What is the best digital camera to get available in Australia?

best canon digital camera under 300 image

Q. I want a new digital camera.
It has to be over 10 MP and be under $300.
I have originally had 2 Olympus ones and wasn't entirely happy as the first one lasted only one year and the second one just recently mysteriously produced this black spot in all the photos taken so I really need a new camera. Any suggestions? I heard Canon is good?

Answer
I have to recommend the Canon PowerShot A590 IS. Amazon retails it for about $280. It has one feature that other brands do not, a separate optical viewfinder (the little hole you look through at your subject). LCD viewfinders just don't work well in broad daylight. If you are going to take pictures outdoors, you should consider getting a camera with an optical viewfinder.

what are the good options in instant photo camera market in India ?

canon digital camera 10 megapixel price in india image

red lily

I want to buy an instant photo camera and I have no idea as to which companies and what camera are good . I am totally new to it . I have no idea about prices too . Please help me out . I want a good camera and good photos (who dosen't ??) and I hope not too costly , I dont think I would like a digital camera coz I already have a sony handycam . Please help me out .

Answer
First you have to decide what is your intended usage for the camera.

If you have professional intentions you need to go in for a DSLR, then decide upon the model and brand.

If you just want it for fun and clicking family pictures, go for any normal digital camera that's about 10-12 megapixels. Nearly all companies have similar features, give or take a few.

Either way you will have to buy a digital camera only - film cameras are passe.

Remember a video camera's primary job is to take videos, so it'll never be too good in still photo results. The same also works vice versa for a still camera.

You can choose from various companies models like Sony, Nikon, Canon which are market leaders.

Cheaper versions would be available in companies like Minolta, Olympus etc.

You can even buy a camera online. It works out quite well for most people.

out of sony,nikon and canon,which is the best for a digicam?

v j

i want answers frm amateur n professional photographers frm india preferably.if there s a better company please tell me. i'm more interested in the quality of pics and durability rather than a stylish digicam.

Answer
Since you are looking for quality of pictures, I will point you towards the SLR's. They are head and shoulders above the point and shoot cameras for quality of pictures. In the pronsumer-level market, I favor the Nikon D80.

The February 2007 issue of Popular Photography has an article where they compared the top 10 MP DSLR's. I took the scores and ranked the cameras similar to the way Formula 1 gives championship points. I just gave 5 for 1st place down to 1 for last place, splitting the difference when cameras tied in their catagories.

They evaluated Image Quality (giving this twice as much weight as anything else), Ease of Use, Control, and System Flexibility.

The final order and my scores are:

Nikon D80 - 17.5 points
- BEST in Image Quality, Control and System Flexibility
Canon Rebel XTi (400D) - 13.5 points
- Tied for best in System Flexibility
Pentax K10D - 11 points
- Tied for best in Ease of Use
Samsung GX10 - 11 points
- Tied for best in Ease of Use
Sony Alpha 100 - 7 points
- LAST in Image Quality, Ease of Use and System Flexibility."

Then again, this is the same magazine that put the Sony Alpha 100 dead last in this comparison named it the camera of the year in the previous issue! (In a follow-up to this seeming error, Pop Photo published the explanation that only the D80 and the Sony had been tested by the end-of-year deadline for choosing the Camera of the Year. Sony won on the strength of low price and built-in image stabilization. The other 3 that beat Sony in shoot-out were not tested until after the Camera of the Year was selected, because they were not yet available.)

Go to the original question and read the responses for more opinions.
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AiG00eHyd0oq5b.X7J.jiULzy6IX?qid=20070113133139AAHWJY0

If you want to get the "best" for the real world, consider the Nikon D200 or Canon 30D if you can afford it. For about $300-500 less, look at the results of the recent PopPhoto test and choose from that list according to your taste.

Personally, I use a Nikon D200 and would recommend it without hesitation to someone who has some knowledge of photography. For someone who wants the "best," but is starting with somewhat of an "entry level" knowledge base, I'd suggest the Nikon D80.

