Need a good compact digital camera… help.?
Hello. I am looking for a compact 6-8mp digicam to keep with me so when an opportunity comes, I can whip the cam out and get some shots. I’ve already two more real/serious digicams Kodak Z612 and Panasonic DMC LZ4. The ones I’m looking at now only have 3x optical zoom (NOT counting digital zoom). My choices are down to: Sanyo VPC E760, HP Photosmart R742, Kodak M853, and Panasonic DMC LS75. I like the last three best. Which would be THE best? I found NO reveiws for the HP or the Sanyo, and the Kodak has really bad reviews though I like it. The Nikon Coolpix L11 has a neat feature of letting you now when the image is blurred. Thanks for the input.
Thanks for the input so far. I forgot to mention I need it to be less than $150!
my adviced go for Nikon “S” series
