Shopping for a new digital camera – “minimum shutter speed”?
I’m looking at these two digital cameras:
1. http://shopping.yahoo.com/p:Fujifilm%20FinePix%20S5200%20Digital%20Camera:1992943172:page=details;_ylt=AuGKlXO0UOwIsXcY4RI8SxLnSHAD;_ylu=X3oDMTA5ZW01N2htBHNlYwNiZ3NpYg– a nice model from two years ago, to be bought used from someone I know, or
2. http://shopping.yahoo.com/p:Fujifilm%20FinePix%20S700%20Digital%20Camera:1994756351:page=details which looks like the new approximate equivalent currently on the market, for close to the same price
There are a few differences between the two, obvious ones like the 7.1 megapixels on the newer model, and some differences that I don’t understand because I don’t know absolutely everything about digital camera specs. Specifically I’m wondering about the “minimum focusing range” and “minimum shutter speed”; there’s quite a difference between the two models, it seems? Can anyone help enlighten me on what these specs mean and what a desirable range is for these numbers?
Go for the newer camera, which will come with a warranty.
As for the spec differences, the minimum shutter speed is how long the shutter will stay open (15 secs on the old one; 4 secs on new one), typically for use in dim light. For 99.9% of people out there, such slow speeds are never used. Realistically, most people can’t get good photos below 1/30 of a second shutter speed, so 4 seconds is going to be pretty blurry, unless you use a tripod.
I’m figuring you don’t do a lot of dim light/night shooting on tripods, so the minimum shutter speed difference is going to be meaningless for your purposes.
Likewise, the minimum shooting distance won’t be a big deal, as most photos are taken from distances more than 2 or 3 feet away.
Bottom line: go for a brand-new model with a warranty, just in case anything goes wrong. You can’t get that with a used camera from a friend. And your friend is probably overcharging you, to boot.
