looking to buy a new camera,need advice

Post by chester »

hi guys,

im looking to buy a digital camera, i was thinkin in the 5MP or higher range
something that if i run out of batteries in a different country , ill have battery access.
i dont have a clue about the memory card brands and if they are universal
though i think the higher the MP the fewer pictures the memory stick saves.

i was thinkin about buying a canon, in the 5MP range ,

You cannot go wrong with Canon, IMO. Good choice!
When they kick at your front door, how you gonna come? With your hands at your head, or the trigger of your gun?

I recently bought a Casio QX-40. Only $299 for 4 megapixels and 3x zoom. Very high quality camera. Love it.
I'm sorry, but I'm unable to comply.

Definitely stick with Canon. Any of the powershots are great cameras http://www.powershot.com

When buying memory, just make sure it is Compact Flash, any brand will be fine. And with 5MP you should look into 256MB+ cards.
