FIRST Photography

[Elgin Clock]

I as well, am one of the team's photographers..
(one of my many hats)

But, I strive to take the quality pictures as found on the unofficial 191 gallery, and also the cool pics that Heidi from 116 takes. (The non-photoshopped ones) .

My plan in the future, is to upgrade my current camera.

While it is a very nice digital camera, it takes forever to turn on, something that is not a good thing while trying to capture the action shots, common to FIRST events.

If anyone knows of a good digital camera, that is pocket sized, and prefferably takes video with sound, and... one that can turn on very quickly to capture those action shots, let me know.

I'm not looking to buy one anytime soon, but any info on new cameras, or old cameras will help with my research when I do buy one.

Oh, and due to a bad experience, one without a manually sliding lens cover would be just dandy.
