Need a new digital camera! - GoFuckYourself.com

cranki · 05-28-2006, 01:11 PM

I broke the display of my pentax optio s and now I plan to buy a new portable cam as the cost of repair will probably exceed the price of a new one?!

Any suggestions for a good, small and handy cam? Shouldn't cost too much, as I break stuff alot

I have this one for my pocket... It's agreat little camera and would cost about $325.00 prices may vary

go for Canon, always served me well.

You have a bunch of good options. I just recently picked up a great little canon for $300. It had a great waterproof housing for an additional $100. One of the features I liked was the ability to zoom during the video. It takes SD cards.

I would shy away from Sony just becuase of the propriatary membery sticks.

Two other great ones I saw were from Fuji and Olympus. One of them had amazing color and ultra sharp focus. I think the fuji was the best in low light conditions.

Hope this helps

Canon for sure. I carry a Canon Power Shot SD550 Digital Elph

if you aint planning on doing pro shit, just get a cell with a good cam in it... i love it although my cam aint really that great.. but new phones got 2 to 3 megapixels and great quality.

nice i need to get a new one myself too

I'd take the Sonys Cybershoot any day over Canon.

cj_purve · 05-28-2006, 04:35 PM

either the canon powershot range or the nikon coolpix range will have something at the right price and features, and fairly small. I've had a couple from both and they are always awesome. the canon Ixus 6 megapixel is an awesome camera too, and tiny, but maybe a little more expensive than you need.

get canon, they make great cameras

inthecrack · 05-28-2006, 04:49 PM

Canon always worked well for me.

pussyluver · 05-28-2006, 06:01 PM

Seems like most of the content producers around opt for the Canons. I'm using a Coolpix 8700. It's fine but wouldn't mind moving up and over to Canon.

Star 69 · 05-28-2006, 06:02 PM

Canon or Sony sybershot

czarina · 05-28-2006, 06:06 PM

Now days there are so many options, and the price has come down so low.

IMO canon is now the best bet from consumer to pro level.

just better, more natural looking images, and better technology.
