I had to buy a digiCam.

Friends next month I am planning to buy a Graphic Card and a Digital Camera. Graphic card is done on HD4850 but for digicam I am not sure which one to buy.

My budget for camera is 15000. Performance is more important to me and then comes the zooming.

So guys please suggest me a model.

I

around 15k cannon powershot 720 IS is good model ...

*www.dpreview.com/reviews/canona720is/page12.asp

AFAIK picture quality is better than competing sony and nikon models ....look around for more reviews thats the only and best way to choose one camera ...also look for user comments too they are often very helpful and could sometime relate to the issue u are looking for !

also i will suggest u to go through that website(*www.dpreview.com/) it will give u a wealth of information ...which i feel is necessary when u are buying 15k camera

Thanks I will go through that website. Any more websites relating that.

Now guys which one to go.

are u going to buy it from compare india ?

i suggest u check out the price where u are actually buying it from ..if its going to be canon showroom call them up and ask for the prices ..call sony and nikon showroom as well and ask for the prices ...

if u are buying for some other local dealer pay him a visit and ask what all models are available and at what prices.in local dealers case always look if he is actally willing to give u warranty.

if u are buying it from delhi,i suggest call their showroom and ask for quotes ...showroom people are very helpfull and always give u good response.then get back with prices..then we can suggest better.

personally i don't think compareindia is as credible as lynx or itwares ..but i may be wrong.

Canon PowerShot A720IS is available at 10k ..now thats cheap ...u can look for better models since ur budget is 15k ...but it will help really if we really know the prices i mean showroom prices or the prices u are actually buying!

Get Canon SX 100 IS
I am a proud owner of it.

A

anyhow canon cameras are better featured in the price.
Ans as ingame2 said check locally, compareindia just gives you an overview and prices can vary upto 1-2K in worst situations.

Thanks guys,
And imgame2 for your detailed advice. It will be good to check the price locally and In delhi. As I can get it cheaper there probably.

Ya I am also very much attracted towards it. Its the best performer under 15000 but can you comment on its build quality as its build quality is not reviewed good.

Is it so. I thought comapreindia price would be the common price.

Why dont you get a Nikon D40x for 16.5-17k.

The 1.5-2k spent more will be justified.

@Toofan_nainital - The camera has no issue regarding build quality. It's rugged enough. It weights around 265gm, feels heavy & rock solid in hand. I's just that it won't come in your pocket as it's quite a little monster.

Also another thing, if you plan to shoot photos of your friends with you also in the frame & camera in your other hand, then the operation becomes difficult & the results will be hazy. I have tried it out.

BTW I am going to write a review on this camera, but it will take time as my exams are getting near. The review will be up somewhere around 15th October or so.

Also if you want to see some test shots then have a look here. But they are not the original size, they are resized to 1600*1200.

I strongly recommend you this camera, as it's performance is simply awesome.

I dnno much about cameras...but Nikon D40x beats SX 100 IS hands down.

For budget, samsung one's are good.

SOn'y cybershot's are really good.

And u dun need more than 8MP,no use really.

from Where did you get these prices? I think at 16.5k its will be the best cam to buy. Is this cost included the cost of Lenses also as it is DSLR so it will require lenses.

@Cool G5: I will try to wail till then.
All the best for your exams. May you prepare only those questions which are set on question paper.

The street prices say its 17k......dunno about the lens but they wont cost much.

This camera is THE best (under 20k mark).

and you HAD to buy a Digicam.......so why are you posting now ??

i think India has not become so much mature in case of online shops yet ..they quote some outrageous prices and even customer are very reluctant to buy from them ...
hence i asked u very importantly from where u are going to buy?people can suggest u all sorts of things ..i could have suggested canon EOS 40D or even EOS 50D ...but does it help u ??

i m hoping that u will buy it from a authorized dealer and claim for a warranty if not these things could be bought at appropriate places with very cheap prices ...but i guess buying a 15k camera through such places is like a gamble !

