			 Looking for a good digital camera for taking aquarium pics. Minimum 4.0 megapixels and 3x or better optical zoom. Would like a higher memory card but not a deal breaker. Local only.

			 Is the Nikon 4100 still a good camera? They were in the London Drugs flyer the other day for under 300.

			 I got my Nikon 4300 at LD for $250.  It's being discontinued & it was a demo-model, so the manager dropped it another $50 for scuff marks. 
		
	
		
		
		
		
		
	
		
		
	
	
	Anthony You can get a 512 MB Compact Flash card at Atic computers for $50 or the Ultra II for $70.  |

			 What is the difference between a flash and a SD card? 
		
	
		
		
		
		
			I bought a minolta Z1 off of Ebay. It only has 3.2 meg pix but has a 40x zoom and has macro and super macro for those realy close up shots. It also takes B/W pics and takes movies too. Here is a site that might help you decide what to buy. http://www.dpreview.com/ HTH

			 Compact Flash cards are old technology & they're slightly bigger than the postage stamp-sized newer SD cards.

			 This is the camera I think I'll go with. It will take up to two hours of video in addition to still pics. Hopefully I can figure out how to post videos here.
