Thinking of a new camera
I'm thinking of heading overseas in a couple of months. Before I go I want to get a new camera. I am hopeful that if I get something good now that it will last me for several years to come. At the moment I am in the early stages of research. I am looking for a compact camera at least 4MP with at least 3* optical zoom. My price range is up to about Aus$650 around US$450. Although I would like to spend a bit less ideally.
It seems to me that Sony are producing good cameras in this segment at the moment. At the moment I am tending towards a Sony DSC W5 or a
Sony DSC-S90. My major concern is that there seem to be a few stories of poor quality control with current Sony's. Does anybody have any personal stories?
I'm not after a huge number of trick manual options but am happy to learn how to extract a fair bit from a camera so some manual options are preferred. Does anybody have any tips for a relative photography noob?
