Knibitz some interesting info, I know several folks who swear by there cannons, I have heard though that some are only good for x amount of shots but have not been able to find out if this is true.Poppers, I have a feeling you are going to have a hard time finding a camera today with out going crazy that will support your lights. You might be able to find an adapter or slave to use on it but I have seen very few with that feature of late. Is the company you got your lights from still around? If so might want to contact them and see what they have to offer.Thoth has a Nikon Cool Pix, not my choice which is great for outdoor and travel but bad in low light and the batteries seem to get over heated with a lot of flash and then the flash does not always go off.I happen to be a Sony person, they have awesome low light albity and the mirco on them rock. I need to do some looking round too as a new camera is to be Thoth's 16th Birthday present so I shall be sure to share things with you and keep an eye on this thread as well.

Yes, camera's lives are rated in basically shutter actuations (how many times the shutter opens and closes)For the normal consumer photographer, even hardcore hobbyist, shutter count is not going to be a problem Your camera, even if refurbished, will last you a life time, and you are more likely to drop your DSLR and smash it, than have it die from too many photos. (the d3000 is tested up to 100,000 shutter actuations)you can download a software called Opanda to read the exif data off of a photo and tell you how many shutter actuations your camera has had there are also a few places online that allow you to upload and check it My Nikon D7000 that I got refurbished from wolf camera right after Christmas 2011 currently has a shutter count 8,554 its life expectancy is 150,000 I think I've got a while to go!edit: just checked the first photo I ever took with my D7000, and the shutter count was 1411. Meaning that whoever had my camera before, only took ~1400 photos.Which means it was most likely a floor model at someplace like best buy (many refurbished cameras are floor models that are returned)*math*roughly 1000 photos a month. 150 months? /12 months a year12-13 years?Pretty good for a consumer electronic I can't think of anything that's lasted me that long!*crawls back in the hole I came from and noms on my camera strap*._. sorry for like BLAHOFINFORMATION cameras make me excited .u.
