Comments on: Canon D2000 – The Awesome Antique Digital Camera http://blog.americanpeyote.com/2007/05/25/canon-d2000-the-awesome-antique-digital-camera/ American photographer, writer, thinker near Zurich Winterthur Switzerland Thu, 29 Jul 2010 12:52:11 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 By: Ashley Pomeroyhttp://blog.americanpeyote.com/2007/05/25/canon-d2000-the-awesome-antique-digital-camera/comment-page-1/#comment-116198 Ashley Pomeroy Wed, 19 May 2010 20:13:13 +0000 http://blog.americanpeyote.com/2007/05/25/canon-d2000-the-awesome-antique-digital-camera/#comment-116198 You know, about a year after you posted this I also bought a D2000, although mine came from Australia. I wrote at great length about it on my own blog: http://women-and-dreams.blogspot.com/2008/12/canon-d2000-kodak-dcs-520-let-me-take.htmlIn general I agree that it's a great posing camera, although the later Nikon F5-bodied DCS 620 and 720 are even larger(!) and more imposing. Also, it takes about nine hundred shots on a 2gb memory card and you can have two cards, and the image quality isn't *that* bad for the internet (if you size everything down to e.g. 800x600).Also, it has Pong as a menu option. No other digital SLR has a game of Pong as a menu option. You know, about a year after you posted this I also bought a D2000, although mine came from Australia.

Also, when writing this I was thinking of the development time of the actual technology, which I guess-timated to be about 20 years old, but I didn't make that clear in the article.
