Hi everyone, Well, Christmas is coming and I think finally I'll have the chance to ask Santa for a digital camera. The problem is, I don't know which one to ask for! What I imagine using the camera for would be the usual family pictures, plus acquiring textures for 3D software. I don't really plan to do any really high resolution textures like skin for Poser people, but instead, I guess I'll just try to make textures for objects. So, would a 3 megapixel camera do the trick or would I need a higher resolution? (The budget is not unlimited, unfortunately...) How easy/expensive is it to get prints from a digital camera? We have an HP DeskJet 970Cse, so I could print out some pictures myself, but I don't think it would be too economical, especially since I'll have to send copies to family members. Any recommendations for good cameras and things to watch out for? Thank you in advance for your help. :) Sue
