digital camera with 28mm focal length?
Hello!
I'm looking for a small digital camera, that would have the "equivalent 35mm focal length" starting below 30mm. The zoom would nice, but 100mm is sufficient... All cameras I can find have the range beginning at 36 or 38 millimeters. Can someone recommend a good model, that would still fit in the hand of a petite girl? Thanks! -mi |

The 35mm format zoom equivalent is 28 to 140 mm. Yes, indeed, these do have impressive lenses. But both are rather bulky (15.2 ounces for C-5060WZ) and don't match the second requirement -- fitting in the hand of a petite girl... :-) Don't we have anything else from the hundreds of brilliant engineers working for all these electronic companies? Thanks for the prompte response. Yours, -mi |

Try the Canon Powershot S70. It has a 28-100mm zoom (35mm-equivalent) and is
slightly smaller than the earlier S series http://consumer.usa.canon.com/ir/con...ode lid=10460 DC "Mikhail Teterin" wrote in message ... Hello!
