I know what the bear is thinking, "Darn, another one got away!"

He touched it! What will he tell the doctor about the allergic reaction that sets in along about NOW.

Could be a lower south northslobovian goat eater (they have very small goats due to poor soil to grow grass etc.)

If I was spending that kind of money I would get a 6d and a 70d body only on both. A very good full frame and a very good crop frame for when I wanted the extra reach. With the savings from not getting the 5 I would add another piece of glass. But which piece?????

Panasonic Lumix ZS30 is a great choice. I use a Lumix ZS6 (the 30's ancestor) as my shirt pocket camera, even carry it when I have a DSLR with me. Sort of a backup just in case.[quote=Wisbadger]Greetings from Michigan!
a good quality point and shoot camera.
I have personally owned several Canon and Panasonic P & S cameras

Medium to higher price range ($300-550).
Great optics but do not need 20 or 30X lens. 10x or less is fine.
Good low light camera performance and decent video.
Macro capability and good true color high quality photos.
Nice to have wifi and GPS.

Duh! Both plus a lens for the D610 so it won't feel left out of the goodies.

I like dogs and cats, at least smaller dogs, big ones not so much, my 2 are about 20 lbs each and one of them likes our cats, as playmates. Pestered them so much as a 2 1/2 lb puppy they took to sleeping on top of the bookshelves. Since she is a big girl now and lives outside they go to the glass door and tease her. When she gets in the house they either try to ignore her, or hide.

Your kittens are really cute, but I am over my quota for cats, and dogs, my wife says no more after these are gone.

There was also the Olympus Pen series, they were range finder type bodies and used 35mm film in a 1/2 frame format. I had a fixed lens version but didn't like the picture quality so only used it as a pocket camera. It is still around the house somewhere, unless my wife or oldest son found it during cleaning and forgot to ask me if I wanted to goodwill/recycle it.

Nice to find someone else from Corona on the site.

English is like that because it is a composite language. Made up of multiple blended languages. We got different words from each and as a result some words end up sounding alike but spelled differently. Others end up spelled the same and sometimes pronounced differently. Some look and sound alike but mean different things. And often we have multiple words that mean nearly the same thing. Exp: house (German), mansion (French), of course we use the French for a big fancy house, why, the Normans took over England in 1066 and spoke French, they were the bosses and so their name for a house became the upper class type of house. Us peasants use house (haus). But both can be a home.

There were over 600 tribes in just what is the 48 states. They varied all the way from agricultural peoples with stone/adobe construction (Pueblo Indians etc.) to settlied agricultural with some hunting wooden construction (eastern woodlands) to hunting and fishing etc. and even very high level wooden towns supported by a a combination of fishing, hunting etc. (Northwest coast tribes). Just to let you know I am a retired history and geography teacher.

Couldn't resist another post. Note the address for the clip has comedy in it, like getting news here in the states from Saturday Night Live. Who says 'egads', anyone who watches a lot of old BBC stuff or reads a lot of S. Holmes novels. And your signature line, I happen to like John Denver. But being a country boy who has lived in the city for decades I totally understand and pity those who don't understand our stuff. I am bi-cultural; urban and rural, they are mono cultural, urban only.

That isn't herding that is baiting.

It has controls like a dslr but it is smaller and has a fixed zoom lens. Or it means you have to buy it from "Joe" down in the shadows under the bridge.

That is the version (only it was for PC) I bought my daughter for her college classes, it means you get goodies and extras with it. to be exact it has 3D and motion editing features.
