What non-slr camera is the quickest?

canon digital camera 8x optical zoom image

sheila

I want to get a decent digital camera but only want to spend about 400 dollars on it. I hate the wait between pressing the button and it actually taking the picture - we need something that is quick but I don't want the bulk or expense of a digital slr.

I am hoping for at least 8x optical zoom as well.

Answer
you'll have to look at the shutter lag data on dpreview.

sounds like you might be in the market for an SLR-like camera. Some of the ones I researched were the following:

Panasonic FZ8, FZ18
Sony H5, H7, H9
Canon S3 IS, S5 IS

What is the relationship between optical lenses and the digital optical ranges?

I have a HP Photosmart 945 with an 8x optical and 7x digital zoom. I am considering a Canon Rebel for a replacement and want to know what lens I would need to meet or exceed the range of the my current camera.

Answer
Firstly, you can disregard any importance in using digital zoom. The HP 945 has an optical focal length equivalent of 37mm-300mm.
So, you will need a lens with a focal length in that range or more. You might have to buy at least two lenses to achieve that, though.

I have provided you with some links that may be helpful...
