[COLOR=#red]I can vouch for the Canon point and shoot cameras. I had a 12MP Canon P&S with a Digic processor and it took great pictures. [/COLOR]

The rx100 is supposed to be one of, it not the best, p&s cameras the rx100mkII is a tad bit better, and their new model is probably going to be announced soon...none of which have interchangeable lenses. You can probably find the rx100 for good price right about now too

I been reading into it, buy not sure if I'm convince I wasn't that joint because of the big round lens .. I wasn't a bit more discrete joint as you know how females are.

Groupon has a deal on the D3200 with/ kit lens for 379, comes out to 408 shipped after taxes. From my understanding, it's refurbished.
1. Is refurb a good route for a noob?
2. How long did you guys wait to purchase additional lenses? I want to make sure that this is a purchase I don't end up regretting so excuse the dumb ?s please :\

Refurbs are fine and most even still have the warranty to them. That is a pretty good price for the camera. I think you are saving like $200.
As far as buying a lens, it really depends on what type of photos you like to shoot. I say use the kit lens for now but once you start understanding its limits whether it be its lack of depth of field (blurry background shots) or capabilities of shooting action shots, then I say that is when you can look into another lens purchase.

Appreciate it homie! Went ahead and purchased! Was going to wait but I didn't know when that price was going to pop back up. Hopefully I get to do some practicing this weekend!

is it for a girl? it's a tiny camera, the biggest downside to the rx100 models would seem to be price and that it maybe isn't the easiest point & shoot to use, it does have a fairly large focus ring, but it has a fast lens and the size is pretty much on par for these point & shoots? unless I misunderstand what you mean?

Appreciated! I use a D7100 and was using the kit 18-200, usually I use the 50mm 1.8D but its not wide enough for those shots. I also used a trigger to minimize camera shake. I didn't have a tripod, framing the shots could've been better but sometimes you have to work with what you got.
one more from yesterday.

I just bought my first lens (35mm f1.
, so one year after initial purchase. Great camera overall for any beginner.

[COLOR=#red]How good are Sony image sensors? Good enough that Leica uses them in the new all Aluminum Leica T...Not to mention the high end Nikon's.[/COLOR]

Yup the bottom one was where I turned the polarizer to have the effect. It's more clear in one of the other pictures that I took.
Went with
tokes99
suggestion and isolated the calipers in this pic. I tried to get as much detail from the tire as I could without making the picture so dark so that's another reason why I didn't go very dark. I'm impressed with all the detail the 6D is giving me even after zooming in.

I hear you, those things look timeless.
Got a chance to take the polarizer out today. Needless to say I was semi impressed for spending the amount of money I did. Maybe I wasn't using it right or was expecting too much out of it idk.
Can you guys tell the difference in these two photos?
Polarizer on?
I thought it would cut out all the reflections but I guess not.Oh well
Did you rotate the ring at all to see which had the better effect? The reflections shouldn't really be there. At least not that much. It looks like it isn't even on.

^yea I took about 5 shots while rotating the ring and the bottom one was the one that gave me the best effect.

If you're a beginner looking to get a camera I'd hop on this deal before it's gone. You can always get a warranty from squaretrade.

Wow. I started reading this thread from the first page (YEA the first page!) months back, and I've finally caught up with you guys. I've been into photography (still very amateur, far from a Pro haha) ever since my early teens, before I joined this site. So many great eyes in here, so much great information, so much talent! I'm getting back into the hobby and picked up a mirror less Canon to have with me on the go. I'm not anywhere near the level of some of you guys in here but anyways a few pics I've taken:
