About 50 bucks.

That's all you would need to pick up a used, 4 mp camera. Maybe even less than that.

Here are some shots taken with a camera that fits that category.















You could pick up a used Canon G2 like the one used in the shots above for less than 50 bucks!

I have seen them from 30 bucks all the way to about 120, depending on shape and amount of accessories bundled with it.
I think I bought mine in 2001.

Yeah but Chip... Pavaroti could sing the phone book and sound great... and like him, you can use a cheap camera and get awesome shots. LOL

I'm thinking a DSLR would be a nice way to rediscover my shooting. Either that, or go 100% old school and pick up a fully mechanical Nikon and stay emusion for 35mm and the PAS digital for my regular needs.

Still not sure, but I hate having my old lens' sitting around gathering dust and my old Nikon body needs a repair that would cost enough to buy a new body. Grrrrrrrr!

Great pics, Chip. But, at the end of the day, it's all in your skills that bring up such superb results!!

Excellent shots, agree with jj it's the person behind the camera

I purchased a 6 megapixel digi vid/cam and I guess I need to make a little lighting stage to get the best pic of my DJ. I been using my 1.3Megapixel A900 cell.

Hmmm..... what old body have you got?
I would wait until they release a full-frame. I contemplated getting a D80, but everytime I look through the viewfinder I feel like I'm blind (er). It's just so dark compared to any film body. grrrr.....
