buy at least 4mpx camera. but if u are looking for a camera to use on occasions and for general use. then it really depends on the budget. general guidelines shud be to follow mpx number, the optical zoom, then the memory slot, then the formats it uses, then other features it provides and ofcourse u shud try it out for size.
hav a look at sample photos.
dont buy stuff which runs on lot of proprietory or expensive stuff, like memory cards shud not be expensive aand batteries it uses shud be available widely if not everywhere
pc conectivity is a must. and the simpler it is the better. more importantly for regular use, it shud be user friendly.

anybody owns any equipment like slr cameras.
bwt, jjmehta is a good shop, but everybody knows about him bcoz he does a lot of marketing on the net. he has a smalll shop in dadar. if anybody in bombay knows where is ideal book depot, can find it very easily. he keeps all popular brands in cameras in film, just chekout the product page. if u really want the best prices checkout www.bhphotovideo.com, u can order it from there and tell ur relative to bring
it over. intl shipping is also provided but u will hav problems in customs.

hey subhash, u r in mumbai right now. u can try out fort shops and try and find stuff, like filters. there is no better place for photographic equipment, lots of shops there.
btw wat kind of equipment do u own?
ever thought of starting a forum for photography. it makes it easier for ppl to exchange info and stuff. im planning to buy an autofocus slr, do u know of minolta Dynax 60/maxxum 70?

Photography for me is just a hobby - tho sometimes i do wonder - what it would be to be a photographer - just roaming from place to place - admiring nature and sharing its beauty with all the ppl around the world.

Btw, i just thot i shud attach one more - over here - which I just love