There are people out there who will state their preference for the Canon cameras and I will not argue with them. The Canon 30D and 400D are excellent cameras as well.

You would have to visit a camera store or camera department and pick them up and see what you think.

This review is now available online at:

http://www.popphoto.com/cameras/3569/10mp-dslr-shootout.html

Here's another reference from outside the photographic press. Consumer reports compared the Nikon D80, Canon Rebel XTi and Sony Alpha. Personally, I'd say that the Nikon came out on top here, also. It beats the Sony in "noise-free ISO" with an acceptable rating at ISO 1600 (kind of optimistic, I think...) compared to the Sony's ISO 400. It beats the Canon (in my opinion) by having a spot meter that the Canon does not offer.

http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/electronics-computers/news-electronics-computers/november-2006/shootout-10-megapixel-digital-slr-cameras-11-06/overview/0611_digital-slr-shoot-out.htm

Here's another comparison of interest:

http://www.digitalcamerainfo.com/content/Canon-Rebel-XTi-vs-Nikon-D80-vs-Sony-Alpha-A100-Head-to-Head-to-Head-Digital-Camera-Review-.htm
[Note the navigation menu near the top of the review]

The next thing to consider is what lens to start with and where you go from there. If you are new to this, I'd say to just get the "kit" lens, which seems to be the 18-135 lens for the D80, and get started. Once you know where you really want to go with your photography, Nikon has an almost unlimited family of lenses to choose from.

How much would it cost to fix my camera?

canon digital camera 50d image

Vikki

I have a Canon Digital Rebel XTi. When I put in the battery, the camera turns on, but nothing happens.. When you try to turn it off the green light on top stays on, but no pictures show or anything..
Can this be fixed myself or should I bring it somewhere to be fixed? Or should I just buy a new camera?

Answer
Before you get too far into this, call the Canon help line.

800.OK-CANON

Your problem is not typical of your fine camera. It may be a simple fix that Canon can help you resolve. If it isn't they can help you find the closest authorize repair shop

My guess that buying a $200 P&S camera is not your first choice. The Canon 40D purchase price just dropped with the introduction of the 50D, so if you do decide to replace your XTi, you may want to consider it as an alternative.

Can you help me understand what the camera sensor is and what lens I should buy?

K

I've been doing photography for a few years but I don't really know much about lenses and how the camera sensor works. I have a canon digital rebel xs and I want to buy a standard lens. My photography teacher said I should get a canon 35mm wide angle lens and he tried to explain to me why that was the standard lens for my camera and how the camera sensor is cropped, but I still don't really understand it. Can you please try to explain it to me?

Answer
I would consider Canon EF-S 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Standard Zoom Lens for Canon DSLR Cameras
Standard zoom lens; 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6
Canon's Optical Image Stabilizer technology allows sharp hand-held shots at shutter speeds up to four stops slower than otherwise possible
11 elements in 9 groups; aspherical lens element to correct aberration
For EOS 50D, 40D, 30D, 20D, 20Da, Rebel XSi/XS, Digital Rebel XTi/XT and Digital Rebel cameras

Zoombrowser-How do I save a zoomed version of a photo?

canon digital camera software download image

Alex36

I have a photo on Zoombrowser (the Canon digital camera software) on which I want to zoom in on a particular part (the people) and save. But when I try to do that, and select "Save As", the photo goes back to the way it was (unzoomed). Can you modify the photo like this in Zoombrowser?

Answer
You cannot do that. When you do a zoomed in view, that is all it is, it is not actually recreating the photo into a larger size. As said in the other answer, to do what you want requires cropping of the photo and resizing. I have used Zoombrowser in the past and I can't remember if it is capable of that or not. It is actually a very limited program designed to do just the most basic editing functions.

