What point and shoot should I buy?

[Hards80]

yes indeed. you do not need a dslr to improve your pictures, or your photography skills. sure there are situations that demand a dslr, but for the majority of users, you can get some great shots with a p&s. examples from our users here are testament to this.

for examples, still life / semi-macro work can be done quite nicely with a p&s, and sometimes the extra depth of field of a small sensor can be quite handy.

this is one i took with an old Canon S50, a great p&s in its day, but a bit archaic these days.

Thanks, very much, Dustin-

That is exactly the point we were, not so cleverly, attempting to make. We do not have to be caught up in the DSLR rush! We still can capture and create, Dustin your image is a perfect example, of high quality point and shoot images, using cameras that cost a good deal LESS than any DSLR camera.
