which is better brand on digital camera? canon or olympus?

im trying to buy a camera, they both have 7.1 megapixel etc?

Answer
Olympus is relatively new on the camera scene, they started in the seventies long after Canon and Nikon had estabilshed outstanding reputations for serving professional photographers. Olympus never successfully competed, they just didn't have the range of lenses and options that sophisticated photographers demanded. So they catered mostly to the consumer and nothing more. In today's digital world it's not really any different, they still can't compete with Canon or Nikon on overall quality and reliability or on the range of lenses and accessories available for solving the different photographic challenges.

Olympus has a tendency, like Sony too, to create proprietary things. They have their own memory card so you'll pay a premium for their card since you have no choice but to buy it. That doesn't mean it's better, it isn't, it's simply more expensive. Worse, the industry is slowly standardizing on secure digital and compact flash so there will come a day when you won't even be able to get an Olympus card.

You will find their reliability is also not good. Sometimes someone gets lucky and gets a camera that works perfectly forever, more often than not though, your camera could spend as much time in the shop as it does in the field. That doesn't impress me since Canon and Nikon cameras rarely ever need any kind of repair at all. On the positive side though, Olympus service is very good.

When it comes to adding other things like lenses, you have no choice but to buy Olympus lenses. Other manufacturers like Sigma and Tamron, both of which make excellent lenses, do not make them for Olympus, there isn't enough of a market to justify the expense. They do make lenses for Canon and Nikon however so with those brands you have a lot of choices as to what you can buy to meet your needs.

The only positive thing I can say about Olympus is that they're less expensive than Canon and Nikon as a rule but then I guess you get what you pay for. However I'd never own one and if one was given to me free, I'd decline the offer.

In terms of Canon, I used a Canon professional film SLR for thirty years and accumulated quite a number of lenses and other things for it to meet my needs. The equipment was always top quality and has never failed me ever. When I went digital however I went with Nikon instead.

At the time I wanted to make the switch I was stunned to discover that Canon did not support anything I owned. That entire investment was made obsolete when their digital cameras came along. I then also learned that the Nikon digitals could actually be used with all the older Nikon lenses. Clearly Nikon has a greater interest in protecting the investments made by their customers. Since I was planning to have several lenses and other accessories for my digital world, I went with Nikon because I can count on them to not suddenly obsolete what I have acquired or will acquire in the years ahead. Camera wise I think they're equal to or even better than Canon anyway. Certainly their cameras feel better in the hand and their controls seem to fit my hands perfectly. However this latter point is a personal subjective judgement, you may not agree after having held a camera of each brand. It depends on your hands and what controls you tend to use most.

Anyway, I vote for Canon since that's your only other choice though I would suggest you look at the Nikons too.

Looking for a new digital camera.?

Jasmine F

I have a FujiFilm FinePix A205, and need something updated. I am looking for one under $300, 5 megapixels or higher, with a fast shutter speed. My Fuji is an awesome camera, but I take a lot of action shots and most of them turn out fuzzy. And I'd like to take several shots in sequence. I'd like to keep a Fuji, but havent seen a good one yet. Over $300 is okay too. Are there any that are a digital camera and a camcorder? That would be even better. Thanks so much!

Answer
I LOVE my Canon PowerShot A620. It's a 7.1 mp camera which takes awesome still shots, and just as awesome video. Great for home and everyday use. Easy to take on vacations and you can take some really artistic/creative photos too. A great all-around camera. My 35mm cameras are Canon too, and I still love and use it. .

I had a Sony, and I gave that to my daughter, and purchased the Canon PowerShot A610 for my teenage son. The Canon A610 is exactly like my A620, but is a 5 mp digital camera. They both take GREAT pictures, but my favorite thing about the camera, is the vari-angle LCD screen. You can even hook it up to your tv and see your pictures/video on whatever size screen you have. It's pretty neat on the big screens! (The necessary cords come with it). It is very easy to use, and a camera you can grow with. http://www.usa.canon.com
Go to 'products' to 'consumer products' to lead you to the cameras.

Our A610/A620 has a setting, call "kids&pets". Typically you use these on the subjects that usually has a hard time keeping still. But I also use this setting when taking pictures of my soccer team during game play. I've also taken pictures of my kids, nieces and nephews jumping in the air, a la cheerleader jumps, with great results. Lag time is very, very, very minimal. (e.g. delay from pressing button to actual camera capturing the shot). This is just one of the many settings the camera has to offer and you can also manually set and program your own settings.

For ease of point and shoot, just choose the setting in which you're taking pictures of, (i.e. indoor, outdoor, nighttime, portrait, fireworks, snow, beach, and 'auto' [automatic]), and it'll adjust accordingly the proper exposure/settings. And it even has an 'underwater' mode to use, but that's if you purchase the special housing for the camera. (I don't have the housing. I'll wait to save up or find it for very inexpensive). If you get more experience or for the experienced, you can manually choose exposure and settings like the old 35 mm.

