In Reply to: Digital camera sugestions...and how to properly photoshoot your system ? posted by AdamC on June 28, 2004 at 13:28:03:
I own a 1.3 megapixel Vivitar. It's large and uses 4 AA batteries, definitely not state of the art. But - the lens is excellent with very low distortion and large glass area, the autofocus works vary well (it has no zoom) and the light metering is just about optimal.
I recently bought el-cheapo 3.3 megapixel camera that's small and light, but when it comes to quality of picture for posting on the web, I find that the higher resolution buys me nothing, since I always reduce the size of the image files to acceptable levels, and that would require reducing the resolution anyway.
I end up going back to the old trusty Vivitar...
Of course, if I'd paid $400 for the new camera then probably it would have benn closer in optical quality to the Vivitar. But I recall you saying a "cheap camera"...
So my advice is to look for the features you need, not just the megapixel or bells and whistles that you don't.
