Sainou-Kun Posted August 21, 2004 Posted August 21, 2004 Im new to digital camras, the only close thing I have is the camra on My VGA 1000. So Does anyone have suggestions on a camra arround 200 bucks? Any ones that I should keep away from? Like I said Im a newb here, Hehe. So Anything can help. Also is there a Storage Medium thats beter then another? My Pocket Pc Uses CF, But is there any differance beween them when It comes to camras?

asus Posted August 21, 2004 Posted August 21, 2004 This is an good camera for that price range.. you will get some digital noise thoug.. but even the most expensae point and shoots have it.. http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc....-111-126&depa=1 here is a review of it from steavs dig cameras http://www.steves-digicams.com/2004_reviews/d540.html but this is the best run for your money.. if you wnat to spend a tad more.. it will me about 5 times better then that fuji.. trust me.. i know cameras.

Sainou-Kun Posted August 21, 2004 Posted August 21, 2004 Im guessing that one doenst come with a storage card of any kind? Other wise it looks sweat Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
asus Posted August 21, 2004 Posted August 21, 2004 ya.. you would have to get that as extra.. but it is needed.. they have come down in price now.. "the memory" i think that takes a sd card.. im not sure thogh.. NOPE xD picture card.. it as small as your finger nale lol http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc....-196-102&depa=1 that is a good one price wise <_< so if your willing to spend 300 ALL TOGETHER.. you could have a fairly decent setup.. me.. i saved and saved and bought a digital rebel.. this is the quality i get with it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimeMachine Posted August 22, 2004 Posted August 22, 2004 Konic Minolta is pretty goood Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
asus Posted August 22, 2004 Posted August 22, 2004 Konica is not good unles you get into the higher end of things.. even there 600 dollar dimage dig cam is not up to par.. and there is to much barel distortion at wide angle.. well.. if your going to go for 200 dollars max.. stick with fuji and nikon, thoes are your 2 best bets..

Sainou-Kun Posted August 23, 2004 Posted August 23, 2004 Once again Thanks, Asus, your Mem title should be camra masta Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
asus Posted August 23, 2004 Posted August 23, 2004 lol.. thanks.. if you want a good fourm for learning, and looking and browsing cameras and pictures go to http://www.fredmiranda.com or http://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/ its a cool site and yes.. i would stay with fuji or nikon.. come to think of it, canon is not a bad brand eather when it comes to inexpensave digital cameras.. let me take a peek EDIT this is a great camera http://www.newegg.com/app/viewProductDesc....-113-115&depa=1 and its cheep, it has 15 mb of internal memory, its then get this 22dollar memory card 128 mb http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc....-183-144&depa=1 now your prob thinking.. WHAT ONLY 2.2MP no WAY.. well.. to tell you the truth.. mega pixels means ABOSOLOOTALLY NOTHING! now. MP.. what do they do.. that just determans on how LARGE of a print you can get.. and a 2.2 will make a decent 8.5 by 11in print.. thats a LETTER size peace of paper.. now thats big enough.. NOW image quality, now that you know MP has nothing to do with image qulity what does? well first the lesn.. they are using a nikkor lesn for this camera, so you know your getting a good lens, and then your getting a CCD sensor, and CCD is better than CMOS in some ways and not in othars, on CCD you get a bit better image quality and less grain, but it uses more power.. CMOS 'thats in my dig camera" they are cheeper, use less power, and the bigger the better.. so ... your getting a decent sensor in this camera as well.. so you wont be disipionted.. now.. with that memory card you should get colse to 200 pictures.. so that will be good.. and its under your budget its a good little camera, and a major brand, nikon There is also the 3.2 mp version but i would not bother.. but its 180 dollars, and a good bargon.. but i would stick with the one above http://www.newegg.com/app/viewProductDesc....-113-116&depa=1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