*www.naaptol.com/buy-online/WO-best-shopping-deals-W1668O/cameras/digital_slr/nikon_d40x.html

in above @rediffshopping D40X costs 30k and @ futurebazzar it says 46.6k ...now i can't guess whats the correct street price out of the two ...can u ???
u can happily decide a camera now and when u go to buy it actually ..what if the authorise dealer quote price that is out of ur reach u will have to come back and decide again it will break ur heart....so why not do a little homework before buying it ??

i don't think calling in all the show rooms in delhi will cost u much ...heck even i can call and ask in delhi over the phone ...call rates being so cheap...all it might cost u may be 100 rupees or so ..but u will atleast know what u are dealing with.....

i hope u get my point.

@Kpower_mania thanks to you too for your suggestions.

nicon D40x is the best camera but its very very high priced and out of my budget

and also it will not be easy to use ,by other family members.

@imgame2
Yes these online prices are t confusing. And the street price funda is lot risky. I thought Nicon's price quoted by kpower_mainac authorised one. I will buy the selected cam form delhi as my younger brother lives there. He is an engineer in Moser Bare.
But I too will have to go there one day earlier to do the markert survey.
I am narrowing close on Canon's sx100IS as it will be in my budget. And if its cheaper the saved money can be used to buy a memory card of higher capacity.

And according to my ideals about life, buying without bill is something like buying a smuggled piece and I can't cheat my country for just few thousands. I willing to pay the tax to government.

And this time digit showed the camera shoot out but didnot included the sony's cameras in their shoot out. I can't understand the reason behind it. Also I am not seeing any ads from sony in digit magazine. Is this the reason?

yus thus, go for SX 100 IS

Supplies & Accessories

The Canon SX 100 IS supports SD and SDHC memory cards, so 8GB should be supported.

You get the following accessories with the camera :

# 16MB SD Memory Card :shock:

It's not a typo, it's MB what was Canon thinking. Cutting costs??

# Hand Strap

Let see!.

What will be the cost of memory card these days as it will seriously be required with camera. and which one to buy. SX100 IS seems to support a lot of them.

A

@ingame2, D40x and D40(around 25K) are two models, and D40x came almost around 32K (46.6 I think being real price, this is one of very old models from Nikon and has been discontinued as per my knowledge) has been replaced by D60 which is aroun 30-32K. And if you are thinking to spend 45K then Canon E450D kit.
And in 30K range if you do not want a SLR then there is Cannon Powershot G9

Canon A650 Powershot, Canon Ixux 850/860/870 and Sx 100 Powershot are good cameras, all being of different price and having different resolution, and all being very good. A650 is 12.1MPx camera

just for your info the highest rated camera has already got new model FZ18 has been long replaced by FZ50K, but even then if you get FZ18 its price would be sub 15K and its best camera and has best zoom, both the Panasonic cameras are sure very high rated, among people who like good zoom character and good features.

If you plan to take pics of chicks then make sure your camera has a good amount of optical zoom

Here Canon SX 100 IS rocks with it's 10x Optical zoom

so since u own this cam we can expect picks of chicks from u ...right ???

^^ Ha Ha

We(My friends & me) do had taken such pics, just for testing the zoom & nothing else. We deleted them, as we don't need them.

A

panasonic FZ50 is another of big zoom, but noone can beat zooming options in a SLR like EOS40D or 50D, nikon counterpart of them is D80

SLR will need extra zooming lenses to do it. Hence they had more superior zoom quality.

Is there only two choices to make SX100IS and A720IS.

Good Morning

I too was going to get the A720 IS at first, but then purchased SX100 IS which offers more optical zoom, better looker than A720 IS etc.

A720IS is rated much much higher then SX100IS everywhere. but sx100is has 10x zoom while A720is has 6x zoom. difference of 4x.............

What about the image quality of those two which one is better?

canon A720IS vs SX100 IS

These two camera use the same CCD sensor and internal computer (engine).
Their performance should be the same.
Their low light ability should be the same.

You may find that the lack of a viewfinder on the SX100IS will be a problem in bright sunlight.

If you use a 6X optical zoom camera for awhile, you will find that further zoom is seldom needed.

