    I know from a photography point of view the control of a single lens
    reflex (SLR) camera is a very sexy prospect. Digital SLR cameras are
    likewise very sexy. I went with the 3.32 Megapixel Coolpix 995 for a
    couple hundred dollars on ebay (Item number: <edit snip> is an
    auction from Australia that has three and a bit days left, running
    for AU $86.95 for example), it is exactly what I need to get any
    jewellery shots online and it's highest possible resolution barely,
    but does, meet the needs of having them put to slide should I want to
    have them made to send to galleries, etc. Basically it's the best
    priced tool that gets the job done. The Coolpix 8800 line I don't
    know anything about, but it looks to be a product comparable to the
    D70 lines, and of course the D100-200 lines are simply a large step
    up to proffessional cameras (and price). 

    Note 1: I'd also get the remote Nikon MC-EU1 Remote Cord (ex: Ebay
    Item number: <edit snip>) as it doesn't take a simple $10 mechanical
    depressor. 

    Note 2: The company i would get my digital to 35mm slides done with

Good luck,
