I now have two cameras because I just went back and bought myself a manual SLR so I have a
Digital - Nikon CP5400 5.1 mp
and
Analogue - Minolta X-700 Japanese model with 50mm lens
Mine is a toy, an Olympus D-560. Sometimes hubby lets me use his Nikon D80 with super duper zoom lens
...it's like switching from a VW to a Ferrari
But still dont have a clue how to work it and still getting to grips with it !!!!
I have had my Nikon digital for two years and still haven't opened the book, i am so lazy, unfortunately with most digitals you can set it to Auto and just snap away and never learn the full potential of what you can do. One day I am going to lock myself in a room with the manual
I use a Nikon D50 with a Sigma 70-300 Apo lens and hopefully a decent fisheye when I can aford it.
Whist on that subject any suggestions on a decent fisheye about 12mm?
Olympus E500 and an Olympus C750UZ. Fynny thing is I tend to prefer the C750, I seem to get better results quicker!
Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning to dance in the rain.

Another one with an Olympus SP550 UZ, cracking camera at a reasonable price, loads of features, inc Super macro to 1cm away, adding a 4 sec piece of sound to a still image ( no not if you print it ) and something i have not tried yet, a time lapse facility, keep the manual handy though !
Canon A95 Supershot.
God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
Courage to change the things I can,
And wisdom to know the difference.
Canon 20D plus still got my old 2mp Canon Powershot A20 from 2001, handy for nights out and parties
Kop.

Soney super steady shot 5.1mega pixels x12 zoom, will also take several minutes of movie for general photo use. (with assorted filters i never seem to use)

fuji finepics E900 ( brilliant camera but only 4x optical zoom needed more!!)
and most recently canon eos 400 d with 18 - 55 lens and 70 - 300 zoom. am just learning. I hate manuals too!
Filters can help especially with landscape photography to balance out the exposure of the sky (which tends to be bright) and the land (which tends to be much darker). Cameras have problems dealing with the huge exposure ranges, so a filter such as an ND Grad (Neutral density gardient) can help. I also like tints like blue etc.
Its all about trial and error. Dull grey cloudy skys can look much more dramatic with a gradient filter. To try and do this in software is not so easy if the sky is already burnt out or the land is too dark to extract any detail without exposing lots of noise etc.
See below for a couple of examples. (Top: Blue Gradient, bottom: Neutral Density)
