Digital camera for portrait photography I am looking for a good digital camera for posed and candid portrait photography. I have an Olympus C-700 but it has broken so I need to buy a new camera. Two of my least favorite features are 1.) the delayed shutter response - by the time the camera takes the picture, the desired shot has passed. and 2.) A lot of editting is required in Photoshop, mainly to brighten the pictures (also sharpen, contract, color correction, etc.) Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Also, I would like to stay under $700 if possible. 90% of the photos I take are portraits, whereas the remainder are of concerts, scenery, etc.

Given the info you list above (especially the 2 negatives), I'd recommend sticking with a DSLR. Given your price range, I'd recommend the Canon Digi Rebel. It's probably a little more than $700 (I belive they retail for $799 without the lense and $899 with a lense). I just posted one of my first portraits taken with a Digi Rebel today. You can see it here: Senior Portrait I hope that helps... Good luck!
