Fattwins 0 Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 and why keep 2 cameras? Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 Japans bad loan cycle is done I hope. That forced about 0 banks to become 3 banks. The non prime loans that triggered this banking problem is not as much of an issue in Japan. The no prime banks here are well known and I dont think people are hedging their houses going to the dodgy lenders like the Americans did. Link to post Share on other sites

thursday 1 Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 BP, good stuff. So you'll get your camera after Christmas. Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 BP, here's my prediction. Once you get your D300, you won't even look at your D70 again. Link to post Share on other sites
bushpig 0 Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 I'm not keeping it for me to use though, so that doesn't matter. I'm keeping it for bpg to use when out taking pics. Now, she happily comes out to wander around with me, and she is interested in photography a bit too, so I figure she can use it. It's not worth a lot now anyway. Link to post Share on other sites

SerreChe 2 Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 Question for the photo buffs: 7x optical w/ 8.1 mpix http://www.casio.com/products/Cameras/Exilim_Hi-Zoom/EX-V8SR/ or 3x optical w/ 12.1 mpix http://www.casio.com/products/Cameras/Exilim_Zoom/EX-Z1200BK/ I am thinking 7x w/ 8.1 .

Kumapix 0 Posted September 20, 2007 Author Share Posted September 20, 2007 without even looking at the cameras...don't get anything over 8mpix for a point & shoot. also optical zooms suck Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 depends if you do mega blowups on print, otherwise 8mpix should be plenty. And 7x optical is very useful. Mind you, the Z1200 looks better. Link to post Share on other sites
Kumapix 0 Posted September 20, 2007 Author Share Posted September 20, 2007 the size of the sensor for an 6mpx,8mpx, 12 mpx is the same. they are just cramming more pixels onto a small sensor which = more noise. optical zoom just blows up the existing pixels, it doesn't do any more zooming Link to post Share on other sites
SerreChe 2 Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 Thanks guys. Seen some reviews of the V8, seems it has some image quality issues... Hmmm, pondering. Link to post Share on other sites
SerreChe 2 Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 Kuma, you mean the digital zoom, not the optical zoom right? Link to post Share on other sites
