Good Morning!
This is my very first post since i have migrated over from HWZ's Photography Forum.... I do hope that i'll get to learn from all the others which are more experienced here and if i do get long winded from posting some of my "basic" questions, i do hope it would not bother anyone.
Well, down to business i guess. I am about to embark upon buying a Digital Camera and being an amateur at that, so i decided that the A40 would be most suitable (although i am still trying to see if i the C2040 is better...)
My first question is one that i have asked in HWZ forum but i really needed to make sure.
Can the CF from my old Nomad MP3 player (Nomad 1) be used in a Canon A40 or a Oly C2040?
The CF i have in my Nomad is extremely thin (wafer like) while most Digital Camera's CFs are quite thick and have this metal case. Can it be used? Or is there even an adaptor to start with?
Another question that occured as an after thought;
Is the A40 good for taking shots of the night sky? (As in stars and such and knowing the local condition with all the light pollution)
Kindly advise.
