RE: Levels & Curves

["gary" <gsellani@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You can find some reviews on the net. The advantage of the Canon is that it
has real optical image stabilization, which works well at any light level,
and a progressive scan CCD, so you don't see the interleave artifacts if you
and/or the subject is moving. The 1.3Mpixel image would be OK for web stuff,
but that's it.

I suspect a cheap digital camera would be better. However, there are times
you have to limit the amount of gear that you carry due to size and weight,
and I draw the line at about 50 lbs and 15 cu ft. If you start adding it all
up (tent, pad, food, water, tripod, scanners, first aid, sleeping bag),
there isn't much room for photo gear. I'll carry a digital camera when it
can replace my film camera.