A program such as Photoshop is what you need, or you can download GIMP for free:

Are there different models of the Canon Digital Rebel XTi?

canon digital camera 350d image

Anthony

I'm not a professional photographer, but I know someone who is trying to learn about photography and considering a Canon Digital Rebel. We see the Rebel advertised slightly different from one place to the next, some saying it is 400D or EOS or XTi (sorry, not familiar with the terminology yet) and some as a combination of those terms. Are there different models of the camera or is there just really one model? Thanks for any suggestions.

Answer
Rebel XTi(Sold in America) is the same version as the EOS 400D(which is sold in Europe).

It has 10.1 Mega Pixels and is the updated version of the Rebel XT (EOS 350D).

Its an Excellent Camera to learn with. But I wouldn't recommend the Kit Lens that comes with it. Better to buy the body, and get a better lens separately.

How do I know which digital camera is perfect for taking pics.?

gabriela12

I am a model and I need to take some pics of me, which digital camera would you guys recommend.

It all depends... What kind of lighting will you be using? Will there be a lot of motion? The following website has great reviews for all types of digital camera: http://www.dpreview.com/

Without knowing too much about what you need, it's hard to say. But a great camera for pretty much anything is the Canon EOS 350D / Digital Rebel XT.

I bought a Canon EOS Rebel digital camera and can't find a driver so that I can transfer photos to laptop. A?

slynkin

I plugged camera into computer (Windows 7 HP G61) but there is no driver that I can find to allow it to transfer pictures. I bought the camera second hand and it works great but I do not have the software cd to load onto my laptop and I can't find a compatible driver online for download. Any help would be great

Answer
You don't need a driver. Most of us regulars here use and recommend external card readers for upload.
Readers aren't expensive and are available where ever cameras are sold. I've been using them for years and don't even have software for any of my 4 digital cameras loaded because I don't need to.

Where to buy any lomography camera in Malaysia?No online shopping.Just wanna know the place?

canon digital camera malaysia image

Zaihan Ahm

Answer
1. Kinokuniya KLCC (in the art section) -
A bit expensive (more than RM1 - 5 than normal price) unless there's sale or discount but have more collections than RipCurl KLCC if u ask the customer service. They sell lomo cameras with 2 years warranty but they're not professional dealers.
I saw Diana F+, Diana Mini clones, Fish eyes2, Holgas and LC - A, Spocket Rocket, Super Samplers and maybe more packed like sardine in 1 tall display case. (I suspect they will order the latest lomography products LC - Wide cameras and La Sardina in this store 'coz i saw they unpacked Diana F+ Deluxe package with complete accessories like lenses and shutter release and they're the first store in Malaysia to have this deluxe package).
If you're into TLR type of lomo camera n want to assemble ur own camera i saw Japanese DIY Gakken magazine, the rare TLRflex Gakken in japanese section (RM126 very cheap but limited unit!!).

2. The Click Shop at PJ -
Address:
18, Jalan SS2/55, 47300, Petaling Jaya, Selangor.
Got website so u can compare prices http://www.theclickshop.net/about/
...they have more lomo info and tips like list photo shops that can develop analogue films in their FB. Wide range of lomo cameras and they have digital lomo camera and polaroid too!
I bought my first lomo from this shop...they have good service ( ^ _ ^ ) and always have latest products and restock.
Experienced and professional lomo camera store...i think they have Flickr group too.

3. Wondermilk at PJ -
it's actually a cafe or some sort of cupcake shop. don't have much info but who know if they have more to offer 'coz they're also an authorized lomography embassy and lomo professional too.
Address:
41 Jalan SS 21/1A Damansara Utama
47400 Petaling Jaya, Selangor

4. The Folio at Jaya Jusco Maluri -
Not recommended 'coz i don't know if they still sell any lomo...
They used to sell super sampler cameras and underwater type camera with very cheap price a few years ago.

5. Analogue Kaki at First Avenue Mall, George Town, Penang -
They sell so many type of lomo camera and they also sell used vintage lomo camera (russian made like smena and lubitel) and digital lomo.
They have polaroid camera too.
I think they have website but i don't the url.

