true...the point and shoots really lag. They can take a nice quality photo but there focus speed and lag time makes it really hard to capture a sharp image. My shots were taken with a Canon 1-D ....different ball game

I have seen and used some really great top end digital cameras and man are they sweet. Very expensive though. I am not sure, but I may have even tried out the Cannon too. I was very impressed by it.

I keep wanting to take 35mm pics at the races, but it is hard to do when you want to race in them. I have been training the wife to take pics, but it is hard to teach when you go over everything after the fact.

See I never have to worry about that. Once you get taken out in the first round you have the rest of the day to take pictures! :eek: :furious: :rotf
