OK.. we've pretty much exhausted our current camera.. Everytime we go into Best Buy, if we're lucky & able to talk to one of the sales reps.. & most of the time we get frustrated because they give us basic info.. so I'm pleading to the masses because you probably know more than the Best Buy sales reps that is overwhelmed with all the questions from customers & only get paid $8/hr or so...
Here is my big question to you..
1-We're searching for a camera that is real estate friendly.. but has the wide angle lens so we can capture the entire room.. stitching would be great.. video even better.. but we have a FLIP so we have that part covered..
Easy to use...ah you know the rest.. I know you'll probably recommend a Canon.. we have one now & the our problem with it is, it takes a few seconds to reload for the next picture... call us impatient.. but waiting 2-3 seconds for the next shot is a long time..
Oh..the biggest request is it must be ECONOMICAL also...
We appreciate your time & expertise in this matter.. it's easier to get opinions from those who actually use these cameras for the same purposes we are, than to listen to a Best Buy sales person who can only assume what he's been told...
Looking forward to hearing from you..!
Folkmoot USA is an international festival that visits Western NC,Waynesville, NC to be more specific, each year bringing dancers & muscians from many different countries. According to the Folkmoot brochure, over 350 dancers & musicians get to perform & enjoy our great weather here in the mountains, as we get to learn more about their customs. Last year, we had the privilege of enjoying the Folkmoot Parade which takes place in Downtown Waynesville & this year's parade is scheduled July 17th @ 1pm. I recall the Frenchmen walking tall in their stilts & the Chinese drumming away as they stroll past us. It was hot, but a great delight to be able to witness all the festivities. After the parade, all the groups gather for a mini performance in front of the old courthouse steps & the energy & excitement spreads quickly throughout the spectators. I especially remember my son's balloon flying up into a tree & the Frenchmen on stilts trying to recover it for him. The balloon was never recovered because it was too high, but my son did end up getting a bigger balloon from a spectator who felt bad for his loss.. This year's invitations include... SPAIN, GREECE, SERBIA, KENYA, ROMANIA, ISRAEL, INDIA, MEXICO & the NETHERLANDS

On Saturday, June 20 the Natural Resources Management Department of Haywood Community College, the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission, the Town of Maggie Valley and Haywood Waterways Association are sponsoring a CATCH youth fishing clinic during the
20th Annual Great Smoky Mountain Trout Festival. This year there will be two CATCH Clinics at the Maggie Valley Festival Grounds. The morning clinic will be held from 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM and requires pre-registration. An afternoon clinic with on-site registration will begin promptly at 1:00 PM.
The CATCH (Caring For Aquatics Through Conservation Habits) program is designed to teach young people "how", "when", and "where" to fish as well as to introduce lessons in aquatic ecology, water safety, fishing ethics, and respect for the outdoors. Many youngsters in our community have never had a chance to learn how to fish or to explore aquatic habitats. CATCH provides this environmental education opportunity.
The CATCH Clinic is open to youth between the ages of 6 and 15. Necessary equipment will be furnished. A parent or guardian must register and attend with the youth.
PRE-REGISTRATION FOR THE MORNING CATCH CLINIC IS REQUIRED. The numbers of participants will be limited. To register, call Jenny Carver (828) 627-4560, Haywood Community College, Natural Resources Management Department, between 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m., Monday - Friday.
Join the fun! Get hooked on fishing! (Provided by Maggie Valley Chamber of Commerce)
