Ok, simply, I need another Digital Camera. I had a Sony Cybershot DSC-P52 (3mpxl), but I wasn't terribly impressed. The video recording was nite, but the format wasn't quite ideal (mpg). I'm looking for 4mpxl or greater, and ideally something that does capture Mp4 video too, but its not a neccesity, more importantly i am just looking for something that takes GREAT pictures.

I know this isn't a great way to ask for help - being so vague, but i am merely looking for some pointers for some good cameras, and it'll help no end. I am looking spend around £250 or so...

Cheers for reading. smile.gif

It's under the 4mp limit, but the Kodak Cx7330 does take great pictures. Maybe you should look at some other kodak products, but I'm really impressed with the CX (3.1MP)

Canon PowerShot A85, 4MP camera for about £170.

Or get the A95 if you want to spend a bit more smile.gif

Cheers guys, the A95 looks pretty nice...

I'll check out the Kodak too. smile.gif

Any other's worth a mention?

I was quite set on getting the Canon A95, but someone reckons i should get the Nikon COOLPIX 5400. The difference is like £100, so i am kinda skeptical as to whether it's worth it...

Anyone? This definitely would be the maximum i'd pay...
Steve
I just ordered the A95 with Recharagable AA's and a 256Mb CF. So scrap this post. I am sure i will be happy with it - I can't see me justifying the inflated price for the Nikon...

sony cybershot, it's a bit expensive but it worth it, the best technology out there, if u want something allmost similar but POWERFUL, so... u gotta chech creative DC-CAMs collection, DC not PC.

Kodak's latest lineup have a really nice feature set. Always underselling the competition. Depending on what you wanna spend it might be a viable option for you.

Cheers guys. I just had to send in a load of crap for a Credit Card Fraud check, which kinda sucks... My order is being prepared, and my camera and accessories should arrive from mainland europe tomorrow. DHL and Pixmania really are top chaps indeed - highly recommended.

Good choice... the A95 was one of my choices but I got the SD300.

Be warned that goods from Pixmania will be in French. Not really a big deal unless you're gonna read the manual.


At least this was the case with the 3 out of 3 cameras I bought from Pixmania.

The Sony camera i got from them had a multi-lingual manual. Maybe Canon do the same thing? None-the-less, it's no big deal. Thanks for pointing it out though.

The cameras I bought were Canons, A80 x 2 and A95, all had French manuals.
