I really want a good camera.

My mom doesn't want to spend money (damn I never knew cameras were so expensive), and got me a Casio Exilim EX-Z77. It has a fuckin' YouTube mode for god's sake.

Is there any chance of me taking non-shitty pictures with this? Is it utter shit or am I just being an ass to myself? I'd really like to get into photography, but this thing seems more like the camera you take in your pocket and use for photos of your stupid family on a cruise ship.

You can take good pictures even with a goddamned Lomo. Having a pocket camera just limits your possibilities more than a DSLR - e.g. no shooting indoors without flash, no dramatically blurred background on portraits, no long exposure effects, etc.

(Although if you want to be artistic, you should've gotten your mom to buy you a decent film camera instead)

what do film cameras have to do with being artistic?

I assume he just meant that you can pick up a film SLR for $20 that'll let you take pictures of the same quality as a $2000 digital SLR.

indeed

And getting your mom to buy you a $100 film SLR and then 200 $3 rolls of film over the course of a couple years is probably much easier than getting her to shell out $700 at once for a DSLR, lol.
