I want to compare a few cameras. Does anyone know where I can look to get user reviews and shit like that?
I'm ordering online, so I cant play with them, but I want to find out as much as possible about them first.

theres a thread around here somewhere about this. but you can try cnet.com i think they're the best place to compare electronics
epinions.com is very good as well

What camera did you buy? Weren't you the one who bought the new one awhile back?
- Keyser Soze - 10-19-2002
i bought a Fuji FinePix 2800Z
6x optical zoom, 2.1 megapixels
its a nice camera, i'm glad i bought it, many of the recent shots on <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.projectpseudo.com">http://www.projectpseudo.com</a><!-- m --> were taken with it (cept the recent brookwood pics)

I usually read through the reviews and user-reviews on Amazon

I usually find great, deatiled reviews here.

An excellent resource >DP Review

I think I've decided on a camera.
The Fuji FinePix S602. It's around $600.
Anyone else have any experience with this camera? All of the reviews say its a power and storage hog. But is that fairly normal with a camera? I know the little one's go forever, but is it normal for a better camera to do that?

I paid 500 for the Olympus c-3020, at Best Buy, back in May. I am very happy with it. Got a great review as well.

Not really...but power is something you can compensate for with a spare set of batteries, or if your camera has a port, a larger external power pack. A friend of mine has the Fuji digital SLR, and loves it. My wife has an olympus 4 megapixel, and her shots look great-almost as good as my 35mm scans from negatives (which top out at around 5 megapixels).
Let me know how you like it, as I am thinking of getting that Fuji digital SLR. It uses the same Nikkor lenses my 35mm system uses, and since I've invested a lot of cash on those, it's an important factor in my decision. And it's several hundred dollars cheaper than the Nikon digital.

- drusilla - 10-20-2002
sharp mini dv
this is the one that i have. i really like it, it's so simple to use, but it needs a flash bigtime.

olympuses suck because they take regular batteries.. go with a sony.. i went with the dsc-s75.. it is really good..

$600 !!! Holy Hell!
What does $100 get you? Pencil & paper?
- LyricalGomez - 10-21-2002

When I was looking into buying, I went to a Canadian site called megapixel.net and was pretty impressed with the site. I'm pretty sure it's Canadian, anyhow, it had French and English sections.

I'm thinking of buying a new digital camera with my Christmas money. This is the one I'm looking at:
Olympus Camedia
Any input?
