used you can get good entry-level dslr's for around $400, but if you want top of the line full frame camera's you can get them for $1500+

Thanks. Yea I want a better one. For close ups an clarity. Hell I'm still using an old Cyber -Shot. It's not doin it. To many lost shots because they end up blurred.

well, with today's technology, most point and shoot camera's are almost on par with a dslr. you probably could get a new p&s at best buy and not be disappointed.

however if you do want a dslr, the canon rebels are great entry level and the nikon d3100 is plenty of camera.

Alright I'll get on of those. I need close -up clarity for computer boards. The one I have won't give me a good close up. Well, it will, it's just very rare and I need to see this stuff clear as possible. Without breaking the bank.

What do you need closeups of mother/circuit boards for? (just curious as I like to build pc's when I have the money hahahaha)

the t2i is around $650. you can find em a lil cheaper online sometimes. places like bestbuy usually have awesome camera/lens/accessory packages too.

Because I can't see worth beans lol. No, I fix them. Sometimes I'll take shot's before I take them apart. Sometimes I look for weak or cracked solder joints, jumper settings , blah, blah... Some are hard to read regardless. A good camera can make all the difference. Just haven't upgraded yet, like most have that fool with this stuff.

The ship actually is in HDR. It's an amazing app.