Your concern for low light and action performance bothers me.
If you have plans of sports photography under artificial lights, you will likely be disappointed with either camera.

Under those conditions, the cameras will have to use their highest ISO settings (1600) to get enough light. This will result in too much noise in the photo.
If ISO-1600 is not enough, the camera must lower the shutter speed; which will likely result in blurred photos or blurred action.

For action photos during daytime, both cameras will perform well.

------------

I would have to disagree. Even if the viewfinder is easier to see in bright sunlight, the one on the A720 IS is small (oddly, the viewfinder on the Canon A570 IS is bigger!) and does not have good sealing. How do I know? I bought the A720 IS, used it, and returned it. The main reason I returned it was because it had dust in the viewfinder. I found this to be a big problem in bright light when I used the viewfinder. Sadly, most of the people I know who have camera's with viewfinders have dust in them. Mine was brand new, and it had dust right out of the package.
Also, I was in situations when I couldn't zoom in far enough. Even at family gatherings, there were times when I wanted to take a picture of someone across the room, but I couldn't zoom in far enough.
I'm probably going for the SX100 IS now.

If you're really worried about not being able to see in bright light, get a camera with an EVF. Some people don't like them, but personally, I like them better than optical viewfinders.

the quote still doesn't still answer ..why is SX100IS better ?...some people say ...10x zoom is not required some say it is required ....but ultimately i think the basic quality of picture matters we won't be using zoom every time ??....people can have issue with dust on lens and all ..but i don't think thats a huge issue ...for some it may be important ..but for others its not ...

so whats the difference between them?...the quality of pictures between the two ??

picture quality is same (maybe slight difference), as the above quoted msg reasons somewhat.
the 9 point autofocus in the A720 is apparently not included in sx100is

i didnt use the "advanced"(forgot mode name) autofocus feature in my sony DSC P41, just used basic auto focus.

for me, Zoom is a big nessecity, as i shoot a lot from Car :))

, & take pics at my garden, birds (sometimes owls come

), squirrels

.... zoom is a must

thats cool ...but sometimes in some camera zooming after an extent might distort the picture quality i hope this is not the case with sx100is...

and u must have a nice collection of beautiful pictures ...do u upload them to some site or just keep it to urself ??

looking forward to review from Cool G5.....

price= $279

edit-
Memory Card Support
In addition to SD, SDHC and MMC memory cards, the PowerShot SX110 IS supports MMCplus and HC MMCplus card formats. It is supplied with a 32MB memory card.

Face Detection AF/AE/FE/WB and Face Select & Track
Canon’s Face Detection AF/AE/FE/WB system automatically detects up to nine faces within a frame before adjusting focus, exposure, flash and white balance to ensure optimal results. It is able to determine which faces are intended to be the subject, instantly reverting to the partnering 9-point AiAF system if no face is the primary subject. Face Select & Track allows the user to select a particular face to be the main subject of a photograph and track it, for the best possible results.

You guys have not considered the Nikon Coolpix P80,, its a great camera,, brought it for 22.95K from authorised nikon dealer with two years warranty.
Features:

18X optical zoom with vibration reduction
10.1 Megapixels
ISO 64-6400
Full auto to full manual control

*www.nikon.co.in/productitem.php?pid=1238-ef493c1f28

The price which i have paid is from the authorised dealer. If you are getting it from the grey market, im sure you'll get it for around 16-17K

Or, if you still prefer a canon, then check out the Canon S5 IS,,, still a good one..

