:Even though I don't have a Nikon I have seen the many pics from these cameras and they are top notch. These cameras are great for capturing a snake's true beauty.

:Happy Shopping,

::I am looking into purchasing the Nikon 4500 or the Nikon 5000…. Has anyone used any of these??? If so what did you think of the camera??? picture quality??? user friendly???
::or do any of you suggest a better camera in the same price range or better.. (1000$CA)

:Hands down the Olympus C-2100. This camera has an ultra zoom that is fantastic. My son owns one and I am trying to pry it out of his hands. It only has 2.1 pixels but the quality of the picture is by far the best camera I've ever seen. The zoom alone is worth the price of the camera. I'll have my own this summer for sure. And I'll post some pics from it. Check it out before you purchase something else. I opted not to spend the extra money back then but regret it now. There are newer versions but the C-2100 is still available and the price is now more afforable. Just remember pixels are not the only criteria when purchasing. The one I purchased has more but can't capture what the Olympus does.
