i thought that it would took me forever to beg my dad for a digital camera lol last may 20 something, he bought me digital camera from singapore and the brand of it was pentax, i just forgot the model lol. it was my first digital camera, i'm gonna took care of it properly so that it would last longer. another thing that has a sentimental value for me lol

how about you? did you buy it on your own or did someone gave it to you or did you also beg your parents just like what i did? rasp

hello rhane,
well i have been using the sony digital cameras since i remember. now i have a eight mega pixel and 4x optical zoom in my camera. it is going very fine and since a year i have not received any problems. well i was also fond of my first camera but later i gave that to my sister.
any ways have a good day.


myLot reputation of 95/100. rhane7315 (4176)   ranked 175 out of 2,278 in photography  4 years ago

that was great. my digicam was also 8 mega pixel. i'm always dreaming of having a sony digicam but my dad chooses another brand because it was cheaper that time when he bought it lol


myLot reputation of 95/100. praveenjena (1016)  4 years ago

hello buddy,
that is true .... there are companies like cannon and coolpix who are offering the same features at a lower rate and that is why i sometimes feel that if i would have taken that then i would have saved something.... but my brother insisted on having a sony digicam.
so now you are keeping the same cam or you have updated. well for me i have updated from five m.p to 8 m.p.
have a good day.

My first digital camera was a creative. It was more like a webcam, with a funny shell shape and not even had a screen where I could see the pictures. I wonder in what drawer it is now.

Good for you my friend. I have been longing to have my own digital camera too. But the budget for it still not coming my pocket, lol. If I already earned a lot here, maybe I will get one. I like a Sony brand digicam. I hope it will come soon...


myLot reputation of 89/100. longbangod (1381)   ranked 957 out of 2,278 in photography  4 years ago

You will have it soon. When you get about $130 earnings from mylot ang yuwie, you can buy a sony digital cam already. I have accumulated about $33 so far, I just need less than $100 then I could buy another one again hehe.

Good luck!


myLot reputation of 98/100. neildc (8307)   ranked 29 out of 2,278 in photography  4 years ago

It would still be a "long", "long" run, "long"... I only got 5 here in mylot and my paypal account balance is only 2... Soon, after the "long" run... lol


myLot reputation of 95/100. rhane7315 (4176)   ranked 175 out of 2,278 in photography  4 years ago

Mine is SONY. I think its the cheapest of all the sony digital camera models. But its okay it has 7.2 megapixels already. I bought it last year prior to my vacation. Then I left it with my family when I came back here in Saudi for work. That would be my first digital camera and maybe the last. If I will buy again maybe it will be a video cam already...Hopefully soon...

When I had the first look of that sony digital camera at one of the malls here in Cebu, I thought I was going to buy that. I was almost tempted, with a credit card in my wallet. But I said, I will return there for you, sony digicam... lol


myLot reputation of 95/100. rhane7315 (4176)   ranked 175 out of 2,278 in photography  4 years ago

lol that was also my next plan, a video cam lol but this time i'm gonna save more to be able to buy it on my own. i think most of you guys are using a sony digicam lol

I got mine just a week ago. It was sent by my husband through courier. It is a Kodak C530 with 5.0 megapixels. I'm planning to buy a sony so I could give mine to my eldest kid.


myLot reputation of 95/100. rhane7315 (4176)   ranked 175 out of 2,278 in photography  4 years ago

i guess sony would be the best for all of us since most of the responders here are sony users lol

Very strange that all the responses are Sony users....

And strange enough again is the fact that my first digital was a Sony. I can't remember the name of it now but I currently own a Sony Cybershot DSC-F707. I love it but I need to upgrade to more MPs. I'm thinking of getting the Sony Alpha 700 SLR.


myLot reputation of 95/100. rhane7315 (4176)   ranked 175 out of 2,278 in photography  4 years ago

haha lol it is indeed strange. our first digicam was also sony. it was only 3 mega pixels so my dad gave it to my youngest brother

I don't remember how I got my first digital camera. It must have been a gift at some point because I got it when I was young and wouldn't have been able to afford one myself. My first one was a Fuji with about 3 mp which at that time was a lot. My dog chewed the lens off of it a couple of years ago and I had to get a newer one. My other two have been Canons, I don't like the memory card for Fujis so I was really happy with the upgrade.


myLot reputation of 95/100. rhane7315 (4176)   ranked 175 out of 2,278 in photography  4 years ago

lol i guess your dog must've love the taste of its lens. our first family digicam was also 3 mp. i don't know how old is that digicam but its still alive and functioning right now

My first digital Camera was an Agfa, a lower end digital camera that took only 640x480, my avatar on this sight is one of my first digital pictures that I took with that camera, so even though its a low resolution picture its still one of my favorites, I bought it myself, I sold my SLR Minolta camera to pay for it,

My second camera was an Olympus, still Point and shoot however, it was 2.3 mega pixels.

My third camera a Toshiba a point and shoot of 5 mega pixels,

My 4th Camera Sony Cybershot DSC-h5 a higher end point and shoot and a nice camera, but I wanted better

The latest camera I just bought is a Nikon D300, and I love the camera I'm taking a lot better photos with it, and its going to take me a loooong time to learn this camera, its got so many features and bells and whistles that I can't even begin to understand them all.

I really need someone to sit down and walk me through it because manuals and I really don't get along...I need a visual training aid.

Mooch


myLot reputation of 95/100. rhane7315 (4176)   ranked 175 out of 2,278 in photography  4 years ago

lol it seems that you're a digital camera fanatic lol i love reading manuals and i think i can help you with that if ONLY i have the same camera like yours lol

I got my first digital camera back in 2000 or 2001. It was an HP Photosmart C200. It was 1 mepapixels and didn't really have any features at all! You couldn't even zoom! Basically, all it did was take pictures.

The camera belonged to my dad. He'd gotten it for work. After he no longer needed it at work, he let me borrow it to use for a school project. That was about the time I started getting seriously into photography, so he let me keep it!

I've purchased many cameras since then. I am currently using a Nikon D300 12 megapixel DSLR. I've come a long way since that little 1 megapixel point and shoot!


myLot reputation of 95/100. rhane7315 (4176)   ranked 175 out of 2,278 in photography  4 years ago

nice story you got there. i wish my digicam was also 12 mega pixels lol mine was only 8 mega pixels
