I hear ya on that one, but then, I really don't like little dogs much. My buddy's Jack Russell is kewl though, so there are "exceptions" but generally... 80lbs+ is my preference.

Thanks Alicia!

I have to admit getting a bit on the nervous side, I'm sure that I will do fine it is just the waiting to get there part. I have a feeling that this one will take quite a while with all the people that I have to "talk" to today.

You guys and gals are the best!! I don't know how I would have made it through the past year without all of you.

Thanks for all the compliments on my buddy! Here he is taking up the entire back seat of Nyx on the drive from CO to MD for Christmas 2006:





And here he is playing with his little sister, an Akita my roommate adopted. Her name is Takara:

That is one spoiled (thats a good thing) pup you got there Mark. You need to bring her to out G2G in October.

We need to do something where we can hang out for a couple or three hours this time around.

Good morning guys and gals. Glad you enjoyed my pics, but you really cant capture the beauty of the mountains with a camera. The temp dropped really fast up there yesterday, from 60 to 45at the top, and I think we were around 5000'.
I only have a sec to say hi, but was hoping for some advice on a new camera. Mark, Dan? anyone?
I would like to have at least 8MP, video, rechargeable battery with AA backup ability, fast shutter speed, and be lightweight. I dont want to spend much more than $300. ANy ideas? Its gotta take nice pics, the areas I head into are so beautiful and I feel Im not capturing it very well.
Thanks in advance everyone.

Brent,

I got a 9.2MP Kodak for 100 bucks when I first started doing inspections and such. It does what I need it to do. Its definitely lightweight, but as far as the shutter speed...I dunno! It takes video but I don't know how long. I guess it depends on the memory card you've got in it. I just keep a spare 4 pack of AA batteries in my truck so I wont be out of commission when the batteries die!

Brent, I have the HP R927 which has since been discontinued, but I never had any issues with it, 8MP, video, extra battery, (doesn't have the AA backup), 1/2000th to 16 shutter speed, 3X optical, 8X digital, built in flash, macro settings, it is pretty durable too with a stainless steel housing, the docking station came with this version but was available as an option, and all the rest of the bells and whistles.

I got it 3 years ago and it was 299, then I'm sure the technology has advanced somewhat, so your in the right price range still.
