Hi,

I have been looking at the Olympus C-220 ZOOM camera as an inexpensive
camera to take photos of the animals that come in to the animal rescue
sanctuary with a view to putting them on the website.

I would appreciate a few verdicts on this camera.

Hi,

I have been looking at the Fuji Finepix A330 and A210 cameras as an
inexpensive
camera to take general photos of the people and events. I am new to digital
cameras but not to photography.
I would appreciate any views on this camera, or suggestions on any other
camera. Price range £100 - £125 (Under$200)

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

pjt

In that price range? Buy a nice film camera like the Olympus Stylus
Epic.

Take a look at the reviews and sample images for those cameras.
Especially coming from a Leica and Nikon SLR background, you might not
be satisfied with the quality of low end digital in the price range you
mentioned, depending on your purposes.

Go to http://www.dcviews.com and click "CAMERAS", then click the model
you are interested in, then click "CAMERA SPECIFICATIONS, TIPS &
REVIEWS". This will give you the specs and links to professional reviews
of all digital camera models. Check out the sample pics from each camera
you are interested in and print them out.

Get back to us and let us know what you think.
