Digital Camera Compact Flash Reviews
Which digital camera do you recommend?
Im usually the assigned photographer at our personal gatherings, so I usually take a couple hundred pictures per gathering.
The camera will be for personal use only, but I would still like it to:
-Take good sharp pictures (good focus, not blurry)
-Have a good flash for night pictures
-Have a big LCD screen.
-Be durable, as I use it often and take thousands of pictures.
-Be compact
-Has a good battery life and uses a rechargeable battery (not AA or AAA batteries)
Last camera I had was the Pink Nikon Coolpix S9, but within weeks all of the buttons and menus stopped working, and since I didn’t have a warranty on it I couldn’t get it fixed, unless i paid $175.
I know Im being very specific on the preferences, but I want a camera that is worth the money.
Thanks for any suggestions or reviews on any camera you think would work for me.
I have a Sony DSC-W80. I got it at Circuit City, and I love that store because the sales associates really know what they’re doing. They steered my towards this camera and I’m very happy with the purchase, it was $230, which is a lot to a 14-year-old on a babysitting salary, but I have yet to regret it.
The video mode is better than a camcorder, no lie. The sound is flawless and you can even adjust sound on the camera. The picture…never blurry or anything. The videos play on my 34″ LCD with no fault! I’m totally taking advantage of this feature!
The pictures are almost too amazing for me. The camera is a 7.2 megapixel, but I set my picture quality to 5 megapixel because it takes up less space and the pictures turn out beautiful. The image stabilization works really well. I tested it by waving my camera back and forth in the air and randomly took shots without stopping my camera. The weren’t the least bit blurry!
There are a few modes in this camera:
Auto Adjustment (For shooting with preset settings)
High Sensitivity (For Low Lighting)
Soft Snap (Adds soft background, good for taking pics of people.)
Twilight Portrait
Twilight
Landscape
Beach
Snow
Video
Prgram Auto (Allows more programming before taking the shot.)
Also, you can remove red-eye, crop the photo, and do a bunch of other editing right on the camera!
The lens is without flaw. I don’t even need flash on my shots because the lens can take in enough light.
You can play slideshows on your camera WITH MUSIC!
There’s so many things I like about this camera, I can’t list them all. I love it so much. If you get this camera, you will not have regrets. It’s only $230 max and worth the price. I have the pink one, but it comes in pink, silver, white, and black.
Also, it looks bulky in pictures but it is really small. A little thicker than a casio but less length and width.
Also, don’t buy a camera that doesn’t have a viewfinder. I was outside in the sun today and I couldn’t see my screen! I love that this camera has a viewfinder!
The Only Cons:
*The battery takes 4.5 hours to charge (but it lasts a long time on full charge)
*Sony uses memory stick PRO DUO instead of SD cards, but Circuit City has a deal that when you buy this camera, you get a free 1GB card (which is all you need.)

I would reccomend this to anyone…it is really user friendly. Each setting you put it on show a description of what it is. Someone who has never used a digital camera could figure this out with ease!
