If someone gives you money to buy a camera, say for $800, and you are just an average camera user (not a pro), no action shots, just want to get good quality, sharp pictures, what would you do? - buy a regular $200 cameras, and use it for a year (or two) and then keep buying a new one after 3000-5000 shots. You can get up to 4 brand new cameras @ $200 a piece. - or buy a more expensive camera to meet the budget, and hope and pray that it will last for years to come and many thousand pictures. Cameras go obsolete after 18 months. Yeah - so? That does not mean they stop working. If they still fullfill your needs, what's the problem? snip Quite. I have a Canon Powershot A70, 3.2 megapixels, and I still use it. Apart from a low pixel count, it's a great camera - good lens (possibly the most important component), great viewfinder, easy to use and the results are good. A more up-to-date camera isn't necesarily better, as I found out when I brought a Fuji S5600. |
