Photograph and Camera talk
-
I've never been one to take photographs in my years of life thus far. However, being forced to do so–albeit, in a very crude manner--for selling purposes and also having the pleasure of taking in the beautiful efforts of, well, she who need not be named (^) has me thinking that it could be an invaluable necessity when looking back on my life when I am grey and decrepit. That being said, what would you consider to be a quality introductory camera? I'm very big on durability as I am impatient and clumsy and thus tend to, well, break things…on occasion…

I have come across these great depression era color pictures a few times and every time I am amazed with them. The clothes, the people, everything…Not sure if anybody gives a shit but who knows:

Nice pics everyone!
As the article doesn't link to it, I thought I'd mention it: The LOC has a flickr account and a lot of these pics are available in full res! Just follow the introduction underneath each photo.

It helps to take 3 exposures or just shoot 1 raw photo. The only thing I find with raw photos is that if you are above 400 ISO, you get a lot of noise, but that is just me personally. I would rather shoot with 3 exposures but if you don't have a tripod it is hard to keep the pictures in line.
Also as for programs a lot of people use photomatix (it merges multiple images, and then creates an HDR image then you post edit it).
