Best camera for ~ £150?
Hi all,
I'm looking at buying a new digital camera. I don't know too much about them, so I'm looking for a little advice, if possible. Basically, my budget is around the £150 mark, which isn't much I know, but at the same time, I don't want to pick up a piece of rubbish - so, if anyone has any thoughts on the bext camera I could pick up for around that price, I'd appreciate the help. The camera will go everywhere with me, so it needs to be a compact digital (not something with a lens sticking out the front), preferably with a rechargeable battery pack. Ability to change settings (ISO speeds etc, I know my old cam limited me in what I could change). Any help appreciated. TIA, DSt. |

BugBear Samsung NV10.....far better than anything Canon or Fuji or Sony have on offer. Full control. |

It's too much money, and doesn't have aperture and shutter speed priority modes http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/spec...msung_nv10.asp Nice enough camera, and all, but doesn't appear to fit the OP's request BugBear |

For one, the P850 is now about $225 (refubr) - that should be fairly close to your limit. 12x lens, Image Stabilization, saves jpeg, raw, tiff; 5mp. I'm quite impressed with the one I got before Christmas. |

Have a look at the fuji F30 here
http://www.currys.co.uk/martprd/stor...SessionID=@@@@ 0216721089.1172343177@@@@&BV_EngineID=ccdfaddkfemj ejkcflgceggdhhmdgmj.0 &page=Product&fm=9&sm=0&tm=0&sku=907206&category_o id=-30997 If you shop around you may get a better price. I would stay away from the Kodak though as it is quite chunky compared to this. |
