canon digital camera singapore image
Joash Tham
I will be using it to record family moments, short videos or events. Not for professional use. I'm really newb when it comes to this. Also the camera should have good quality recording. not some 240p video. And must be able to record long periods of time, preferably.

Hi Joash, and welcome back to Yahoo!Answers:
First, when asking a shopping-related question, it helps to give us a budget figure (in either US Dollars or whatever currency you are accustomed to dealing with in Singapore). Camcorder prices span a wide price range, from a don't-waste-your-money under-$100 USD model to many thousands of dollars pro-level gear.
For practical "family moments" style shooting, stick to a reliable and well-made brand like Sony, Canon, JVC, Panasonic, etc. Avoid no-name Asian import models, or now-cheap rubber-stamp brands like Polaroid or Vivitar (both of which used to represent quality USA brands; now the names are licensed to cheap import cameras). Kodak "PlaySport"/"PlayTouch" and Cisco "Flip" camcorders are all discontinued, although still available from dealers and online closeout sellers. I wouldn't buy one of these "orphaned" models, since customer support will disappear after a year or two.
Feel free to post an "Additional Details" update to your Question, using the Action Bar menu below your post (mouse-over the blue Edit menu "pencil icon"), and tell us how much you wish to spend. Then we can recommend specific models & brands in your price range.
Also, tell us what sort of computer (Mac or PC) you have or plan to use, if editing or uploading your videos will be important. Otherwise, if just showing your raw video clips on a home TV screen is all you want to do, having an HDMI or other easy A/V-out connection will be important.
hope this helps,

What is the problem when my camera's LCD viewer can't display images?
Karissa G
I have bought my IXUS 70 in Singapore last week. I started taking pictures using the memory card included and was successful. However, when I started taking pictures with another memory card, the LCD monitor turned blank- it only shows a black shadow (looks like it has been covered by a lens cover--in digital SLRs cases or the camera's appearing to be turned off). I can't take pictures as well since it only shows the black shadow. I have taken it to a service center here in the Philippines and they said that it is a factory defect, the sensor has a problem.
Any ideas on how to fix this? Or would you know if they will have the whole camera replaced since it is still covered by the 1 year warranty (the camera's still 1 week old). I'm worried that I would not get my money's worth. Please help. Thanks!
Answer
Act quickly and get it to a Canon factory warranty station. If it's a sensor defect, they'll most likely replace the camera, as the time and labor would be too much. Since the camera is new, turnaround time should be at a minimum, but the service center can best advise you about that.
Be sure you don't leave your memory card in the camera when you send it in.
I hope neither you nor the service center in the Philippines opened up the case of the camera, because if it shows signs of being tampered with, Canon may void the warranty.
