Photography is a big world, but with a little help from our
friends, we can master....
Never have worked with the Sony F828, but have a Digital Handy Cam DCR TRV33 that I use for my videography. Love this camera, hate the sound results, but that's with all.
For my still shots, I am using a Digital Canon Rebel XT 350, I've only had it about 2 mos. Still learning on this end, but have really gotten some good shots from it so far.
