Title: Which camera should I get?
Post by: KillaMarci on August 11, 2008, 09:34:23 AM

Hey guys

I'm planning to buy a little digicam , just to make some pic's on special event's etc.  Everytime I go on a classtrip or something like that , everyone has a camera to picture the memories , except me

I've never had a camera so I don't really know what to buy.. Don't want to waste that much money on it though.

I found one on ebay.

http://cgi.ebay.de/EASYPIX-S318-PANTHER-Di...1QQcmdZViewItem (http://cgi.ebay.de/EASYPIX-S318-PANTHER-Digicam-Camcorder-TV-OUT-8xZOOM_W0QQitemZ110276725429QQihZ001QQcategoryZ3327QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem)

It's kinda weird. It has 12MP and 8x Zoom for 40€...

http://cgi.ebay.de/Canon-Digital-Ixus-80-D...1QQcmdZViewItem (http://cgi.ebay.de/Canon-Digital-Ixus-80-Digicam-8-0-MPix-Silber-Ixus-70_W0QQitemZ130243981674QQihZ003QQcategoryZ3327QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem)

This one has 8MP and 4x Zoom for 200€

And I'm like WTF?!  The Canon one is worse and more expensive than the other one? What's the difference? Is it just because of the name "Canon"?

Hopefully some more experienced guys can help me out


Thanks in advance

Get a Sony HDR-SR12E, awesome video and photo camera combined.
