Digital Camera Expertise Required – anything to suggest?
I am looking for a new digital camera and need your help! I come from a long line of Nikon Coolpix (so far very happy) and have toyed with the idea of going back to SLR. After much debate I’ve decided I’m happy with a point and shoot, but with zoom being one of the top items on my list I investigated the new Canon SX100 and the Sony H3. I brought the Canon home last night and was very disappointed. While yes, the zoom is amazing, the delay between shots when using the flash is absolutely unacceptable, as is the delay with the continuous shot. Reviews for the Sony state the same issues with flash delay so I’ve ruled those two options out. With that, this is my criteria:
-Rapid continuous shot (2.5 frames/sec min)
-Short flash recharge time
-Good optical zoom
-Rechargable lit-io battery
-Quality pictures in low-lighting situations (this is my one complaint about coolpix)
-Compact to take anywhere
-Min 6 MP (I do lots of enlargements)
-Approx $200-250
Any suggestions?Thx.
Try the Canon Powershot SD750. It shoots pretty quickly, it has a short flash recharge time, 3x optical zoom, it takes a custom rechargeable lithium battery pack, it has ISO 1600 to sharpen pictures in low light situations, it is very compact, it has 7.1 megapixels, and it costs $250.
Here is the link to Canon’s web page for the Powershot SD750:
