Cameras

Search the net, and go to as many electrical appliance shops
as possible, there are loads of cameras that may suit some
people but not others. So go for the objective, not
subjective approach!

To anyone with a camera i wanna know what kind is it

This question belongs in Just Conversation. Visit
<www.dpreview.com>. There are a few more such sites but I
like this one best.

Just curious, Am I correct to assume that you're looking for
a digital camera? Either way, you might get more response if
you specify.

I did a lot of searching and comparing before selecting the
Canon Powershot A80. The choices can be
overwhelming....decide what level of megapixels you want and
what features are really important to you, then optimize
around those. For me, it was non-proprietary batteries (i.e.
regular AA), and macro capabilities for extreme close up.
There were other features, but those were at the top of the
list for me. You will have your own choices.

Overall, J&R had consistently the best prices, even better
than Costco. jandr.comjandr.comOpen ↗

dpreview is very good, and also steves-digicams.com. Both
have very long reviews.

How about my camera, a Casio QV-4000? It's for sale. 4.13
megapixel, 3x zoom, manual control, best shot feature (soft
focus and other effects in-camera). You may have seen some
of my pictures, though they are usually never displayed at
their full size of 2240 x 1680 pixels.

I'm replacing it with a Casio EX-P600. Smaller, lighter, no
stupid lens cap, 6 megapixel, 4x zoom, more manual controls.

Anyway, if you have a more specific idea of what you're
looking for I can probably help, because I did extensive
research to find my replacement camera. It's not a Casio
thing, by any means. It took me a while before I came back
around to that one.

My requirements were a combination of smaller size (than the
QV-4000), more zoom, faster startup and shutdown speeds,
good optics, and no lens cap.

If you need more than 3x zoom, it cuts down the choices
quite a bit.

So let us know what you need. Price? Zoom? Amount of
features? Speed? Battery or memory type?

Oh, and to establish us as on-topic, I'll mention how my new
camera will be much easier to bring with me when I ride.

So are you selling your camera? How much? I've done some
research to, so I know most of what everything is. Your
camera sounds good. Reply if you're selling.

Thanks David
