Batteries ask for 2500 or 2700 NiMH + charger pack that are slow charging as they will give you a good life. Not aware of brands but anything he picks up from the camera store should be decent. | ||

Team-BHP Support ![]() ![]() | ![]() Do not buy just any 2500 or 2700mAh NiMH batteries. Look for good brands like Duracell or Camelion or even everready Avoid Panasonic etc., because their are more often than not fake. |

Now if all you are doing is making prints (smaller than 6x8) a prosumer is great. Once you are looking at expand the output of your images to say 36x24" (like a large Plasma/LCD TV) a APS-C is a minimum. | |

TSK, have you seen the output of a P&S (1/2.5" CCD) on a large TV? I have (Canon 870 or 46" LCD) and it was disappointing. I assumed prints will suffer similarly. | |

Team-BHP Support ![]() ![]() | ![]() I have seen large prints from S3IS(don't remember the size buy they are 16" atleast). The shot was at ISO 100 . As long as you stick to low ISOs there is no problem. For example even an ultra compact like the Fuji F50FD will give you great large prints at ISO 100 and below. the now discontinued Fuji F31fd could do great prints at ISO 400 too. The newly launched 60fps casio can give you high quality 1080 HD video, and great clean still pictures at ISO 200 and below, though its only 6MP. |

Rationale is, TV sets have very limited resolution. Even Full-HD TV will have 1920 * 1020 resolution. Which is less 3 Mega pixels. So even prosumers should produce good-enough resolution for viewing on TV. Anyone has some idea about what could be the issue here.... | |

For Nikon DSLR guides, check KenRockwell.com. There's a pretty comprehensive guide to the D40, which should have a lot in common with the functionalities on the D60 as well. | |

The size of the pixels in a 10MP D-SLR is 10x (in area) to that of a 10MP P&S (baring a few rare big sensor P&S camers like the Sony R100). When blown up to 40"+ size problems will arise. | |

| ![]() Makes sense (and size of pixels on large TV will be much higher then PC Monitors). But the way TV is handling images can be a factor as well. Will try testing few images when I get a chance. |

| ![]() My Canon EOS 40D with the Siggy 17-70 got delivered today - Its on a plane to India as we speak!! Cant wait to lay my hands on it!!! Having said that I realise most of my initial shots are going to be extremely disappointing - till I teach myself some basics - and some Post Processing! |
