Cameras - samass - 28-11-2012
Ok so my sister wants a new digi camera for Christmas. Needs to be better than het 8mpx phone, and not cost a penny more than 100 quid. I know nearly nothing about what's out there at the mo, so what do you guys recommend?

RE: Cameras - Eeyore - 28-11-2012
and play.com are usually very good for anything and everything! http://www.play.com/Electronics/Electronics/-/3144/2411/3-/Refine.html?ob=3&cpage=20 that page should be near to £100
RE: Cameras - samass - 28-11-2012
Cully, you really wouldn't me to... Trust.
ok guys, I more meant brands/models etc...what's good, and what's shit?
RE: Cameras - Pompey306mark - 28-11-2012
Should have bid on my 12mp canon just sold on eBay for £32. Was not even that old.
But eBay, Argos any of those places will be good.
Can't really go wrong with any branded camera, canon, Nikon, Samsung, Sony.
RE: Cameras - Curt - 28-11-2012
Panasonic Lumix range is a good start, or Nikon. Just a compact you're after? As you may be able to pick up a bridge for that money, although that depends how interested in photography she is or if it's purely point-and-shoot.
RE: Cameras - samass - 28-11-2012
Bridge... They those compacts that you can change the lenses on? She was interested in one of those, but I figured you'd be right at the bottom of the price range with that...
don't think she's big into pg, so a compact would do the job.
Mines a lumix, few years old but pretty good. Might see what's what with those these days.
cheers guys
RE: Cameras - Curt - 28-11-2012
Nah, bridge is like a halfway between a compact and a dSLR, so smaller/simpler but still with some settings to tweek around with. Also called super zooms.
I've got a Lumix bridge, which has been mostly claimed by mother these days. But it is still brilliant, takes great photos and I kept it a more portable option to my dSLR. Not that I ever see it nowadays
Edit: Matt's got the next one on from mine too actually
RE: Cameras - samass - 28-11-2012
