I am guest blogging today!
Go on over to The Vue from Here. Lorraine is in the market for a new camera. She is frustrated with the limitations of her point & shoot and wants to upgrade to a DSLR. She has enlisted the help of five DSLR users to share their experiences and knowledge to assist her in making her decision.
Today is the sixth day of the series, when I am the guest poster! I will tell Lorraine whether or not I think it is time for her to upgrade to a DSLR or just upgrade her P&S.
The week has been full of great information. Head over to The Vue from Here for all the fantastic information. We are all taking questions, so ask away. And feel free to contribute your own expertise to the conversation!

Wow, that was such a helful post Margi. I've been looking at DSLR's lately but I think I will try a high end P&S first! Thank you :)

Margie, I left a message over at Lorraine's, but I also want to thank you here because your post was so informative and has helped me make a few decisions I was mulling over. Loved your photos too, especially the black and white one; I seem drawn to B&W photos nowadays. Maybe I should experiment a little more!

Thank you, Sue. Im glad it helped! If you want to experiment with black white, you can set your camera so you can take both BW and color at the same time. Your display will show the photo in BW which will help you learn how to see the light in BW which is quite different to color. Then when you upload to your computer, you will get one BW image and one color image. Let me know if you would like to know how to change your cameras settings in order to do this.

Hi Margie, a great post to round off the week - and I agreed with everything you said - I belong to a camera club near where we live and the 'image of the year' competition was won with a picture from a point and shoot.
All we need now is an internet club house where we can get together and talk photography!

Yes, that internet club house sounds like the perfect idea. I wish I had a camera club like you have to join. Sounds awesome.
