Im going to be moving up to a d70 and I no longer require this camera. Its a great camera for the semi-advanced amateur and can really take some good photos. It looks like this: ![http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B00008O37P.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg](http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B00008O37P.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg) Heres some specifics: - 5-megapixel CCD delivering up to 2,592 x 1,944-pixel resolution images. - 3x, 7-21mm Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar lens (equivalent to a 34-102mm lens on a 35mm camera). - “Smart Zoom” digital magnification, up to 3.8x at 3.1M, 6.1x at 1.2M and 12x at VGA resolutions. - Color LCD monitor with “sunlight assist” backlight feature. - Auto and manual focus control, with Hologram AF focus assistance. - Program, Shutter Priority, Aperture Priority, Manual, and Scene exposure modes. - Shutter speeds from 1/1,000 to eight seconds. - Apertures from f/2.0 to f/8.0. - Movie mode with sound, as well as Clip Motion, and Multi Burst recording modes. - Burst 3 and Auto-Exposure Bracketing shooting modes, plus 10-second self-timer. - Spot metering and AE Lock functions. - Built-in, pop-up flash with four operating modes. - External flash hot shoe and external flash sync socket. - Adjustable white balance with six modes, including “One-Push” manual adjustment. - Automatic ISO or 100, 200, and 400 equivalent settings. - Picture Effects menu and sharpness adjustment. - JPEG, GIF, and uncompressed TIFF file formats. - Images saved to three-inch (80mm) CD-R or CD-RW media (156MB per disc). - USB cable for high-speed connection to a PC or Mac. - Software CD containing Pixel ImageMixer, and USB drivers, appear to be Windows only. - Power from NP-FM50 rechargeable InfoLITHIUM battery pack or included AC adapter. - DPOF (Digital Print Order Format) compatibility. The camera itself is in great condition. The only blemish is that the upper part of the joystick is faded, seen here: ![http://www.imaging-resource.com/PRODS/CD500/ZBACK.JPG](http://www.imaging-resource.com/PRODS/CD500/ZBACK.JPG) A **fisheye/macro lense is included** , and I dont have a cdrw for this, but they can be picked up at most electronic stores for cheap and can be rewritten over and over. Here are some sample shots Ive taken: ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v176/hybridhatch/DSC03348x.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v176/hybridhatch/DSC03348x.jpg) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v176/hybridhatch/anty.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v176/hybridhatch/anty.jpg) Zoomed in with the fisheye: ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v176/hybridhatch/sunset.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v176/hybridhatch/sunset.jpg) And a non-macro: ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v318/OptimusPrim3/DSC03710.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v318/OptimusPrim3/DSC03710.jpg) This camera retails on ebay for 400+, and 500-600 at stores. Asking, **$350 firm** ---
