congrats on the purchase.. post some pics so we can see what it can do

I\'m in the market for a camera myself (video though, DV) and i\'ve been eyeing the Canon GL2. I got an old Canon A-1 that is still my workhorse when I want to go old school.

At the canon GL2 price\'s range. I think the Sony VX2100 is a better deal as it have 3 CCDs that are 1/3" each, while GL2 only have 3 CCDs that are 1/4" each...larger CCD is better at capturing low light pictures than smaller CCD. But if you shoot video in outdoor daylight environments, i think the difference is subtle and shouldn\'t matter much between the two cameras...it is not until you shoot indoor low light environment is when the bigger CCD shine over the smaller CCD...

Search for GL2 and you\'ll see my review. Also there\'s a link to a Panasonic version that is cheaper, better and smaller.

Here it is:

This Canon PowerShot I have is pretty decent. Nothing like the Rebel, but I took a pic of a fly on my screen door and the detail of the fly was...disgusting.

You get that with the stock lens? I\'m allergic to bees. It would sting me and I would die. You rock.

Good show Jizzy! I\'m thinking about getting a Rebel too... I want to get the 400D (Rebel XTi?) and a 50mm 1.8. And somewhere down the line a Tokina 12-24mm.

I\'m getting that lens gman mentioned for xmas. Once I get 4 seconds to think, I\'ll post more. There are a couple nice ones that I\'ll leave at (3348 x 2118 or whatever it is) and crop. you can see the hairs on the pistil of a flower.

Datsh a nysh pic. You\'ll have a blast with baby pics.

very nice picture. Its quite cool how you managed to took a picture of the bee without it getting scare and fly away.

although the resolution of the picture was reduced to fit on the screen, it still shows how natural the color is. the quality of this picture is very film-like. Remind me one of those pictures you would see printed on national geographic magazine...
