How many of us who use SLRs/DSLRs still frequent our old pocket/handheld point and shoots? *raises hand* Me me me me me!! It's hard to throw them away or ignore them completely - they come in handy in so many ways. What are your thoughts on that? Do you have a favorite small, all purpose camera? | |

What kind of point and shoot do you have now? I use Jeremy's Sony. It's easy to carry anywhere, and you can do more with a point and shoot than most people realize. Do you have any special techniques that you use with your point and shoot? I frequent the white balance thingy, myself. | |

I use a really inexpensive HP Photosmart E327. There are very few features and I don't use them especially. I use this camera for three reasons: to snap potential shots to come back to with my DSLR a video I'm working on 365 day project a picture a day project. The picture quality isn't that great, but its always in my pocket. | |

That's cool. I think it's fun to try to shoot things with a pocket camera and aim for the same or very similar results that I would get with the SLR, just to prove that it doesn't matter if you have a big, expensive camera, you can still take awesome shots if you know what you're doing. LOL Although, I LOVE the SLR because it is easier to get those great shots... | |