I'm a bargain hunter. I purchased both NEW Canon this late spring 2006 on line. My son's was under $200 and mine was $204. Just Google (or Froogle) or Yahoo! Search any Canon model, and then see which merchant has the best price with those low price websites and order on-line. The price is waaaay better than going physically to the stores. If you need it right away, just upgrade the shipping. It's still cheaper than buying at the stores. No matter what model camera you're searching for, better prices are on-line.

I don't know if you'll find this model (A610) at the stores. They have newer models, the A630 (8mp) and the A640 (10mp), they boast more mega-pixels and ISO settings. But 5mp, more than suffices for most users. What I did was physically touched and feel the camera at the store, then go on-line to purchase. But if you prefer to purchase at the stores, some good places are Best Buy, Wal Mart and Target. Suprisingly enough, they have good selection at Wal-Mart and Target.

Here is the link if you'd like to check out the specs on these models and other Canon cameras: http://www.usa.canon.com
and go to 'products' to 'consumer products' to lead you to the cameras. It tells you what the camera has and what it looks like up close.

While you're searching on-line, you'll also find many reviews on these cameras. All with many positives things to say about the camer and you can also find information on these cameras in Yahoo! Tech http://tech.yahoo.com/rc/digital-cameras...

Hope this helps in your hunt for a new digital camera!

Which canon digital camera is the best?

Answer
It all depends on what kind of camera your looking for. are you looking for a low level compact camera or a high level compact camera. Or even an entry level dSLR.
low level compact camera:

1.The canon powershot a570 has 4x optical zoom with 7.1 megapixels. its a great low level camera since it has ois (optical image stabilizer) and costs around 200$
http://www.dpreview.com/news/0702/07022201canonsa560a570is.asp

2. the canon powershot sd850 which has 4x optical zoom with
8 megapixels and digic III noise reduction. For more info on this one look at:http://www.dpreview.com/news/0705/07050702canonsd850is.asp

High level Compact cameras:

1. The canon powershot sx100 is it has 10x optical zoom with 8 megapixels and face detection. Face detection automatcially puts the faces in the picture into perfect detail.
http://www.dpreview.com/news/0708/07082004canonsx100is.asp

2. The canon powershot s5 is has 12x optical zoom with 8 megapixels with image stabilizer to lessen the shake while your taking pictures.
http://www.dpreview.com/news/0705/07050703canons5is.asp

dSLRs:

1. The canon mark III has many interchangable lens. with 10 pictures a second The mark III is the best canon camera out there although i'd doubt you'd want to buy one they cost 6,000$ alone without a lens.

Digital Cameras?

didthegras

I'm in the market for a good digital camera. My limit is about $350. I really don't need many special features, I just want something that will take good quality pictures. I'm wanting to go with a 7.1 megapixel, but I'm not sure what power optical zoom that I'll need. I'm trying to avoid digital zoom.
Also, would it be a good idea to buy a camera that comes with a docking station? What are the benefits/drawbacks?
Thanks and God Bless!!!

Answer
I suggest the Canon PowerShot A630. You won't have to spend $350- Website dpreview.com shows Beach Camera selling it for $185-+ shipping. 4X optical zoom, 8 mgapixels, and will give yo an excellent 8X10 print. In addition to auto has manual controls if you prefer. Above average battery life using AA rechargeables.
PS should you buy a camera that's 7 or 8 megapixels, buy at least a 2GB memory card, because the more megapixels takes up more memory, which results in the amount of shots you can take on the memory card.

canon digital camera 7.1?

Dancing gi

In this camera, can the camera make the picture black and white and have an object just be in color?

Answer
Which canon model camera, and which line? the next time you ask a question include that little tid-bit of information. It'll allow us to answer your questions more clearly. So, having that said, i may be unable to fully answer your question. So, usually if you just have a little 7 megapixel, slim and slender canon powershot camera, you can't do this. The feature that allows you to do such is " color accent ", singles out a color, and everything else is in black and white. If you want to get this feature, you'll have to spend quite a bit of money, at least 200$ in my opinion. So, i have a canon powershot s3IS, it has color swap and color accent, but it was a three hundred dollar camera, and i guess that feature could have been expected. There's a newer version of this camera that canon powershot s5IS, which is about the same, and has all of the same features
Remember: if you can't afford a canon camera that can do such, you'll have to pay to get a software. ( i haven't heard of a free software which let you do as such)

How many pictures can I take with a 2GB SD memory card with a 7.1 megapixel camera?

canon digital camera 7.1 megapixel image

lolkimlol1

Does anyone know or have any idea? I have a Canon camera with 7.1 megapixels, and it has great quality. The default size of each picture is 640 by 480. I'm pretty sure this is enough information for someone to answer.

