How to sell photography

Best Ways To Make Money Selling Photography:

Wanting a digital camera $150-$200.It must be 6mgpxl+& 3x op zoom & have video. Probably Walmart. Suggestions?

I am a young, amateur photographer who just had her camera die on her, and is looking at getting a new one. I hope to maybe be able to sell some of my photograpy eventually, but most of my photography will be hobby. I mainly take pictures of landscapes, and closeups of flowers and other things like that. However, I also take a lot of animal pictures. It has to be 6 megapixels+, must have 3x optical zoom, and must have video. I'd like to have a 7 megapixel camera with 4x optical zoom. I want it to perform well on closeups, not getting blurry. I also want it to perform well at night without getting too colorfully grainy. I want it to be able to take motion pictures without blurring, and I would like it if it doesn't take 2 seconds to take the picture like my old one did. I want one that will make clouds look 3d, not just flat. I have a memory card, so that's not an issue. It must have video, the better quality the better. I'm not sure what all I can get for under $200, and I'm pretty well limited to shopping at walmart. ANy suggestions as to a good reliable model or brand? Oh, and under no circumstance am I getting a THIRD Vivicam 5100!!! I'm going to stay away from Vivitar. I was looking at a pentax and a kodak. Pentax=6.0 megapixels, 3x op zoom $150. Kodak 7.1 megapixels, 3x op zoom, $160 Which is more reliable? Oh, and if you say that you've had a camera, please tell me how LONG you've had it. I was very hapy with mine for 6 months before it broke down.

1. HP has a good one for about 100 dollars go to the web site for "The source by Circuit City" I think it is thesourcecc.com but not sure. I bought it. I love it.
2. Kodak EasyShare C743 All the pictures on my website were taken with this camera. It is in your price range and requirements go look: http://www.geocities.com/krustyart
3. Sorry that you bought a vivitar- but live and learn. fortunately there are better cameras out there. In that price range you will be quite limited. However there is one camera that takes really clean and clear shots, and has unsurpassed high ISO performance in that category. The Fuji F20. It's $139 at Dell and possibly a couple others- and really rivals the image quality of any $400 compact. It doesn't have too much in the way of manual controls, and the macro may not be big enough for you. it has 6Mpix, but will resolve image details as good as any compact 8Mpix camera. It has a 3x zoom and video. You'll need to spend another $30 on an xD card. to make clouds look more 3D- you may want to buy a camera on which you can attach filters- such as a polarizer. However- these cost a bit more. remember- cameras just capture what you point it at. It takes a photographer to create art. Have fun. practice and learn.
