Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

New Digital Camera - Help Me Choose!
I absolutely loved my old camera (a casio xilim I got for $250 on ebay) when I got it, and it served me well for years. However it is now about 6 years old and has been acting up quite a bit (it sometimes takes several tries to turn it on as it likes to power back down immediately). I would LIKE to have the convenience of just using my iPhone camera, but it really sucks (I only have a 3gs).
SO, I am in the market for a new digital camera. Money is tight, so I have quite a low budget but have found a few within my price range. I was hoping you guys could help me out and tell me which one you think would be best and why. My main uses will be for taking pictures of my reptiles and other pets, and any other random pictures I feel like taking. Nothing artsy or professional. So, take a look and tell me what you think would be my best option. My personal favorite is the Canon PowerShot A4000, but I would like to get the opinion of those that are more experienced with the current market.
Thanks!
Fujifilm Finepix JX580
Samsung DV50
Canon PowerShot A2300
Canon PowerShot A4000 *My Favorite*

I know what you mean about having an old favorite finally crap out...I really miss having my Olympus.
I don't have much experience with the cameras you're looking at - but my girlfriend has a Canon Powershot. I hate the thing with three passions, honestly; and that was before I broke it. (Though I will say that when I picked up the pieces & put it back together as well as I could, the camera still worked. I don't like it any better, but I do have to give it credit for that)
