thaoriginalgangsta Posted March 3, 2007 Report Share Posted March 3, 2007 O.k so i want to get into photography but dont really have much of a clue as to what camera to buy and what features are esential and best? at the minuet i'v got a 'fujifilm finepix 2800' Which is allright but dosen't seem to be that good.Also could some one tell me what features actually are eg. manual controls? and optical compared to digital zoom?I have used the search but only found things that i still didn't understand clearly. Anything you might think would be help will be apreciated.CheersAdam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sjupe Posted March 4, 2007 Report Share Posted March 4, 2007 if your going with a digital camera , tou need to look out for ,- the pixels e.g 4.0-the X optical and digital zoom- Memory (although you can buy a bigger one seperate if needed)- The screen size.-video captureoptical zoom is beeter as it zooms in on the item without loosing the quality of the picture.if you want to take it up more professionally i would recommend a SLR camera.i hope i helped -Steve- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willh Posted March 5, 2007 Report Share Posted March 5, 2007 You'd probably be better off asking this on a camera forum or something.I haven't got a clue about cameras.Snappedy-snap! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearded Midget Posted March 6, 2007 Report Share Posted March 6, 2007 the most simple way of making sure of getting a good camera is simple litrally.The more it costs the better it is is the est thing to look for just make sure it has 4million pixels or more or it wont be a lot of cop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zoonick Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 i've got a 'panasonic lumix DMC-TZ1` and me and mates have done a few videos with it. it's got 10* optical zoom and it's 5megapixel. definatly worth a look at. i bought it for £150 off www.purelygadgets.com this is compared to £300 in the shops. it's an amazing camera.
