Help me choose a camera

[RustRocket]

Not looking to spend a fortune, max probably 600-700 range. Just need something that can take nice quality pictures and be able to play with the ISO, shutter speed, and all that fun stuff. I also like shooting at night. I've been doing some online research and I've taken a shining to some of these


Canon PowerShot SX1 IS or SX30 IS

Fujifilm FinePix HS10

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ40

Pentax K-X User-Friendly DSLR Lens Kit - DA 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 AL Lens

Sony DSLR-A330L Camera and Lens Kit (DT18-55 SAM Kit Lens)

Sony DSLR-A380L Camera and Lens Kit (DT18-55mm SAM Kit Lens)

Sony SLT A33 with Translucent Mirror Technology and 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 Zoom Lens

[RustRocket]

Wow forgot about this post.. heh

Ended up getting the Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FZ40 for a great price, so far i've been pretty happy with it (shoots amazing video, nice zoom) but I'm probably going to want to upgrade again in a couple years. I haven't had a chance to take it outside much cause it's been so bloody cold here all winter and the camera freezez up.

will update with a few pics later

Very good timing; I’m in the market for a new one too. Post some pics soon. Enjoy shooting!

[RustRocket]

Day after getting the camera I took it to a football game, didn't get the best pictures cause I was smashed for the whole trip heh

Testing out the zoom:

According to me many types of cameras are available in the market but the best company in the world of camera is cannon .cannon is the best quality and its have a additional cyber snote 10 optical zooms .This is the best option of camera lover .

[veloceracing]

Cannon doesn't make cameras.

Canon does.

I just bought Canon Power Shot S95... It works tremendously. I recommend it to you. Clarity is awesome.

[ronierogers]

go for nikon D5100 if you already know it.

[ronierogers]

canon is really good in term of quality of pictures but there LENSES are too expensive compared to nikon lenses. canon is also expensive camera.

not true.. compare the following

nikon 35mm f/1.4G
canon 35mm f/1.4L

nikon 135mm f/2
canon 135mm f/2L

2 of my favorite lenses that i use on my nikon body but cost so much more than they do for canon bodies :\

[ronierogers]

i am starting to get puzzled which one to choose lol.

[GimPy™]

LOL GOOD ONE RONIE

[NilesGarvin]

A great solution would be to buy the latest iPhone, lots of features, including a trusty, HD camera.

[Morgan Harris]

Canon PowerShot SX1 IS or SX30 IS

I have always been a fan of the Canon camera as it is easy to use.

[berp]

I trust canon

[Jeremy Snow]

Mobile phones are pushing cameras out of the market. Their quality is more than enough.
