What is a good digital/film camera for me?

500 megapixel camera image

I travel a lot and LOVE to take pictures. I would really love to have the ability to take high quality pictures (the same quality you can buy in the store).

I have a Kodak Easy share (5 megapixels) camera. I really liked this camera and it took good photos for a beginner model.

However I feel like there was a lot I couldnt do.

I was on a midnight train from Budapest to Serbia and tried to take some pictures from it with the window open. The pictures couldnt turn out. It was an unbelievable shot that I missed.

I would really love a camera that would be able to take quality pictures from moving trains and other things. I dont want to spend a fortune (nothing over $500).

I am a beginner with cameras, but photography is something I would love to learn.

Any Ideas on a good camera that would fit my budget?

Answer
If you're willing to buy a film camera, and don't mind to buy used, $500 is a lot of money to work with.

If you're serious about photography, I'd suggest buying and learning to use an older all manual camera. If you're willing to devote the time and energy to doing this, I would suggest starting with a Canon FTb and 50mm 1.4 lens(FD mount). This combination should cost $150 or less from a used camera dealer(such as KEH.com-their bargain stuff is great).

As you learn to use this camera, you can add more lenses and so forth. Beyond the 50mm, a 28mm 2.8 and 135mm 2.8, at about $50 each.

I have a rather large investment in the Canon FD(manual focus) system, with several great lenses. The lenses are for the most part very high quality, and are available inexpensively.

What Nikon photography camera is better?

I got a Nikon D3s for Christmas. It's only a 12 megapixel camera. I'm disappointed that such a big camera only has 12 mega pixels. The D7000 has a bigger number (7000) and it has more mega pixels. If I trade in my new D3s before I take it out of the box, how much more would I have to pay to get a D7000?

Answer
I'll tell you what I'll do for you, as a favor. Send me the D3s, along with only an additional $1,500 (USD), and I will have a brand new D7000 shipped directly to you.
