Best Camera

Olympus Digital Camera Circa 1999
Prompted by a post from cafiend at Citizen Rider about taking a night shot with his "OLD" Olympus, the best camera is


THE ONE YOU'VE GOT WITH YOU!!!

Pictured is my first digital camera. It is an Olympus D450Z (C900). It had all of 1.3 megapixels combined with a 3X optical zoom. I used it for about 5 years until, with the advance of digital camera technology and a flash that no longer seemed to work, I got a newer Fujifilm Finepix S7000. I still use that camera a lot, though new cameras have long since passed it by. Will I get a new compact or digital SLR? Time only will tell...

Are you sure you did not pick it up off the Star Wars set...

That's why I got a Panasonic DMC-ZS20 a few years ago, small enough to keep with me, enough features and a 20x zoom lens for taking decent photos.

The Olympus hockey puck was submersible and shock resistant and fit in a pocket. I haven't determined if its ailments are fatal. In the meantime, I tend to run the little video camera as a dash cam (bar cam) and shoot snaps with my tablet at work or my lame phone, because I can send them between my devices via Bluetooth and post illustrations quickly if I want them for on line work. Since I go boating about once a year these days, and never go places for fun anymore, a rugged portable camera seems like a low priority.
