Nice pics. Does your hp camera eat up batteries too? I have a hp photosmart 215, I always have to keep the door for the batteries open when the camera's not in use or it will kill the 4 batteries in no time.

My Canon Powershot A40 barely uses batteries at all. But that might be because it takes 4 AA's instead of 2. When I went to the O'Reilly Autorama, i walked around for 2 hours straight taking pictures, never turning the camera off, and the batteries lasted the whole time. I usually have to change them every couple of weeks.

I had a photo printed on 8x10 paper at the developer and it looks very good. That is running it at 1600x1200 in SuperFine mode. Unbelievable! The thing is pretty loaded with features but I don't know enough about cams so I just run it on auto-focus.
I also bought a 128 meg CF card and that will hold 128 pics at the highest quality setting, 200 at one step down and 400 at 1600x1200 in normal mode. Good grief but this is very high technology.
For the money, the A40 is the camera of choice on all the review sites.

I've been using an Olympus D-490 2.1 Megapixel for nearly 2 years now. Can't believe the ammount of pictures I've taken with it compaired to how much I used a regular film camera. Must be over 2,500 pictures so far. One of these days though, I'd like to get a better camera even though this one does a great job.

I have an older kodak dc265 It eats batteries (4). If you use the display in the back to take to pics you may get 5 min. out of the batts.
Here are a few pics of my winter proj with the cam.

the neighbors across the street own those celica's (girls) i never even talk to them, thats where one of their friends backed into my car when their was about 2 inches of snow on the ground and i was at work with my moms vans..
i believe the mp rating on my camera is 2.1 or something close to that. not bad for 190 bucks at BJ's wholesale club..

Nice pics and that looks like a nice wooded area where you live from the neighbors view, I notice you have **** right in front of you. I live in Miami and we are so crowded down here. No open and country tree areas like your streets.
One thing about your beige interior, very nice and very, very good looking! But how did you get CD to fit, my sony xplod doesn't sit in tight and moves, wish I left original factory radio in. Andy

well circuit city installed it for me in my 88 formula but when that got wrecked (someone hit me) i just yanked it out and put it in my new car.. it fits real nice, i guess its mostly the install kit.
