Canon PowerShot Digital Camera

I was looking for a new digital camera to replace my current one which isn't compatible with my new MP3/Video/Photo player.


I got my brother's, Mike, help & found this little guy on the Amazon.com website. 10 megapixels, 4x optical zoom, adjustable LCD screen & a Digital Teleconverter.


Yeah, this bad boy is going to the next Hapkido seminar!


On the flip side, this sucker is a power hog. It takes 4 AA batteries, so you know it'll run through recharges like a bad burrito through a tourist in Mexico.


Also, the price tag - while discounted - is still a high one: $310.00 with free shipping. The worst part is that I have to wait until 2/19 before it ships. At least that does give me something to anticipate.


Reviews have been excellent with one "semi-professional" photographer saying he preferred it over a 6MP SLR. Yeah, I find that slightly difficult to believe...but I guess if he says so.

Hello fellow bloggers, here is an excerpt from an article I found to be quite interesting:

In January 2007 Olympus released a new model, the SP-55OUZ, which seems to be the prodigy of this line, being a lot more performing than the previous model, the SP-51OUZ. The main characteristics of this camera are the image stabilization, 7MP resolution, and the 18x optical zoom range. The Zoom market became quite competitive and the model in discussion competes with other high quality models, such as Sony H5 or Panasonic FZ8.

This new Olympus camera is supported with Olympus Master software and AA batteries, has internal memory and xD picture card slot, over 20 scene modes, 25 language options, RAW and exposure modes, super macro mode, and 7.1 Megapixels. The SP-55OUZ model is not a small camera so some may not prefer it because of this, but taking into consideration its qualities, the size is not at all an inconvenient. It is similar in many ways to the Canon EOS 1Ds digital camera

Another great digital camera is the new FinePix S4700 from Fujifilm. This model is the optimized version of the FinePix S4600 model, which was voted last year as the European Zoom camera of 2006 by the most important European association of electronics consumers. The new model is compact and lightweight, has 10x optical zoom lens, Fujifilm Intelligent Flash system, having several scene selections. Its menu system is highly improved and it is ideal to carry with you anywhere, since it can be easily operated with one hand.

The most significant changes FinePix S4700 has over its predecessor are the ergonomic design, reduced proportions, improved ISO sensitivity up to 1600, new flash modes and a 7.1 Megapixel CCD sensor.

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-g1 is another great digital camera recently released on the electronics market. The G1 model, in particular, is Sony's first wireless digital camera, which has 2.0GB of internal memory, 6 megapixel and a 3.5 inch LCD with a 921,000 pixels resolution screen – similar stats to the Canon PowerShot S50. This model has the ability of sending photos wireless to other digital enabled devices such as laptops, palms, PCs or cameras. Reviewers say that Sony G1 model is the perfect take away digital camera, since its internal memory is pretty generous.

Hope you found this to be a good read,

Michael
