Digital Cameras Which Report
I hate to buy a Digital Camera now – What’s ahead this year?
I have a Minolta Maxxum 7000 SLR that I’ve had since they first came out and I love it. Most of the time when people show me the “great” pix their new digital took I think they are terrible! I do need to learn digital though. Help! -. I use the 70-210mm lens alot, so I need more than 3X optical, I take pix of dogs, horses and my son, so I need quick focusing, as little shuter lag as possible, and short time between shots to capture the right expression when I see it. Image stabilization is a must! I want SHARP clear pictures. I want to see every whisker on that dog! I thought about a Canon S3 IS, but then I thought maybe I should just get an entry level digital SLR (hope to use the Maxxum lenses I’ve got) until I read an article about the dust on the sensors. Animals and kids love dust – my camera would be full of dust. I saw CES report – Kodak 10MP for $250, not right camera for me, but it seems like digital is getting better for less. So – now or later? Which camera to learn with?
Because you’re already using an SLR, moving to a digital point and shooter is sure to be a big let down. And don’t let the dust thing get you off track. I’ve had a Canon Rebel 300D for almost 2 years now. It’s been to numerous horse shows, inside and out; dusty arenas; the beach; the bush. You name it, we’ve been there with our Rebel and it’s still banging out great shots.
You’ve got a few choices as far as moving to digital is concerned:
1. a P shooter is going to leave you wanting more
2. trade your Minolta on a new DSLR
3. keep the Minolta going and get a new DSLR
Personally, I’d go for #3. I still use a lot of film even though we own a DSLR and a P shooter. I still enjoy the film and it has lots of life left in it yet.
As far as brand, I was a die hard Minolta fan, but … as far as the DSLR market is concerned Canon owns it. Sony (aka Minolta) is barely a blip on the radar screen along with Nikon. There are a lot of reasons to go Canon, but market ownership and dominance means quality at lower prices, and Canon is the company driving the price point down on DSLR’s.
