Good afternoon everyone! Just got back from shopping and I think every idiot in my town was at the same stores I was today....... Had to bite my tongue a couple times from telling some dingbat that she was a *******, tired to just smile and keep the holiday spirit though.

Tristan- Hope you feel better soon!

Mark- Everything is going to work out okay with your new medical setbacks. Like Lisa said, you have great friends here and that will make everything easier to handle. How are you doing from having the skin cancer removed last week?

Jay- I just had my remote start installed on my truck, to many wires for me to screw up on. lol.

JD- I have a Samsung 8MP camera that I paid about 175 for in the spring. I love it, very easy to use.

Lisa- I think it would be cool to decorate your truck, I have a wreath and bow on my grill. Would love to put some lights on it but Troy said he wouldn't drive it if I did that, I am lucky to get away with the big wreath and bow.

 

Still 99 bucks JD!

Kodak - EasyShare 9.2-Megapixel Digital Camera - Silver - C913

A lot of the people that reviewed it said it eats batteries. Ive changed them 3x so far and I use this for work...upwards of 40 pics a day on good days. Guess I got lucky according to the other people...

Appreciate it!

 

How big of a memory stick?

 

Ha...well thats where they get you. I bought a 2GB one for 9.99 more the same day...I dont know how big the internal one is. Cant imagine its large for this price.

Mark....16MB internal...

 

that looks like an updated version of the 4 mp that I have and really like also

 

Yikes I was hoping for more of a battery life then that heh, I need a decent battery with good pictures.

 

Yeah, with 9.2 MP, you're going to need at least a 2 GB.

 

get the rechargable batteries they are worth it
Guess you need the charging dock also

 

Ive only changed mine 3x since late October. Use it at least 2 days a week all day, on and off all day long. I have to usually take 4 pics of the houses Im inspecting.

EDIT....4x...just changed them 2 minutes ago! haha

 

Ive got two digital cameras
the first one I bought in NY city a few years ago while at the Macys Thanksgiving Day Parade, it is a Sony Cyber shot 6.1 MP and I have a 1 gig stick. It uses batteries quickly, but takes decent pics.

The other camera I won in a sales contest. It is a Kodak Easyshare V1233, it is a 12.0 MP High Definition camera with a 3x zoom, I have a 16GB stick for it, and it shoots 30 frames per second in video mode. Very high quality video. The only thing I dont like about it is that there is no view finder. you can only see what you are shooting on the LCD screen. I looked it up on Kodaks site and it is going for $199. The mem stick I have set me back about $60, but it is worth it to be able to shoot as many pics as I want in the highest possible definition, without having to stop and download to my computer. My HD TV has a memory stick port so I can pop in the stick and view through my photos on my 42" HD TV. My daughters friends thought it was very cool to see all their pics on the TV after a scavenger hunt.
Battery life is not terrible, and it is a rechargeable Li-on batt, I have a Mini USB cord that plugs it to my computer to recarge it when needed.

 

Well I like the Kodak you listed there Brandon but that is a down fall for me because that uses up batteries quick. I am thinking if I am at a diesel event I need some long battery life. I have a Kodak Easy Share DX4330 right now but its about 4 years old and really showing its age.

If you're a Supporter maybe you should consider checking out the thread I just started in there, and do as I am going to do about this mess.

With the quality of the pics and most cameras only using 2-4 AA batteries these days battery life is always gonna be crappy. I carry a pack of batteries in my truck when I go out and work. Easiest solution to that prob!

 

This is one reason I like both of my Sony cameras. They both came with rechargeable batteries and I bought a spare of each. A little pricey for the batteries, but worth it in the long run. They sure don't give away good double A batteries.

 

I left a reply over there Mark.
