That's a crappy photo man, you need to get yourself a new camera!

....Actually, the camera I took that with is a good little P&S(Sony DSC V-1). Just a poor photo. I have captured some great stuff with the Sony.

As almost anything goes, usually it is not equipment, but user error. Snapped 2 quick photos of front and back before coming to work and that is what I ended up with....

Just excited that I have something that is going to be adequate to shoot my sons hockey(with a 70-200 2.8) and maybe get a few wake shots in. As with all our cameras, this it my wife's....I just get to use it.

you have the 70-200 2.8 already? or did you already have it? Thats a kick ass lense

I'm in the market for the same camera for my wife. Did you shop around, and if so, where did you find the best deal?

Rod,

I did shop around A LOT. At the time I was ready to purchase, Beach Camera (beachcamera.com) had the best deal by like $20... But the websites are ever flipping between best prices.

In the end, I just found my best deal on-line, called my local dealer and told them if they would match, including next day shipping, but minus tax(wouldn't have to pay that online)...I would buy from them. They matched and I purchase from my local shop.... Which in the end, I prefer doing.

So in conclusion... Look at bhphoto.com beachcamera.com buydig.com Those are all reputable and about as good as the prices are getting.

There is a place that Joe U. recommends a bit on here, but I cannot remember the name of the place for the life of me.......
