I agree with Papa shop around don't just go to the big dog store... even with shipping you can get a great deal off the website. Kat musicdoctordj 10-24-2007, 02:18 AM Check out the Panasonic FZ18 or the Fuji S8000 . . . Both 18X optical zoom (28mm-504mm) and selling for $399.99 US. Both better cameras than the Canon . . . and less expensive! eklondon 11-09-2007, 12:15 PM Soo, after a long time Searching my Wife won! I was looking for a Larger camera with tons o features and we got the... Olympus FE-280 Small Pocket size Camera 8.0 MegaPix the Optical & Digital Zoom works like a charm (I have been worried about Digital Zooms) So Far very happy with the Camera Paid 200 and comes with a 60 day Price guarantee Also comes with a 1 hour in store Lesson eklondon 11-17-2007, 12:27 PM Back in the market for a new camera MADNESS 11-17-2007, 12:30 PM Remember to look more at optical zoom than digital. Higher optical is better jfactor1 11-17-2007, 02:21 PM What's your new price range? If you can spend a little more, check out the Nikon D40. You can get a 2 lens kit from Ritz for about $700-$800. eklondon 12-11-2007, 10:33 PM Soooo, back again after a long discussion with the wife I have Won!!!! Purchased the Canon s5is Have to Brag Link to Standing for his Team LMHA21 Hockey STandings (http://allplayers.bladenet.net/allplayers/standings.do?newsMode=none&associationCode=CA00018687&seasonNumber=0&scheduleGroupNumber=24&scheduleNumber=4&x=26&y=5) groovielou 12-12-2007, 02:29 AM If youre going for an ultra-compact the two I reccomend: Canon SD870, or Fujifilm F50 Research: http://www.steves-digicams.com http://www.cameralabs.com Good Luck Groovielou eklondon 12-12-2007, 11:14 AM If youre going for an ultra-compact the two I reccomend: Canon SD870, or Fujifilm F50 Research: http://www.steves-digicams.com http://www.cameralabs.com Good Luck Groovielou I don't want the compact ones (the wife did) 55 is what I have & soo far I say it rocks for ease of use! jfactor1 12-17-2007, 07:06 PM Great shots Al!!! Much better than the ones you posted a while back. One thing you might want to consider is an external flash. Most built in flashes have a range of 10-15 feet. An external flash will reach much farther which would really help with those hockey pics. eklondon 12-17-2007, 10:08 PM I didn't use the flash on those PICs, (Glare off the glass) Jon Tuck 12-18-2007, 03:16 AM Big Al dont give the yank too much grief after all he probably wants the blue tail to return to Fox broadcasts. | |
