I'm only recently trying myself into digital photography. I do own a film camera a Nikon Fe way back from 80's with some lenses. My favorite is a Nikkor 105 mm f/r lens that allowed me closeups of plants. I have borrowed a Sony Cybershot DSC -85 little camera. The quality of image that I was accustomed is no longer there. I only recently uploaded a multiplant pic
. The Pic is OK but it lacks the quality of image that I had achieved before. I'm happy with my garden flowers and have found great pleasure in sharing my pics with ATP members. My interest in photography now is restricted to what I achieve in the garden and is a very useful tool to improve my gardening capacities. However I love to show what my eyes see when I focus on detail in so many ways photography allowed me before. Browsing thru Nikon catalogs I'm bewildered to what kind of digital body should I aim for. Also trying to still give use my manual lenses. I'm happy with manual photography rather than fully automated so that as I get used to the transition of digital photography (which includes photoshop later in the computer), I still get acceptable pics ( to me) from the start . Before going out to find what are my choices including second hand bodies I need advice to overcome my present stalls. Thank you for anyone that can help me. Arturo
