JamieP Posted February 26, 2007 Author Share Posted February 26, 2007 Oh, one thing it has to have is a decent shutter speed, trying to do action shots is a pita with the one i have now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul ashton Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Ask Gareth Eaves,he's got a thread on this page at the moment.'Testing out my new camera (56k beware!!) ( 1 2 t the moment,he might be able to help you'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toyotasuprauk Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Depends what you want etc but Fine s6500fd is good. Nikon D40 or Canon EOS 400d if you want to get a DSLR are excellentThe finepix F30 or F31 are really good too. You can get sample pics and reviews from them all at http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/forum.asp?forum=1034 go to the reviews section.

AshBhp Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Canon PowerShot G7 Digital Camera is a very nice camera. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colsoop Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 I have a fuji finepix 5600 it takes really good photos using different exposures and iso settings but it can also do point and shoot shots in auto mode when you just want a simple shot. The fuji series are good cameras and you can buy different lenses as well when you get more adventurous. See attached for a picture i took with my Fuji: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbeh Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 PowerShot G7 - I have the G6 and thats pretty cheap now, got load of features found on an SLR etc, but in compact camera form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garetheves Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 Ive just bought a Canon EOS 350D DSLR and am loving it. Its £400 at the moment with the standard lens. Like Paul said, have a look in multimedia at the pics i took with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does exacty what it says on the tin. What are the movies like on it. Looking into getting a new camera, but want something that does half decent movie clips. Obviously first and foremost it's a camera but I want something that will do decent clips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyW Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 This one any good? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290086363712&ssPageName=MERC_VI_RUPX_Pr4_PcY_BIN_Stores_IT&refitem=290086113312&itemcount=4&refwidgetloc=active_view_item&usedrule1=UpSell_LogicX&refwidgettype=cross_promot_widget I'm looking a buying one today. Any advice is welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henk Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 I can't send you movie clips right now as the only ones I have are of my God Daughter and they are NOT being transmitted publicly over the net. I'll take a few and send you a link no worries, gimme a couple of days (right now it dark and dingy outside which will not help) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want something that's better than my shitty phone. I currently have a Nikon Coolpix 3100, the films are alright but it doesn't do sound and you can only have a 30 second clip. Basically I want something with sound, longer clip and half decent quality. I am going to buy a proper digital video camera in the future for doing my longer stuff.
