[QUOTE="mdisher, post: 233581, member: 2724"] Off bike: I have Nikon gear now, used to have (and still have a slew of older Minolta Maxxum 35mm stuff, couldn't afford Nikon back then). All medium format stuff was Mamiya for the same reason(s), couldn't afford Blads. However, that being said, I have won a photo competition with a photo taken on a 1 gen 35mm Olympus Stylus, and you can take some very nice pics with most of the better point and shoots these days if you know how to use them. Nearly all of my point and shooters these days are Cannons. I'm currently looking for another one since I broke the lcd screen on my last Cannon elph. I shy away from Sony only because their memory sticks are proprietary and cost more than they should. Older sony's suffered from battery life issues too. I have used multiple Cannon point and shoots on the bike with good results, but shutter lag is an issue if you really care about it alot. [I]My Pillion can't take good photos off the bike no matter what the gear, so I can't comment on what would be good for her. :D [/I] [/QUOTE]
