If you look at the image file names, the ones with four digit serial 
numbers are mine, and the digital camera is a FUGUFILM FinePix 1400 
Zoom.  See here:

This works great for outdoor shots with lots of light.  Not so great for 
indoor room shots, as the built in flash is rather "marginal" for more than 
about 10 foot distance.  The photo pickup array is not so fast, about equal 
to 125 film speed, so it needs good lighting.  It does have a 3x optical 
zoom, which saves a lot of walking around to get the right frame and allows 
some limited telephoto shots.  One of the best features is the macro lense 
that allows shots as close as 4 inches for intimate detail pictures of 
small parts, like this:

Other pictures from the Abingdon Summer Party, the ones with file names 
other than the 4-digit serial numbers, were taken by someone else.  That 
was also a digital camera, but a much more expensive model with higher 
resolution and possibly a little better light resolving capability.  (read 
that $$$$).
