Does anybody know of any good sites that do reviews etc
Looking to buy a newer model but want to do my homework first.
Anyone made one??????????
Just a thought.

Col

just use google to search for "digital camera reviews"

there are lots.

my small experience is that Nikon models, not always expensive, have clear pics but the colour isnt as rich as a kodak, which has 'noisyer' pics.

The Sony range seems good. For a base model, the P31 is good value at 175 quid and the rest of the P series are even better.

look at

www.dabs.com

and

www.internetcamerasdirect.co.uk

and possibly

empire.co.uk (or com?)

for prices!

I've got an Olympus 840 thats about 5 years old now. Looking a bit worse for wear so I'm saving up for a Sony DSC F717. We have them at work and the only word I can use is superb - 5 Mega Pixel, Shutter and Apature priority, laser focus, infra red for night shots, LCD screen and LCD viewfinder. Oh, and the pics it takes are pretty good too!

Only issue is the price tag - cheapest I've seen it is £540 from empiredirect.com http://www.empiredirect.co.uk/productdetailsnew.asp?modelcode=SON-DSCF717

I'm hoping to bring one to Stoneleigh so have a look there.

I've got a big old kodak DC200 or something like that, £750 when new, £2 now, 1 megapixel, no zoom and 4mb memory as standard. Time for a new camera I'm thinking. Pictures aren't too terrrible though, although it does seem to have a little bit of blue bias.

my canon powershot a40 is good, zoom, cpflash, movie mode, cost under £200 too. not a bad budget camera.

i guess these new fangled docking jobbies must be the thing to go for though...

Andrew.

Just seen one in the paper. Fuji F601 3.1 megapixel £319.99. £170 off at Curry's. Looks good. I have a 2 year old Fuji and it's been a good solid camera, not too heavy on batteries either.

yours, Pete.

I have a dog basic Fuji MX1200 and it works just fine for what I want. Don't think I'll be upgrading for a couple of years, not till I get photo quality at photo prices. A £30 35mm compact will beat any £500 digicam hands down. I took a once-use camera to france last year and the results were very impressive also if you lose or break it you've only lost a fiver!

i got a 2nd hand kodak dc210,takes good pix but nearly fills my handbag
