Right, have been thinking of upgrading the ould digital camera. Reasons are:
1. Want to get one I can use with an underwater housing - heading to the Red Sea in the summer
2. Want on that moseys a bit quicker - the times between taking photos with the current one are too long, expecially if using the flash.
3. Want to get something a bit more compact, easier to carry about.
At the moment I am using a Sony DSC-P52 and am happy with the pictures themselves but the unit is a bit too big to carry about and the shutter times are slow.
Have had a look about and narrowed it to the following:
Canon PowerShot S70
Fujifilm FinePix F810 Zoom
Olympus Stylus 500 Digital
Olympus C-7000 Zoom
Sony DSC-P200
See here
Think housings are available for most of them, will obviously double check before buying. If there is not one for the P200 then there is one for the P150. But would really prefer the 200 for the larger screen.
What I was wondering was has anybody used any of these cameras or has anybody any recomendations???
I know this is in the sony forum and I guess that's because I am leaning towards the sony. Just wondering if anybody can throw a yay or nay into the dilema!!
Cheers!
