I posted about my Pentax DSLR a while back and took all the pictures in Costa Rica with it. I had to downsize every pic to post them on here, and they still came out okay. The originals are eye-popping.

My camera is not noticeably slow in shooting action pics, especially if I set it in sports mode. Most modern digital cameras will have that setting. I also got a 12mp digital camera for 80.00 by watching the "morning deals" on www.consumerist.com It's about the size of a pack of cigarettes and it's hard for me to take it seriously when I'm using it. It has a limited optical zoom and the lens is so small that it's hard to get a sharp shot when zoomed in on a long distance target. I learned that at 12mp it was better to zoom out on the camera and then zoom in and crop for prints.