6. There's one good lomo store in Subang Jaya but don't know the shop's name n the exact place...i'm still looking for this shop...( - _ - )...

If u have SLR but want to use Diana F+ lens on it...the no. 1 and 2 store sell the Canon and Nikon mount but not sure for which series.

Whats the best digital camera for uploading videos to youtube?

canon digital camera youtube image

Kellydoodl

Okay, so im trying to upload a video to youtube and my digital camera stinks, its a cheap version that hasn't gotten good reviews but it was free. So in your opinions, what is the best digital camera that has both quality and ease of upload, the ease of upload being chief in point.

Answer
Are you asking about camcorders or cameras?

I use a Canon Elura 100 camcorder and a Canon SD750 still camera. Both have excellent video, but the camcorder has better sound and video features.

In either case, I process all my videos using Pinnacle Studio Plus or Windows Movie Maker before uploading. That way I can tweak it any way I want.

Don't buy a camera based on a 'Direct Upload to YouTube' capability... that's just a come-on from the maker to hide the fact that the camera doesn't have any useful features. Uploading to YouTube is easy!

What is the cheapest external microphone?

Alex Hajna

I record YouTube videos from a cheap(ish) Canon, 10 megapixel digital camera, and the humming sound that occurs while recording in a large room is overwhelming. I'm looking to buy a good external mic for a cheap price that will somewhat eliminate the humming.

Answer
Buying something that's good for a cheap price. That's a great idea. It's not reality, but it's a great idea. A good mic costs good money, a cheap mic is cheap. If I could get a new Mercedes for $10,000 I'd be happy. But neither that, nor your good mic for a cheap price, is going to happen.

shrestharj

i have bought cannos sd 630 . But i know there is latest model of canon digital camera in the market . So i want to know what can i do with my cannos sd 630 and what can't i do ?

Answer
The Canon SD 630 is a very good compact camera.
I don't think you should worry about the other models for now. I would wait till next year to see what is coming out.
They are...
SD800 IS, 7.1 MP, 3.7x optical
SD900, 10MP, 3x optical
A630, 8MP, 4x optical but larger in size
The two SD models just have more megapixels and the newer processor.
And the SD630 has the same excellent movie mode...and has a large 3.0" LCD.
Just make sure you use a fast SD card.

Answer
Actually, your own photography skills will make your pictures look "pro and beautiful". So just focus on improving your photography skills. Even with a point-and-shoot camera, a person can take some very good pictures. Play around with the manual settings on your camera until you discover what works best for taking pictures under certain conditions. And read about things pertaining to photography, such as aperture, shutter speed, ISO speed, etc.

Something like the Nikon D3100 goes for 27k, with the 18-55mm kit lens included

It can do 1920x1080 video at 24 fps
Also checkout the Canon EOS 1100D, minus part is it can only do 1280x720 @ 30 fps
And if videos are a priority with you, the Sony SLT-A37 is the clear winner with 1920x1080 video at 60 fps

Do some reading and familiarize yourself
A dSLR is the ultimate photography tool

Ultimate selection you need to make, go to your local camera stores and handle the ones you shortlist

I have a canon digital camera with a 4x optical zoom. what kind of lens do i look for to upgrade to higher zoom? I am pretty camera dumb but am getting into pics so want a camera that wont get blurry upon getting far a way pics.
I found telephoto lenses that are 3x does that mean that my new zoom would be 7x since I already have a 4x or does it replace what the camera already has? This is where I am getting confused.

Answer
Most cheaper non-DSLR cameras will not allow you to upgrade: the most you could hope to do is get an adapter piece and a telephoto mount for it.

This only works if you actually spent good money on that camera, though since most don't afford it. Plus, telephotos are not worth the money if the zoom is that low, so you should just get a new camera in my opinion.

Edit: A telephoto will compound with your camera's optical zoom, so 4x3 = 12x zoom.

