new camera ideas
hi there im in the markter looking for a new camera. I dont want a slr one. I want a point a shoot and something that is small and light. I quite like the look and feel of the nikon coolpix p2 and have seen a panasonic lmz2 or something. I want something with a burst mode in it too. I wanna spend around 500 aus for one.

How much zoom are you after? I.e., what sort of pictures are you looking to get? Motorsport stuff, or general?

I think your best bet would be to get a camera buyer magazine so you can review the choices in your price range and compare features. Once you have settled on 2 or 3 of interest, come back on 10-10ths and ask for opinions on those selected, I'm sure everyone will be happy to pass on any knowledge or experience they have had with them.
Good luck, happy hunting!! |

Or a S5500 or whatever version they're on now.

I've got an S7000 and I love it. Does everything I need and does it sensibly. In addition to which, my wife can use it too.
