Do you use a point-and-shoot or slr?

Beulah!Beulah!
in Babies: 9 - 12 Months
I use a simple 7mp cannon sd750 that takes great pix and a 10mp olympus sp570uz which has a lot more features and settings.  I'm thinking of a digital slr, but shy away due to the bulk.  If you use one, do you use it a lot?  Do you carry it around with you?

    i have a DSLR (cannon rebel sx) and a nikon coolpix P&S.  i usually use my dslr.

    oops...forgot to answer the question.  yes i carry around everywhere (usually in the undercarrage of my stroller or slung around my body).  i look super touristy, but oh well.

    I have 2 P&S, I love my Canon S3 IS 6mp but I have a smaller P&S for my purse it's a Samsung something 8.1mp. I'm looking for a DSLR but DH doesn't want to spend the $$ on one right now.

    I've got a Canon Rebel XT (I don't think anyone else has this...everyone else has the XS or up). ?I love it for now. ?:) ?DH has a p&s that we'll use for quick stuff. ?I think it's a Sony but we're not entirely happy with it. ?I usually take my Canon when we're going places that are special (or 1st time trips).

    I use an SLR, but also shoot fully manual. I would say that if you don't, then ?a P&S would probably do what you'd like it to.

    I have a Canon EOS 40D DSLR, and yes, it's kind of bulky, but so worth it to capture the photos I want, IMO.  I also have a Canon Powershot SD 770 digital elph, which I always keep in the diaper bag or in my purse just in case I need it and the DSLR isn't handy.  I hate to be without a camera!  Wink

    The little camera serves a good purpose, and I liked it well enough before I got my DSLR.  It takes decent photos, plus it shoots short videos, which I like to use to capture quick moments in baby's life.   But I'm using the DSLR 99% of the time these days.
