Re: sale horses on Digital Camera
This message is from: "Jean Gayle" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Merek, I was curious about the length of time to store pictures on the floppy with my Sony, two seconds. If you want to shoot faster than that, which includes focus time and direction I do not know how it might be done. Perhaps if one used the movie part? Having been a professional photographer for some years I realize we all have preferences in camera and style.

Re: sale horses on Digital Camera
This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I don't like the Sony cameras. Nothing wrong with the quality, just too much bother swapping those discs. You are better with a camera that uses a Compact Flash or Smartmedia card. They can hold many times (as much as 50 or more) more pictures than a floppy, and you insert them in a small reader when you get back to the computer. I have a Sony videocamera called a TRV-900, which also does stills in a special mode at 480X640 resolution, and saves to a 48Meg CF card. Holds almost 250 pictures at the highest quality, and 800 at the lowest. True, it is lower in resolution than the present digital still cameras, but the color is excellent due to the 3 CCD's, and I have the 12-1 zoom range of a videocamera. I click the CF card out and insert it in the PMSCIA slot in my laptop (which IS my computer, no big home machine) and the pictures are there. Merek

We decided that we needed higher resoultion, as we take our own pictures for our ads.

I jumped in early, and have a Kodak 210 which was the first megapixel box for under $1000. Even though it's three years old I still get good Web quality pictures with it and I still love it. This camera like many others uses compact flash cards for storage, and can hold more pictures than a floppy disk with most cards. Also, tiny hard drives, which hold several hundred megabytes, are becoming available that will fit the card slots. If I were getting a camera today, I would go for a Nikon 950 or 990. They have the attraction of Nikor optics and can be used in either point and shoot mode, or adjusted like a quality camera. -- Steve McIlree -- Pferd & Skipper -- Omaha, Nebraska, USA If I be once on horse-back, I alight very unwillingly; for it is the seat I like best. --Michel Eyquem de Montaigne(1533-1592)

You can get them right out to customers looking for Fjords. They are worth every penny. If anyone who has contacted me from the list on purchasing Mink Hollow fjords would like to view a horse they are interested in email me privately at [EMAIL PROTECTED] ( only use one l in minkhollow or it will go to someone else's email).
