Hello Alicia!

On my blog you asked about buying a DSLR VS a high end Point and Shoot. let me give you a quick run down.

It depends what you want to do with your camera! If you are happy enough to take decent photos and want something small enough to bring anywhere, a point and shoot will be just fine for your needs.

If, OTOH, you want to do more creative photography, and are familiar with how an SLR film camera works, a DSLR may be what you need.

Some differences that are important to remember are this:

- DLSRs are large, just as film cameras are. They are not convenient to bring out and about with you like a little digicam.

- DSLRS are really only as good as the lenses you have for them. So if budget is a concern, and you are weighing your options based on a few hundred dollars, remember that the average lens price is in the $500.00 range, so it's an additional cost. And other accessories will be costly as well

- the battery for my camera is $120.00. The flash was $550.00. My zoom lens was $1K. These are important considerations.

- if you want to get into serious photography you need a DSLR. If you just want to take photos, you just need a point and shoot.

I hope that information is helpful. I'll be honest with you - people constantly ask me what kind of camera I use when they see my photos. But remember that it's somewhat as much the operator as it is the camera! I love taking photos and I love the art of photography ... I'm striving to do it for a living. A DSLR is more camera than most snap-happy people need. So if you think you just want to pick up the camera and shoot, get a regular digicam. If you want to spend hours adjusting apertures and the like, and then more hours fiddling in CS2 to get the photos perfect, then you are probably a candidate for a DSLR :)

Happy Shooting!