I should warn that most telephotos tend to make it more difficult to hold your camera in a balanced way and usually require their own stands if you want a clean shot.

how many pictures will an 8gb sdhc card hold using a 10 mp camera?

I am thinking about buying a 10 mp Canon digital camera with a 20x zoom. How many pictures would a 8gb sdhc card hold approximately? Also is there a chart where I can find this info? Thanks

Answer
Check the Memory Card Storage Table at this link:

Would choose a 3 MP setting unless you plan to print a photo larger than 8 x 10 inches. You actually lose picture quality when you crop a higher MP photo down to a smaller size. It also takes more money, memory space, processing, and transmission time with a higher setting.

Most companies are touting high mega pixel to sell cameras, but high mega pixel settings take longer to process and may not be needed unless required for large pictures or enlarging parts of pictures. Maximum print size for a 3 mega pixel setting is 8 x 10 inches. Megapixel resolution is about potential photo size, not picture quality.

The memory card I like, bought, and have tested is the Kodak 1GB for $10.88 at Walmart. Had liked SanDisk, but had trouble with two and these were a little more expensive so took them back. Both seemed about the same speed, but PNY was really slow. Don't like to put too many pictures on one card because something could go wrong and all pictures would be lost. Also, different cards could be used for different subject areas.

The number of pictures that memory will hold depends on the mega pixel setting on your camera. My camera will hold about 900 pictures with a 1 GB memory card and a setting of 3 mega pixels. It will take 84 minutes of video at 30 fps. Could use a 5.2 mega pixel setting, but there would be no improvement in picture quality.

The best way to move pictures to and from a memory card and a computer is with a card reader. If there are no memory card slots on your computer, purchase a Targus card reader at Walmart for $8.88 or another brand for less at Ritz/Wolf/Kit camera. Also, they do 3½ x 5" digital prints for 6¢ each on Tuesday and Wednesday.

CAUTION To prevent memory card corruption, keep batteries charged and don't delete. Wait for lights to stop flashing then turn camera off before removing memory. For card readers, double click Safely Remove Hardware. Select, then click Stop and OK.

Where can i find digital cameras for wholesale price?

aix4200

Does any one know where i can purchase digital camera at disounted or wholesale price like canon. Is alibaba a good places there are many sellers located in China . Not feel comfortable buying anything outside of US to avoid scam/fraud.

Answer
Alibaba.com has a lot of sources but as for all other trade portals, having "Trust Pass" or Gold Membership does not guarantee that the seller is legitimate, although the chances of them being legitimate is fairly higher.

I have sources for the Digital Cameras, as I, too, source for consumer electronics. If you tell me what you're looking for, I might be able to help you find the product you want.

You can use Trade Portals to find the goods but you have to check all their details. DO NOT USE Western union as a form of payment unless you have a contact in that Country (example; China) who can help incase something goes wrong.

You may also post for help on Alibaba.com in the resources section. As for payment options, paypal is not common in China but there is something that's called Alipay.com, similar to paypal.

I also have a small list of Canon wholesalers in the US. I personally researched them, they have phone numbers and addresses. One of them is in New York. I can sell the list to you if you wish to get this information. Just send me a message.

What digital camera has the best film (video) quality for a cheap price, under 150?

best canon digital camera under 150 image

New Thinke

I have a Kodak digital camera I bought for 100 dollars and 40 dollars extra for the memory card. But it doesn't film at night. Which sucks. Plus when I film something it's all blurry. I want to do professional videos, but I don't want to spend too much. Does anyone know a digital camera I can buy for 150 and under, the lowest price possible. I want the picture quality to be perfect during the day, and nightime vision isn't a big concern right now. thanks.

Answer
You want to find something with high mexapixels. Most cameras are 8, 10, even 12 mexapixels nowadays. And are usually around the $150 price range!
Canon and Nikon make really good video quality, but I think Sony is the best. Olympus is okay.

I'd say go for a Sony Cybershot, here's a good one:
