| Need to pick your brain Ok Bill and Rob I know this has been posted many, many times but I just need a straight forward answer. My digital camera died last week as you know from my posts. Anywho I am in the market and this is the criteria that I am going by. DH says he wants to purchase the camera from Ritz Camera Shop (not that this matters) 1. Use of general family/everyday/parties/kids etc photo taking. 2. Want to be able to zoom better than what i have or had now. I had a cannon that was a 2.0 not sure about the zoom on it. 3. would like one that has that new face recognize thingy and red eye reduction a possibility but not a gotta have 4. MUST have a big view screen. My old feeble eyes need it! 5. Don't want to spend over $200 for this camera. Color of camera doesn't matter to me and style doesn't really matter. I would prefer not to have something big and bulky but given I don't know much about digital cameras.... I've only owned a Cannon and have heard that the Kodak easy share isn't so easy to use. Also I have CF cards so I would like to get one that would accept them so I don't have an added expense. This is all I can think of right now, any suggestions/info you can give is really appreciated! Thanks! Gina |

it. I just bought Jan an Olympus camera made for her, the SW1030 (shockproof and waterproof) but they're both just a little over your budget...CF cards will pose a small problem, most newer cameras use SD/MMC, which are smaller in size. But the good thing is that they're cheap, cheaper then CF... Quote:
Steve's Digicams - Main Menu This link puts you to their compare link, you can scroll down and set your preferences, viewfinder size, price, zoom range, etc... Cameras - Steve's Digicams Once you find a camera you're interested in, you can check out his review of that camera and he provides links to on-line suppliers with their prices... If you want hands-on, once you chose a camera or two, go to Best Buy, Office Depot, Circuit city, Wal-Mart, or any other retailer with them so you can handle them and see what you want...
