See the "a few photo tips" forum post. Lots of help. Let my know if you have any questions.

I personally am an Olympus shooter. I have an e-500, zuiko 14~45, zuiko 40~150, zuiko 35 macro, FL50, Manfrotto 3021 sticks with Manfrotto Ball Grip. I also use Gary Fongs Lightsphere and Puffer. I also have an SW 1030.

I used to use a Konica model but I bought a new camera in the summer, a Fujifilm A100, it is much better and the pics are easier to load into the comp too. I don't use a tripod, I find placing a mirror behind the camera with the LED screen pointing towards it then you can get whatever you want to show, dick or arse, right into the frame rather than aiming and hoping for the best. Mind you, it means a lot of head and neck turning, many times I've almost ended up like Linda Blair in "The Exorcist" but worth it to get good results and not end up photographing half the ceiling if you just aim willy, nilly - pun fully intended! However, its much better when you are with someone who is into porn and get them to take the pics for you!!!

My latest camera to use is a Panasonic Lumix FX 150 which is tiny but produces the most amazing quality pix at A3. It has 'high definition' video which I have yet to play about with. This is good enough that individual frames can be extracted as quality stills, so perhaps I will be able to capture a better cum-shot. So far I have only been sucessful once with the 'anticipation method' as my orgasms usually destroys my brain/finger co-ordination!

I use an Olympus 400 and an Olympus 410, normally both at the same time and using a remote control. Quite often use a tripod.

I also use a FinePix card reader to load pics to my laptop, and use Picsa to pre-view my pictures for quality.

If I need to edit the colours / shades etc I use PaintShopPro PhotoX2, easy to use and far cheaper than photoshop.

My laptop is an Acer Aspire 5715Z.

Powershot A640 which has a vari-angle screen that you can turn to face you so you can see what you are taking from whatever view. A tripod which I consider invaluable. You can soften the light from a flash by simply placing some tissue paper over it.

I use a Canon Powershot A-560, my latest upgrade after an A-70 and an A-95. It does everything that I want. I'm considering a couple of slave flashes. I have several programs for adjusting the results to my liking, but I use Irfanview for simple tweaking.

People are using decent cameras on here which explains why the quality and standards are so high. I always prefer not to zoom in or go too close. If I keep the pictures a bit wide of the subject, I don't have any problems with autofocus. I can then crop the pics where necessary and rezise to 800x600. And of course never mix your holiday pics up with your dick pics.
