Damn fine pics, Wes. Thanks again. I especially like the one of Meadows with her foot behind the rope.

Canon 20D, dSLR. Very happy with it so far, got it Thursday, and I have already shot nearly 1,000 frames. Still learning it though, I need to tweek the exposure a bit, I think.

yea exposure is key. i still have alot of problems in high contrast situations. i often feel like the exposure forces the shot. but i probably just need to learn to see through the lense more.

i am thinking of transitioning to a digital slr as well. 8mp seems decent enough, but if i wait a year i know i can get 10 for the same price. then you are in the pro range.

Actually, many pro's shot with Mark II that are *only* 6mp. The key is that the optics in a dSLR, with a really nice lens, more then makes up for not being super high megapixels. 8mp is more then enough for 99% on work. I mean, that is like 32 X 48 inches! Plus, while things always get bigger and better, if you have it now, you get to use it now...

you can sell to catalogs and for news items but climbing and rock and ice won't even look at anything less then 10mp for features, gallerys, and calender shots.

some pros i know are moving to 16 now. crazy.

to my eyes the lens is all that really matters though, so i am in agreement with you.
