Gardening tips, gardening info and heaps of ideas to help gardeners of all experience get more out of their hobby and out of their gardens.
As I was writing my last post I became a little curious as to what type of camera, if any, do other gardeners use to record their flowers and changes in landscape.
Do most have a point-and-shoot? Or, are more gardeners moving over to digital SLR's? Perhaps, some are still talking photographs on film and getting it produced?
So, it seemed logical to introduce the poll for this week asking gardeners for the preference in garden imagery. Cast your vote and I'll report the results next Saturday.

Only problem I have with my digital cam is the Black Russian Tomatoes turn out looking like every other red tomato lol!

That's what I found with our P&S as well. The blues would always turn out with a purple hue. Very annoying.

I have three cameras that I regularly use. I have a handy digital P&S, I have a DSLR and I have an "older" digital still camera that is kind of in between the other two.
I use them all and they each have advantages and disadvantages.
I wouldn't want to be without any of them.

Robin - you're making me envious now! I also have an old manual SLR but I've given up on the effort of using it especially for producing photos on the web.
The only reason I've kept it is so that I can use the lenses on my new DSLR.

I have a Canon DSLR (the Rebel XT). It is smarter than I am, to be sure, but i'm learning--and am going to take a photography workshop in a couple of weeks time to help me get more from it. Bought a macro lens earlier this summer and also love it (although again, need to learn more about it.) The most important thing to have? A tripod, or really, really still hands.
