    haha that would be hilarious....being a beach stalker

    wait for couples to take romantic walks on the beach and then just come flying out of the bushes, run up on the sand and take a close up picture of random people making out. sure you would catch a few beat downs but....what doesnt kill you only makes you stronger right?

    You'll play as CJ throughout San Andreas, and you'll quickly get swept up in a world of crime.

    why do i think this isnt a coincidence

    if you havent seen A.I already then you deserve to have it spoiled for you.....and trust me it isnt the type of movie that you can spoil....because you'll most likely stop caring way before the end.

    btw my fav movie:

    the first 10 minutes of the movie cobra, where the bad guy threatens to blow up the super market and then stallone says "go ahead, i dont shop here"

    wrst movie:

    lost in translation. i couldnt stand that movie. it was so like....pointless. yea the guy is in japan and he doesnt like it...it would have made a funny 10 minute short, but it just felt so drawn out to me. then again i watched it pretty late at night and i was tired, so maybe i just didnt have the patience to "understand the true meaning" *COUGH BULLSHIT COVER FOR A BAD MOVIE COUGH*

    the s1 and the A80 are about the same price....i found the A80 for about $280 to $300 and the s1 for about $330 to $400

    maybe not the same price but in the same category

    also there was this big argument on some forum i was reading that the difference between 3.2 mp and 4 is almost nothing

    Quote

    Did you folks who always compare 4 Mpx with 3 Mpx ever think this issue over? 4 Mpx is not an improvement over 3, its almost nothing. Let me explain...The detail that you see is basically the linear (!) resolution, which is just the square root of the megapixels...

    Start the story of the resolution from 1 Mpx (1280x960). The step to 2 Mpx (1600x1200) was an 1.25 times linear growth. Next step to 3 Mpx (2048x...) is x1.28, the next step is NOT 4 mpx, but 5! From 3 to 4 (longer side 2288, 2304) you have only the multiplier of 1.12, 1.13. That is 12-13% (this is not just because of the square root, but because that so-called 3 is 3.1 and that so-called 4 is just 3.9).

    See the 4 Mpx is just marketing. While from 3 to 5 you have your 25% linear growth again, and from 5 to 8 you have around the same.

    Conclusion: 4 is not much more than 3, and 6 is not at all more than 5.

    Bad lens or stupid image processing (like Minolta Z2) can make a 4 mpx image much less detailed than a 3 mpx image (like S1 IS).

    Anyway - people used to look at bigger prints from further than at the small prints. So you will not be bothered by the softness (you may notice the dots, but if you resize the image to eg. 5 mpx before you print you surely won't).

    btw thanks for all the info, i think i decided this is gonna be my choice. i asked my mom (no im not gay, she was a photography major ) whether i should work this week and then have enough money for something like the nikon D70 or take the P&S S1. she said that before i lay down any more money on the hobby i should see if i actually enjoy taking pictures, not just playing with features i dont know how to properly use yet. plus if i REALLY enjoy photography enough, i can always save up a K and buy the camera....since its not like i have to support a family or anything
