[Scribus] quality images for press (digital camera? cheap/freeonline stock s? scan?)

[frank gaude']

Well, when it comes to ruling, Nikon is the way to go. Their lens since 
1950 have been good, very good, at prices that make sense. Digital is 
also the way to go presently. The Nikon D70 or the Canon Rebel XT are 
extreme values for good color photos with enough resolution to produce 
beautiful 13" by 19" prints and larger.

That's my two cents.
