Which camera should I buy?

Postby crow » Sat Apr 04, 2009 11:47 am

I've been wanting to buy a digi cam for myself since I have always used my phones' embedded digital cameras. Now I've short-listed 3 cameras from 3 different brands:

Panasonic's Lumix DMC FX 150
Image

Sony's Cybershot DSC T700
Image

Canon's Digital IXUS 980 IS
Image

The 3 of them are awesome cameras!! Especially the Canon! Though I'm still confused. I'm looking for ease-of-use, which both the Sony and the Panasonic have, yet I'm looking for slightly more control of photo shoot such as shutter speed and other aspects, which the Canon has.

I'm also looking for a camera which I can use at parties, events, concerts, gigs...etc. The video feature has to be good too! I noticed that in the Canon, you can't zoom while you're shooting video. Which sucks....

Another thing I'm interested in is the ability to have a clear sound while recording video in a gig. The best video recording I have heard to date comes from the Sony Cybershot series. No sound distortion or whatever.

I think the Panasonic Lumix has the same thing.

What do you guys and girls think?

Would appreciate some opinions about this since I'm making my purchase very soon.

Don't worry about the prices. They're somewhat similar :)

Thanks

T700 is touch screen i think? I wouldn't choose it because of that. Personally when i look for a digital camera it has to be either a Sony, a Canon or an Olympus. I dunno how it is with the canon when recording a video, but with Sony for sure you can't zoom in. From this list you gave, i advise you to choose the Canon, no disappointment with it :)

I have now the Olympus mju1030SW and i'm very very satisfied with it :) it has almost everything i need! Took me 2 weeks to take a decision!!

Don't even consider panasonic..

Sony is a great camera in every aspect, but if video is not that important, and you want some sweet pictures, get the Canon.The Canon is 14.7 mp and the Sony is just 10 mp.

Im currently using the 980 IS, I've also used a dozen Sony Cameras. When it comes to picture quality, Canon stole my brand loyalty from Sony after the purchase of the 980 IS.

Crow, I wouldn’t advice the DSC T700, the whole T series suck balls..
My friend and I took the T500 for our last year’s Californian trip… The pictures turned out awful! The sky looked grey in all the pictures while it was pretty sunny all the time, the picture was grainy even while we were using 8.0MG size (I never go that far while using other cameras, big sized pictures annoy me a lot)… and of course THAT DAMN FINGER that appears on the top/right of half the shoots took by everyone else then me, because of the eccentric location of the lens on the top corner.


Here, see for urself :)
