orribolollie 0 #1 July 29, 2006 Hello People! Can someone tell me whats the digital stills camera of choice? It will be for freeflying piccies; so i guess not one of those huge old skool things? Also, do people tend to set the camera for continued pictures just before they jump, or go for a bite switch? Thanks for your help guys! Ollie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ltdiver 3 #4 July 29, 2006 Quoteummmmmmmmmm? What freeflydrew is saying is that this question gets asked -alot- here. Take a look at this search: http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?do=search_results&search_forum=all&search_type=AND&search_string=digital+still+camera For quick reference: If you're a Canon believer: The Rebel XT is the cheap version. The latest more expensive (and yes, better) version is the Canon 30D. If you're going PRO, then try the 5D. Then there's everything inbetween. I'm thinking you'll be heading towards the XT. About the bite (tongue, blow) swtich. Yes, get one. ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
