Another camera thread,

I'm after a camera, not a fancy DSLR one, just a point and snap digi one.

Something that take good pictures has a good battery life and is fairly simple to use. I also want one that can do video, I dont really wanna spend much more than £100.

I have a few holidays/trips coming up and I will need a better camera than my phone. I don't mind buying second hand if someone has one they don't want.

The Canon Ixus series cameras are good value. I have a PowerShot SD1100 IS. Cost me just over a ton.

I was going to say...

Phones have decent camera's on these days. When I got my viewty thing it overtook my actual camera in every respect.

Also, I can superimpose a pirates eye patch, beard and hat, line up the person's face in it and take a picture... Literally second of fun to be had with it.

When will they invent a digital camera that just takes a photo, instead of the point.... press... 5 seconds later: CLICK...

I've had the Lumix TZ3 for approximately 18 months purchased on the strength of in depth investigation (for in depth investigation read 'online reviews' - bear in mind I know sod all about camera's). The Auto Flash is buggered and I've never been totally happy with the picture results so I'm looking for a new 'un.

Someone mentioned Sony Cybershot's to me but I haven't had the opportunity to have a butchers at them. It's interesting to read other people's opinion Thumbs Up

I vote for the cannon ixux range I have an ixux 70 and takes good pics, my dad is envious of it as his is a dearer camera and takes rubbish pics. I think mine is near £200 though.

I want an DSLR cam now.

I don't quite understand why they take so long though, I rarely use the flash for example and still only ever get the arse end of what ever I happen to be snapping...

This is supposed to be progress goddamnit!

I ended up spending much more money on a Canon but when I was looking ~ £100 this is where I was going to spend my money:

By the way, that's a really good site for reviews.

Cannon have a ebay shop

We have an old powershot which is pretty good as point and click.
Look for something with optical zoom

I went round the shops and had a play, I got throughly frustrate with poor shop assistants nd shops that wouldn't turn the camera on. In the end I bought the TZ4 as I liked my sisters TZ3 it has a 10x optical zoom.

Right my Memory card came today, I got a fairly decent one (Class 6)

The burst mode on the camera is amazing, I took about 20 pics at 9.1 mp in about 10 seconds.

Here is my dog this was taken at 10x optical zoom. It has been resized by flickr

https://farm4.static.flickr.com/3641/3556521021_c0f6fb51b9_b.jpg

Here she is with no zoom.

Can somebody explain ISO and white balance to me, I'm not sure what they mean. I also have a light histogram which I have no idea how to read.[/url]
