ya the next time u get a camera just git a SLR one like the D40 (or the Canon Rebel if you're lucky enough to find it cheap) costs about as much as a higher end point'n'shoot, and will last you way longer, so there's really no reason not to if you're gonna upgrade.
itz expensive if you want a full setup though, I think my dad just spent about $650 on all of this when the camera itself was only about $470.

Wow, in comparison the 2nd picture looks much better.
Also PC, if you're going to shop for an SLR ask me about it. I can provide a pretty convincing argument for the Rebel. ;) Psy, where'd your dad get all of the stuff from? I wonder if he got a good deal.

And I can provide a convincing argument for the Nikon :D
He got a good deal. <_< He got a bundle pack from Newegg with all the stuff except the book, filters and remote - those three were on Amazon. We were looking at filters when we finally found some decent ones, and there was a "bundle" with those filters and the remote for cheap so we went with that. On Newegg I think the tripod came free, but woulda normally cost $30.

i did anothr I'm likely to do nothing but HDR's until next week when I get my Nikon....... then I'll do better HDR's. :D
I put zeero effort into this one. Turns out Photomatrix saves all the previous settings from the last HDR I did, so I just used the same ones as the previous.
If you want a comparison to the actual lighting, here's one of the original unedited RAWs:
I'm likin HDR's. It turns normal bland photos into something cool.
ohz and heres a detail comparison
original image:
HDR:
You can see a board just under the roof of the house that's invisible in the first.
