Hi all, sorry for the OT, but as many people here have more knowledge
then me on this topic I'll just ask.
I'm about to by a digital camara and I was looking at a Panasonic Lumix
with 5MP and 6x optical zoom.
I tend to see the 6x zoom more interesting then having 7 or more MP, but
I'd like to know if I should go for more MP or stay with the good zoom.
Once againg, sorry for the OT.
I have two digital cameras.
One dSLR (Pentax) which was my first. I got the Pentax because I had
Pentax SLR lenses that worked with the dSLR. Saved money at the start.
Purchased a point and shoot for those times that we just want a picture.
Both use SD cards and I can swap cards between the cameras.
I prefer optical zoom and was one of the things I was looking for.
Both camera's plug and work in Linux with no problems though I use the
SD cards more than plugging the camera into the computer.
One feature that I must have on any camera is a view finder. I hate
having the display on in dark locations and sun light can make and LCD
display impossible to see to take pictures. This is a very big
complaint around work with the point and shoot cameras.
One other feature that I would have liked on my point and shoot is to be
water resistant but at the time, I didn't have the extra money. These
resist dust and dirt a lot more than normal point and shoot cameras.
