The Neowin Digital Photo Gallery


Recommended Posts

well I dont believe you would be able to take pics faster. some cameras are just meant to be at a mass consumer level. so they cut back on the prices (ie. components to make the camera run faster) and make a profit. its a corporate marketing scheme. sorry to say, but if you want faster photos, stick with 35mm and scan in negatives, or be prepared to spend more $$$ on merchandise.

PS: Do you remember what model your old Sony was? I think it might have been faster because companies want to save cash, so they cut back and spend cheaper each new year (excluding their professional line of products). And if your old Sony model was faster, why did you sell it? Pixel count isn't always an issue. People get confused and think, Oh, this one has lots of pixels, the little sales person says, thats very good. The lens and camera? they might not be as great as the pixel count! I hope you know this, it might be a review to you (if so, please disregard this)

But yeah, what model was your older Sony?

Sorry for taking so long, it was a P-31 or 32, prolly 31.. cant remember.. I didnt sell it, it got stolen :cry:

thanks, keldyn and graeme_7799...spyder is probably laughing at our huge 5" snowfall LOL

it was quiet and dark...the snow almost stopped and the sky lightened up right after i came in to fix the pix...i got lucky!!!!!! :bounce:

actually anita thats a decent amount of snow! nothing to laugh at there, just :cry:

we're supposed to get a snowstorm today sometime. sucks because its been relatively warm for a while and almost all the snow has melted. I was hoping to get my car out of winter storage but it doesn't look like it yet :(

    • Less powerful than a PS5 at twice the price! I wonder if they use that for marketing? Totally DoA.

    • How does it compare to the "SeeStar S30 Pro" and the "Vespera PRO 2"?
    • Indeed. And note that those units are MUCH cheaper than this new Steam Machine...ahem.
