Just wondering what kind of camera you guys are using to photographs when you are at Disneyland.
If you like give us your Pros and Cons on your camera.
I going today and get the Nikon D70s, I did have a Nikon 3200 Coolpix it a great and now I ready to use SLR. I do have a SLR but I use slides film and it is getting hard to get slide film.
The camera I use is a Conan A2E.

I have a 2002 Nikon Coolpix 885. It makes nice snapshots, but I'm wishing I had something better to play at some REALLY nice - uh - snapshots. I'm hoping it hangs in there with me until I a) decide what I want and b) have the money to buy something new. 10x optical zoom, and I already know I need a wider range than I have now. Tried to get a person in the shot with the Screamin' Mickey and couldn't quite manage it.

I've got a Canon PowerShot A80, 4.0 mega pixels with 3X zoom. It's a nice camera and it does what I need it to do (which is take pictures and an occasional video). My only gripe is that it has a SLOW reaction time, so it's impossible to get good shots like in parades, when the object I'm shooting is moving. My camera has SO many features that I don't even know how to use, so maybe it's better than I think it is...

Just bought a Rebel XT. Still learning all its features. I got tired of not getting good motorsports pictures with my old Olympus digital camera.
I can't wait to bring it to Disneyland, IRL race at Sonoma and the San Jose Grand Prix!!

I have a Kodak Easyshare Z740. It has good image quality & a lot of features. I really love the 10x optical zoom. The only gripe I have is that it sometimes takes a while to focus. I'm planning to buy a wide-angle lens & a telephoto lens soon for it soon.

i have a Canon Powershot SD 450. Just upgraded from an old 2002 Samsung Digimax 2.0 Megapixel camera. It's really slim, and can take extremely clear photos (a lot better than my old camera!!). My only complaint is that I can't adjust the shutter speed... but otherwise, it's totally awesome!

Well, today I just bought a Kodak Easy Share C530 5 MP camera. It's tiny, but it sure takes some great pictures. I can't wait to use it at Disneyland next time I go! YEAH!

I just upgraded my camera from a 256 MB to a 2 Gig. I can now take up to 756 photos on high quality, or about an hour and a half in movies.

I have the Nikon D50 for stills, and the Sony DCR-HC96 for video.
I am very happy with both, it's really nice to have gear that just works without trouble...
Especially with the Nikon. It's almost impossible to take a bad shot on Auto, and the other presets are just great as well. It's also very cool to be able to push the button and actually get a picture right away, rather than wait forever like with regular point and shoot cameras!

Just last night I purchased the Sony DSC-H5. It is worlds above my old camera. I'm not too sure about the pros and cons of it yet, but ask me again after the Scavenger Hunt! :)

I just got my Digital rebel Xt...for 742(2 year service and tax) i didnt buy the memory card because i was going to get one on ebay. So far i think the Xt is the best entry level DSLR that anyone can get. After all the Rebel XTi is going to be released soon and the price of the XT is going to go down by about 100bucks or so

I agree, I purchased the Rebel XT for about... AU$1300 Six months ago, and have since taken it to WDW, it is a great camera and got some greats shots, especially of illuminations! At the moment, I have a 1gb card, which got maxed out suprisingly quickly at Disney :P

For digital I have a Rebel XT, and I LOVE it!!!!!!! The photos in my siggy and avatar were taken August 31 of this year with that camera and the small sizes just don't do them justice
I've also shot photos at Disney with my film cameras a Rebel XST and a Canon AE-1... yeah I only buy Canon. and I got great photos with them as well...
I highly recommend canon... :) (but I will agree the powershots are pretty slow)

I use the Pentax Optio W10, and I LOVE IT! One of the best things about it that it is waterproof, so I don't have any worries using it in the rain or on those "wet" rides.

I have been a Sony person from the get go. Started with the FD-91, with the 14x optical zoom (WOW). Replaced that with a CD300 which I really liked but I really wissed the zoom. So about a year ago I upgraded to a Sony H1. Takes awsome pictures and now I just got a fisheye lens and cant wait to take some pics at disneyland. Only drawback with the H1 is the sometimes long wait time between shots when using the flash indoors. Other than that- nothing

I just repaced my Kodak DX6490 with a Kodak P712. It is a DSLR Style (without the price!) 7.1 MP, 12x Opitcal, 5x Digital (Total of 60x zoom) I bought the DSLR style, so that I can use filters and ultimatly add a wideangle lense. It also has a Flash Hot Shoe, making this camera the next best thing to DSLR. I've only had it about a week now, but it is awesome, 16 more days until I try it out at DLR!!
