Best Digital camera...

I agree I am looking at the EX-Z70 and the EX-S770. Both are 7.4mp and have a nice IS system which I think is needed in cameras that are that small.

i believe the z70 is 7.2 mp, no IS. well canon has the IS feature..i don't know what casio calls it...but i do think the s770 has some type of vibration reduction

i think from time to time , there is a new camera come out in the market and beat the previous so called "best camera" , why not make a vote, let's say "the best camera of the year 2006" and limited to the camera shipped from factory in year 2006. i think in this way we have better understanding and comments.

thanks

Eh, lets not try to bring up threads that are over a few months old...

I think the best camera of the year 2006 is Canon EOS 30D. Very good quality - SLR, good price (much lower than 5D), very good ergonomy, many good lens (to buy).

Important features in my opinion:
- spot metering
- very good AF
- large and light optical viewfinder (much better than 300D/400D)
- large buffer
- fast startup
- large LCD

It will be my next digital camera I think (now I have 300D).

the best camera must be the one that will fits you!

Sony Cybershot all the way, i have the touchscreen one, you can even draw on the screen, a bit pointless but for those that cant use photoshop etc. its great

anyone try the EOS-1D Mark III ? if so please tell me hhow you like it for the price, its almost 5k

I have an Olympus E-500 8.0 MP. Awesome camera, check it out:

I am searching digital camera, my budget is USD 250.00 and I need optical zoom at least 5x , 5 megapixel and above, good capture for fireworks.... any one can recommend ?

Sorry for my poor English.

for USD 250.00 you might be able to get a decent on in Wal*Mart for that kind of thing. There's Canon with 10-11 megapixels that cost around USD $250

Is there? where abouts?

My personal opinion is that for a person looking for a low priced digi with a great picture, and a lot of zoom, the Fuji Finepix family is the best route. I just bought a FinePix s5100 the other day.

Hello everyone! I'm just new here but wanted to join in your discussion. I'm a portrait artist and most of the artwork I create are based on photos. That's why a photograph is very important to me and my colleagues.

Here are some notes about the different camera you've mentioned:

KODAK-- It's a good one because anywhere they have online resource, tips and offers for their customers. The latest one was the camera casing which can help you change the look of your camera and hide the cracks or flaws in its body.

SONY -- I doubt about this camera. I've seen a news last time where all Sony cameras were brought back to the manufacturers due to some production faults.

FUJI -- This is what I have right now. Sleek and user-friendly.

One important consideration in choosing a camera is to make sure that they have features and tools which can help you achieve the photos you want.

HEY i have the 20D myslef, and the lens had a melting issue, the sensor rather, did you have the same issue? i sent it in to get it fixed, free but had to pay for shipping, i thought sony's had this sensor issue, ?

one more thing sorry, how much did you buy your 20D for?