Answer
I don't think any digital cameras these days would be set at default 640x480. That's VGA quality. Unless you mean its video recording resolution is at 640x480, 15 or 30 fps.

A 7.1 MP canon camera's default should be at 7.1 MP, around 3072 x 2304 (for powershot A620).

You can refer to this site to see how many pics you can take at best quality 7 megapixels (around 600 pics).

If you've set your pictures to the lowest resolutions 640x480. Which is 4.8 times less than it's best quality. (so 600 x 4.8 = 2880 pics)

What are the significant features to look for in a digital camera?

I have a problem. My family bought a camera made by "OLYMPUS" that was 10mgp, 3x optical zoom, 24 shooting modes with a 2.5" LCD. But even if it's 10mgp, the image quality isn't that sharp all the time, unless it zooms really up close. Compared to my other friends, with cameras like 7 or 8 mgp, made by other brands, their image quality is a bit better. I was thinking of buying a 7.1 mgp camera made by "CANON"

What are the key features to help me look for a great digital camera with sharp image quality? Does the brand matter?
The canon camera is 3x and 4x optical zoom. Something like that. Is that alright?

Answer
You know the difference between a 160x320 pic and a 1200x1600 pic, right? Well, the more megapixels, the bigger the picture... Also, the more megapixels, the more expensive the optic chip and the more expensive the camera.

How many megapixels you need depends on what you want to use your pics for... If you want to make large high quality prints, the more megapixels the better... If you're only going to use it to put your pics on the web, 4 or 5 megapixels is excessive... For normal size prints, 7 or 8 megapixels is plenty.

Except! If you like to crop your pictures... That is cutting of the sides, to get a better composition for example... In that case, the more megapixels the better also counts...

What is most important is the quality of the optic chip, closely followed by the quality of the lens... Optical zoom is also very important if you want to use your zoom (and who doesn't?)... The more optical zoom, the bigger the lens, the more expensive the lens, or, the more optical zoom, the smaller the optical chip, the poorer the optical chip...

The better (and newer) the optical chip, the more features it has, like for instance face recognition that the latest chips have... It helps your camera set itself for the best possible shot in all kinds of conditions...

All this is pretty confusing and hard to figure out if you're not a pro... That's why it's good to read good reviews on camera's before you buy them...

Canon and Nikon have been pro-camera-brands for decades and are used by all the pro's... Their easy-to-use consumer camera's are excellent (I just bought a Canon PowerShot 570 IS myself yesterday)... You can't really go wrong with a Canon or a Nikon... Make VERY sure you get the latest model though, or get a VERY good price on an older model!

-edit-

well, the more the better, the better the more expensive... It's ok but not great, it all depends on how much you are willing to spend... Are you looking at an Ixus or a PowerShot? PowerShot would be the better choice if you want best quality and one with a Digic III chip is a better choice than a Digic II chip... It's the next generation... The more expensive ones have IS... Image Stabilization, that helps make sharp shots

You might as well open the owner's manual for yourself. To get the best out of your camera, you need to know what the settings are, how they are accessed, and how they affect your pictures.

What is the best kind of digital camera to buy?

Where is the best place to buy a digital the digital camera?

Answer
If you have to ask this question (not being snotty) buy something simple and not too expensive.

If you only have the money to buy one and you're mostly interested in recording family or places you go, then buy something smallish that you can stick in your purse or a pocket (preferably in a case).

I'd recommend one of the Canon SD-800 series, i.e. there are several SD 8?? which have image stablization (important), face recognition and good pixel count. Shoots fine pictures, using either the LCD screen or an optical finder. You probably want at least the 7.1 megapixel one. These cameras are about the size of a pack of cigarettes.

There are other good equivalents by Fuji, Nikon, Panasonic, Olympus etc. You want one preferably that takes an SD card (higher end cameras will also use these or the CF card). Avoid the Xvid Cards. They're okay, but tend to be expensive since fewer cameras use them.

These cameras have relatively limited zoom ranges, usually 3-4 x optical. Digital zoom is unimportant and is not a factor - no matter what the sales people tell you.

You might be inclined to look at a larger camera with a bigger zoom range. Canons, Panasonics and others have big zoom ranges of 12-16x. But the cameras are larger and you want to be sure you take the camera with you and don't leave it behind because it's too big, etc.

All of these cameras are capable of makng large enlargements, depending on the photographer not shaking, etc.

Some people prefer a camera that takes AA batteries. Others don't. Higher end cameras pretty much have to use Lithium-Ion batteries and they're not cheap.

Sources. Costco. Amazon, BHphoto or Adorama are all companies that do well in my book.
