    JPEGS degrading in quality

    Nope, complete BS. The "saving jpg multiple times" degradation argument also annoys me as well, yes it it's true some very small amounts of quality is lost; mainly if you're saving in different programs which use different compression methods, but honestly do a test. Have 2 copies of the same...

    The most basic question about lenses you're ever likely to hear

    As stated above, the actual numbers don't have much correlation nowadays. To put it in laymans terms, the lower the number, the more you see. the higher the number, the less you see. "When the first lenses where used in cameras, a 50mm lens was actally 50mm long, a 1000mm lens was actually...

    Not sure why im posting this here but oh well, here goes.

    People on here will be able to give you some vague ideas, but honestly, if you're serious about investing this money see a financial adviser. They will consider your current earnings, background information and probably help you find a good broker. Without knowing how much your current salary...
