Weapon X Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 Should I get this camera? I've seen it for $369 (Canadian), which is a pretty good price. Does anyone else have one? I like it because it's really thin, and if there is one thing I hate, it's bulges in my girl jeans. Just joking about the girl jeans. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Blaze Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 if you wanna take good pictures, and i hope you do, i would get away from sony. nikon or canon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Issac Brock Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 Hm. I saw one that my friend has thats thinner and nicer. Casio. Its like 7.0 mp and a huge screen and does video and everything you want in a point and shoot. Check those out too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a 7.0 MP would be way outta my price range, though. What's wrong with Sony pictures? I mean, it's got those Zeiss lenses, right? Are Fuji Finepix or whatever good cameras? I hear they're good for outdoorsy ruggedness type shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ckit Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 i would definately not go with sony. check out any of the powershot models by canon. the newer ones are very compact and the image quality is unbeatable. you would probably want about the 5-6mp range. anything more is a waste of money for a compact camera.

Jesus dude, 5d? This guy wants a point and shoot, not the fanciest of dslrs. Dude, whatever point and shoot you get will be fine. They're all the same. Image stabalization would be a good feature for you to have, probably taking pictures of graffiti, right? Just check out reviews and make sure everyone is satisfied.

MAR Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 i own this: Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ2 6x optical zoom with a lumix/lica(sp?) lens. 5.0 mega pixels. its an excellent camera for outdoors but it sucks for indoor shots. Not many shooting features but its still very nice. heres a good review:Click here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GLIK$ Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 I have some incredibly horrible, old, Olympus D560 3.2 MP camera. This thing has been beat to fuck and still works. Even though some times it just beeps and doesnt turn on. Takes decent enough pictures. Im thinking about getting a new one in a $200-$400 price range. Suggestions?

Issac Brock Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 Glik0, there's good suggestions for that price range above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fermentor666 Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 Get a Canon. I splurged on a 4 MP camera and my pictures come out better than the rest of the tools in Brickslayers. It can make even the most mundane and retarded pictures come out gold. They're 2 MB and 9x12 so you get amazing detail and clarity when you size them down. Here's a couple of examples: That's all without any photoshopping other than sizing down, no filters at all and not even any tripods. Camera was $300 US.
