OK, here's the thing, I've been wanting a laptop for a while now (I go on a few long vacations and need to take work/school work along) and I've saved $900. I can't seem to get the last few hundred b/c either I have to pay rent, take the cats to the vet or something. So last night I was thinking about this class I'll be taking which is actually a month long trip to Tanzania. I don't own a camera and maybe I'd be better off getting a nice camera and saving for a laptop this summer since I can get by OK with the crappy spare desktop and a camera is something just as useful. But I know nothing about cameras. I don't even know if I want a digital or SLR. Basically, I'll be in Africa for a month. I can't assume I'll ever have access to electricity or that it will be the same voltage (so no charging of batteries). If I go with a digital, I'll have to take a month's worth of battery power. If I go with SLR, I'll have to take a month's worth of film. But like I said, I know nothing about camera's and I've never been to Africa. Please offer suggestions...
