GBK.Xscape Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 ok so i just broke my camera during this years graduation because i was sitting in the stands and had it in my back pocket, long story short the lcd cracked and now i cant see anything i am taking or pictures i have taken. Fortunately i bought a warranty w/ the camera so now i get a $300 gift card to buy another one with. My dad is also willing to spend another $100 on a camera so the range i am looking at is roughly $300-$400 dollar range. i was wondering what is the best camera to buy with this amount of money? Thanks for the help :] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve-o Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Here is the same model I have personally. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16830120083 It is very portable and has a big LCD!!! The picture quality is great outside with the sun, but isn't quite a sharp indoors (low light). This is just my personal opinion. Here is the same review that got me to buy one. http://www.dcresource.com/reviews/canon/po...t_sd800-review/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Bond Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 I remember the Cybershots used to use pretty bad glass/lenses, compared to what the Canons used when I bought my point and shoot about 3 years ago. I don't know offhand if they've gotten better, but it doesn't hurt to check. Depending on what you're going to be taking pictures of, it's particularly important to take a look at what sort of lens is used, and the existence of manual settings on the camera. My friend has a really nice Canon point-and-shoot, which takes some fairly decent pictures, but lacks any sort of control with exposure, shutterspeed, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GBK.Xscape Posted July 3, 2007 Author Share Posted July 3, 2007 thanks for the advice guys, i just got the box in the mail to send away for my gift card. im most likely going to go with a sony or canon. any specific models i should look at. thanks for all the help guys. i will most likely just be taking pictures of everything. even if i got a camera that had all the different settings for shutterspeed and stuff i most likely wouldnt mess with that anyways. but you never know. hope this helps :] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baliw Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 Did you already ordered your camera? If not , look at this camera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GBK.Xscape Posted July 7, 2007 Author Share Posted July 7, 2007 Did you already ordered your camera? If not , look at this camera. i actually havent got my new one yet.... ive been waiting and think this out, that looks like a really nice but im looking for a simple point and shoot type camera, something that i can fit in my pocket. Digital SLR's are very nice but for me it just doesnt make sense at the moment. thanks for all the help guys :] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
