Jesse,
I use a Pentax k1000 or pz70. I bought two k1000's and 5 lenses off e-bay
for about 400.00, older cameras but easy to use and take great pictures.
With hindsight being 20/20 though I should of went digital. I just used Debbie's new digital Kodak Dx3600 man its fast, snap the picture, it shows up in the view finder you can delete anytime, then throw it in the docking station push a button and it downloads :wink:

I use an Olympus Digital Camera. Boilermaker is right. They are much easier to use although, I would buy rechargable batteries for it.

i'll probaly get a Fuji finepix 2650, It has a 1.5 inch veiwfinder screen and can shoot videos :o it has 2.1 megapixals. only around $200.00 Any opinions?
I use both film and digital cameras. The digital is a Canon G1 and uses all the same flash equipment as my Canon ElanIIE film camera. I also use a Canon wireless flash controller to fire the flash so I can point it down from the top of the aquarium. I have found that the translucent center piece from a tupperware jello mold (not kidding) makes a great flash diffuser. (it's much easier to experiment with digital) I highly recommend getting a digital camera with a flash hotshoe for photographing aquariums! :D
