I have 158,000 points on my AMEX. I am thinking of this one. www.membershiprewards.com/CategoryN.aspx?clgid=3&catid=160&scatid=174 What do you guys think or do you see something better here? www.membershiprewards.com/CategoryN.aspx?clgid=3&catid=160&scatid=174 Thanks hive mind!  |

get the cannon 5.0 megapixel with the extra 256 meg card, www.membershiprewards.com/ProductDetail.aspx?clgid=3&catid=160&scatid=174&aid=57547 save the extra 100K points for other goodies.. |
+1 I have the 3.0 MP version of this camera and it is bad ass! It takes video with sound aswell!
|
Everything from pix of my car, to people, to sports, to scenery. |
Gun porn |
Sports could be tough with a p&S type |
Thats why I am considering the SLR one. Also they have the nikon 8 megapixel cameras but no model number. Meaning its a good deal or a not so good deal for the nikon. |
| I have the D-70 which I think the body alone is selling for about $800.00. Lenses will run anywhere from $100 / $ 300 up to 5K., depending on what you are after. The megapixel on the D-70 is 6.1. Alot of the pros use the D2H which is I believe about 4 MP. The lenses and the person behind the camera is the key to great photography. |

Isnt this Camera an SLR? www.membershiprewards.com/ProductDetail.aspx?clgid=3&catid=160&scatid=174&aid=56301 What makest the Nikon better? Also what of the non slr 8 mp nikons? What is the advantage of an SLR? Thanks |
| That's looks like the cannon digital rebel - sells for about $650.00. Go to www.dpreview.com. I am not familiar with the Canon products. It's kinda like the Ford/ Chevy thing. Some people love the Canons, some the Nikon. For indoor sports you will need a lens with at least a f2.8 . Outdoors you can go higher but with the 2.8 you can increase shutter speed to stop the action better. |
Did you buy a house with your card? Holy cow thats a lot of points. CANON REBEL is the way to go. Great first serious camera. |
Nah I use it to buy shit for my customers. High dollar shit like Servers and printers etc..... 10k-20k a pop...... Also if anyone knows. I have enough points for the Cannon SLR the Nikon I need 40k more points. Is it that much better? Why? Thanks.... |
