Pros: economy of digital with images = to film Cons: no through the lens viewing at eye piece
After being a somewhat avid photographer and believing that my Minolta 7000i was still adequate, I must admit I was wrong. My son in Alaska sent me this camera as a belated Father's Day gift. Am I pleased, ***** and more so!
First surprise THE...

Pros: Excellent image quality Cons: Too big in size, awkward swivel lens
No doubt, this is one of the best consumer digital cameras that are out there. The camera features both auto and manual modes. I have mostly used the auto function-- and sure it takes exceptionally sharp pictures in different light conditions. I have...

Pros: Superb image quality, lots of options, fast download speeds to a PC, AUTO mode is as easy to use as a regular camera, and much more... Cons: Relatively weak built-in flash, carrying case not included
My previous digital camera was a refurbished Sony DSC-F1, which has served me very well for more than two years. I loved it for its small size and ease of use. However, its maximum resolution is 640x480...inadequate compared to today's standard. I needed...

Pros: Resolution, Magnesium Body, USB Interface Cons: Small Zoom, Poor Light Collection, Short Battery Life, Type 1 CF Slot
I bought this product to replace my older Nikon camera that decided to no longer accept film. I wanted a camera that could come as close as possible to matching the resolution of 35mm film and the Nikon 990 does a good job. However I DO have a few...

Pros: Cons:
My needs in a digital camera were simple, or so I thought. I take a lot of photos, 10-15 or more rolls at a time, which can get very expensive when you take into account the cost of film, developing and printing. It is also time consuming, as I scan the...

Pros: image quality, features Cons: size
Upon realizing that the only reason I got film developed was in order to scan the prints into the computer, I realized it was time to get a Digital Camera. Most important to me in my decision was the quality of the images that could be captured by the...
