I have attached a picture given to me by Lance Peck as an example at how well the D50 works for him. This pic was taken in the field. Anyway, what are your recommendations for where to purchase? I found a place called bestpricedcameras.com where the deals seem almost too good to be true?? Anyone do business with these guys? Of course, this is a non-fishy question and an opinion I am looking for so please, private email me so We don't insult anyone! Thanks a bunch!

Perhaps this is not, strictly speaking, specific to killiefish, but it 
is of interest to some of the list members (like myself). I'm not a good 
photographer, but I have aspirations of improving. My $60 digital camera 
is not really up to the job (I can hear all of you snickering) and I'd 
like to find out what you ultimately end up buying (and why). So if you 
get some helpful responses privately, could you summerize them and post 
them back to the list for the benefit of the rest of us?

Thanks!
