Digital camera's

revil · 12-08-2003, 03:19 AM

I'm thinking of getting a compact digitcal camera. Something like the powershot s400 or sd10. I want something that'll easily fit in my pocket.

I have a minolta dimage xt for when I go out with friends or just need something easy to carry around. Quality of shots are good enough for candids, not going to win any awards with this camera, but its super fast and small. Startup time is under a second from pushing the on button to snapping a photo.

casio exslim ez4 I think it is or a pentax optio s4 (fits in an altoids tin). How much you willing to spend?

Pentax Optio S4.

I have the Pentax Optio S (3 MP, 3X optical), and I'm in love with it. 2 of my friends picked up the S4 for the holidays, and with 4 MP, they're packing a lot of power in a thin Altoids container

I have a Canon Rebel 2000, but I too wanted to get one that is smaller and more compact. I wanted to get the Canon G5, but it was pricey, and was about the same size as my Rebel if I took the lens off. I ended up getting the Canon S50. It is also a bit pricey, but worth it.

It's small, and it rocks. I have a 512 MB Sandisk Ultra II on the way to my house. It does up to 9 MB per second write speed, 10 MB per second read speed. I'm excited to use it next week in So Cal.

If you want REAL portability. . . http://www.thinkgeek.com/electronics/cameras/655e/

hehe, just don't mix it up with your lighter.

i might just fork the 29 cent.. unless any of you from so cal have found anywhere else that is cheaper~~

get it printed at costco, if you have a membership

most of them have great quality Noritsu printers that can take cf/sd cards
