WHAT THE PROS USE
You’ve heard the saying — you get what you pay for. And yes, it applies to cameras. Here’s what some northern Colorado pros use and recommend:
———
JOHN CLARKE
60, Fort Collins
owns: Clarke Photography, 1525 1/2 Remington St., Fort Collins
uses: Nikon D200
“I’m a Nikon guy. Nikon makes good cameras.”
Best point-and-shoot: The Nikon D70s is his “fishing camera.” He uses it for kicking around. At close to $1,000, it may still be a little pricey for the amateur shooter, in which case he recommends buying the best Nikon Coolpix model you can afford. They start around $200.

MICHELE M. BARNETT
41, Fort Collins
owns: MMB Photography, www.mmbphotography.com
uses: Nikon D2X
“My digital camera surpasses any film camera I’ve ever had.”
Best point-and-shoot: “I don’t know much about point and shoots. The thing to look for is a decent amount of mega pixels (around 5 or 6) and a decent amount of zoom.”
——
LISA WILSON
41, Fort Collins
owns: Novello Image Photography, www.novelloimage.com
uses: Canon Mark2 digital
Best point-and-shoot: Cannon PowerShot SD400
“It’s the camera I like to take on vacation with me.”

|  | "Humankind cannot gain anything without first giving something in return. To obtain, something of equal value must be lost. That is Alchemy's first law of Equivalent Exchange. In those days, we really believed that to be the world's one, and only truth." | |
|  | We're not that bright, even though in our own little world, we're geniuses. We like 80s hair bands and one-hit wonders, but among us we have respectable tastes, too. Metallica, Iron Maiden, U2. Pursuit of all things trivial is a lifestyle, not just a game. We like some sports, love other sports, and can find something to say about anything. We watch TV and movies and we've read a book or two, even a few classics (Yes, Classic Comics count!)
We call it insight, you call it what you will. | |

|  | Hola Amigos! I'm Sandra. I like to believe that people are 70 percent good and 30 percent dumb. I'm stickin to that story. Reading this blog might make you want to be good, but probably just dumb. | |

|  | What is up FoCo?
I am a recent college graduate of Minnesota State University Moorhead. After recieving my B.A. in English and Mass Communications this past August I moved down to Colorado.
I enjoy long walks on the beach, candlelight dinners, and heavy metal. My hobbies include reading and writing, music, movies, and getting drunk. Some of my favorite contemporary authors include Bret Easton Ellis, Chuck Palahniuk, and Kurt Vonnegut. My top movies are anything directed by Kubrick. I enjoy listening to anything that rocks.
Right now I am just trying to get to know Colorado and FoCo better. Mostly in order to find the best drink specials on each day that ends in Y. So if you know where I can get a cheap drunk on, let me know!

| | My name is Michelle Turley and I'm 28 years old. I live in Severance with my hubbie, Brandon. We have 2 dogs and a cat. We enjoy camping, four-wheeling, and just being in the mountains. I like to cook, clean (go figure), flea market, and play poker. I have so much to say about poker... | |
