This is a little off topic but i am keen to know what some of u are using to take the pics of your models that you are posting here. Im assuming that they are digital camera's right? Which digi camera do u use and are they all suitable for taking close-up pics like u can do with a SLR camera?

I'm using 1.3 Mega Pixel Olympus, which I bought three years ago. It's still my primary camera for web publishing. The highest resolution is 1280x1024, so it's more than enough for the internet. It has macro mode, so I can get as close as 10 cm or so, which is convinient to take a photo of a model.
Two complaints are that it doesn't have optical zoom feature, and that the battery life is way too short. Anyone who's thinking of buying a digicam, do not buy one without zoom, and also check and see if it has a built-in internal rechargeable battery.

Logitech Quick Cam. I would NEVER buy one of these cheap pieces of crap. Can you say blurry and out of focus.

SONY mvc-FD83 Interpolated Mega Pixel (whatever that means :eek: )

SLR Nikon N65. It has great aperture range which is very importand for sharp model shots. Howewer stock 28-80mm lens not enough for very big closeups. I'm thinking about something like 150mm telephoto lens.

Olympus 3030 for me (it's 3.3 megapixel and makes movies too) I bought it some time ago and i'm really happy with it...

Hmm, they must cost a bomb. :eek: I'd love to get one but they are just a little expensive for me. :mad:

Sony DSC-S70, 3.3Megapixel, 3X optical zoom, Carl Zeiss Vario Sonnar lens, lithium battery.

But i still haven't found a good place :mad:

olympus 3020 digi cam with 3.2 megapixels. i can take closeups with mine just push the button with the flower and it will focus for closer shots. the battery life is only short on mine if i always use the lcd screen. but it lasts longer if i just use the view finder.

Sony dscs85, and I just found out about the flower!! :bloated:
Here are some pics I just took under a weak desk lamp, 1:18 tho. oh the bad thing is, I found out all my 1:24 look toooooo bad up close!
