I am looking to install an after market cd player in my 01 mercury sable and it has digital climate control. I found dash kits for both the digital and the knob but the digital is way out of my price range. I was wondering what the job would entail to change to knob climate control to save a little bit of money and also if any new parts would be needed.

It shouldn’t be a problem to get the used parts you need at a salvage yard and disable the system..

Answer by A
Olympus MJU 1040,I think you will like it
some details :
The Olympus MJU 1040 is a pocket digital camera. It has 10 megapixels and a 3x optical zoom lens. It comes in four colours: black, silver, red and yellow.

The MJU 1040 is relatively cheap when compared to some pocket sized cameras. I also like the way the camera looks. It is one of the most stylish cameras you will find in this price bracket.

Specification

10 megapixels 3x optical zoom,The Olympus MJU 1040 is more stylish than any other Olympus digital camera I can remember seeing before. It is slim enough to slip easily into a pocket and its gloss finish makes it into an attractive camera. As with many digital cameras you have a choice of colours as the MJU 1040 is available in black, silver, red and yellow.

When it comes to features this is a 10 megapixel camera with a 3x optical zoom lens. The emphasis is on simplicity and ease of use rather than packing in every bell and whistle. So although you will find features such as face detection focusing, a movie mode and a few other basic functions there are not too many other controls to find your way around. On the back of the camera is a good sized 2.7 inch LCD screen. The MJU 1040 is compatible with xD and Micro SD memory cards.

I want a camera that isn’t too fancy. One that is good for taking personal photos for myspace. I was looking at the Canon PowerShot A720-IS at Wal-Mart but they were all out of them.

Is it worth paying 0 for a digital camera to take photos and video or will a 0-0 camera do just as good?

Best answer:

Answer by LEM
I can tell you which camera is cheap, and I can tell you which one is good quality… Both in one package – that’s a tough one!

Wait ’till Wal-Mart gets A720 in stock. It’s a decent p&s for the buck. Stay away from casios, panasonics and all kinds of vivitars, they are not camera companies – the camera they sell are side products made for a hot market to make a quick buck. The real quality lies in the camera manufacturers, who’s been making cameras for years. That’s Canon, Nikon, Olympus, Pentax…. just about it….

Again A720 is a very good pick in 0 range.

I am not a professional photographer, I am an amateur but I have taken a few courses and I love to take photos. I’m a student trying to earn some money and I want to shoot digital DSLR portraits for people. How much should I charge for a portrait shoot (half an hour) in which I send the photos to them by email (no prints or anything)?

Best answer:

Answer by Fishmeister
It’s never a good idea to provide digital images and no prints. Read this question and the answers..

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=ArP6ikt2tSRGGySTx4fMKk7ty6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20111022094457AAKx14W

The shoot is not going to be half hour. You could face half hour drive there and half hour back. You have to take into account petrol costs. Then the shoot, depending on what you are shooting could be an hour or more. Then you have to edit the images, another couple of hours etc.. You are talking around 4 hours minimum. Do you have the equipment to do this? Plus back-up equipment? No point in charging £20 for the shoot when the gear cost you a couple of thousand.

Best answer:

Answer by hypnoeyez99
I would recommend the Canon G10.

It allows you to shoot in RAW but also has settings you will find on DSLR cameras.

You can shoot in Shutter Priority where it will allow you to adjust shutter speeds as needed.
It also has Aperture Priority which will allow you to control the aperture.
Finally, it has full manual which give you complete control.

Another feature I really like is that it has a hot-shoe mount so you can attach Canon flash guns to it (like the 430 EX).

It also gives you the full auto “point and shoot” options on top of the more advanced ones if you need them.

Well let start this way do you have any photo studios or photo gallerys if so open them up and you should find a option to upload pics from digital camera. If not then you need to buy one or download one from download.com they have some freeware photo studios for free then you will be able to download your digital pics. If you have any questions fell free and email me.

I have a Verizon Wireless cell phone and at the top of the phone, an A in a box comes up when it’s in Analog. When it’s in Digital, a 1x comes up in a box. What is this?

Best answer:

Answer by Nick B
Analog and Digital (1x) technologies are two different cell tower technologies. Analog is an older technology that can be used only for making calls. If I remember correctly, I believe Analog coverage spreads further than Digital but, Digital coverage allows you to do things like text messaging, browsing the internet, sending MMS messages, and different multimedia things like that and there is a better voice quality with Digital than with Analog. Generally, you would want to stay on Digital, but your phone will automatically switch to Analog coverage if there is no alternative.

It is different for every phone, but you can manually change to Analog technology if it is available (I am not sure why you would want to). On my Nokia phone, you go:
Menu>Settings>Network, down to Mode, hit Select and choose Analog only.

Once again, unless you have a peticular reason you want to use Analog towers, I would stick with Digital!

Hope this helps!