Or a sony H50

I have considered the above three models, P80, S5 IS and H50,, finally decided on the nikon P80,,,

pros:
great optical zoom, vibration reduction is great,, ISO levels are large, and the option of full auto to full manual (you can control the exposure, the shutter speed, the ISO etc etc)

cons:
(other than this two cons, i find the nikon better than the rest)
compared to the Sony H50, the burst shooting mode can shoot only 13 images, while in sony H50, you can f**king shoot upto 100 images in the burst shooting mode
battery is nikon battery, while the canon is 4 AA batteries, which is great coz you can buy it from any department store,, - for AA batteries, i recommend Camelion Ni-MH AA rechargeable batteries, with 2500mAH,, comes at around 800 with the charger
and if you want to shoot at night

with absolutely no light (0 lumens), you can shoot with Sony H50 - gives a decent result

As for D-SLRs like, Nikon D series, D40, D40x, D50, D60 or Canon EOS series, they are
1. expensive
2. require lenses
3. careful handling is required, especially to keep it away from dust
4. but they give excellent pictures and you can shoot in RAW mode

the above, P80, S5 or H50 dont require you to buy any extra lenses, so its good if you want to invest once and dont want to invest on it again and again,, and believe me, the lenses are expesive

keeping it clean is very crucial and in dusty environment like india, that is tough

And with all the camera body (camera kit) and the lenses and flash and batteries, its very bulky to carry around

So, i would suggest you settle for a prosumer camera, all in one like the above, unless you want to turn pro one day and open a photo studio as a back up profession

my budget = $250-300

saw s5 is , but its $350.

I

@thanglian
people have budget here about 15k and they are not buying from grey market ....so i don't think its wise to go for that camera

@s18000 rpm ...

another new camera .......wait for its review to come out ...and go only if its better than sx100is

N

yea, budget is 15K

but, a friend reasoned with me saying that, if you are buying a nikon or canon or a sony, they are good companies with good products, so there is no much maintenance or repairing required as their products rarely break down,, so even a grey market buy dont make much difference as you dont require the warranty,, and even if you have a problem, the dealer from where you have brought it (say gaffar market in delhi), they will arrange to get it serviced at original nikon/sony/canon service centres through their arrangements,, so, its not so bad,,,
but, best is original with proper warranty, no tension!!

Ya too checked the SX110IS but there are no reviews out yet. This one has a wide angle also.

sx110is is an updated sx100is

has features that sx100is lacked

so i think it'll be a bit more comfortable than sx100is.

compare the features of sx110 & sx100 at cannon website [link]

Big NO to such thoughts, no authenticity of that.
My friend bought Canon G7 from US, hence no Indian warranty, got issues with the camera in 5-6 months some battery issue or something, he got it repaired on his own money, it was a minor issue hence had not to pay alot getting it repaired by its not always the same.

It supports .mov files for the video. Can anyone explain what is this and how it affect the quality?

Hi Everyone
I am interested in a digicam, budget 14k-16k
And SX110 IS seems the best bet.
Digicams I shortlisted were:
1. Sx100, sx110
2.s5 is (but its expensive)
3. Nikon P5100
4. Panasonic TZ5( Sx110 is better than this in my opinion.)

So i am in for sx110 IS
Only thing negative about sx110 is that it eats batteries, but i hope rechargebale batteries will do the job.

I called JJMehta(mumbai) today and he quoted 16k for sx110IS
He is giving some accessories and stuff included.

I am from Delhi, so is it OK to deal with JJMehta? will he replace the piece if i get a defective one? I have never bought anything online or Epayments stuffs. So plz tell me if its ok to deal a Digicam from JJM?

@ tofaan
The Ebay link u posted has a 1 year Dealers Warranty, while the one at JJM has 2 year Canon Warranty.

You may get it at the same rate or a bit cheaper from Delhi itself. Just do some searching and inform me also. My hands got tied due to the share market. Otherwise I would have bought the same by now.

There are some good quality batteries available which can increase the shots taken upto 450 shots.
Energizer lithium AA. Check for some other options also. you can go to trusted review website and there they mention those high efficiency batteries.

As now I had to hold, so I am thinking of SX10 IS. Its having 20x zoom and soem more advance technology but still not released in India.

Friends next month I am planning to buy a Graphic Card and a Digital Camera. Graphic card is done on HD4850 but for digicam I am not sure which one to buy.

My budget for camera is 15000. Performance is more important to me and then comes the zooming.

So guys please suggest me a model.

have u bought digicam....
which?

@Fahd.malik - Yes the Canon SX 110 IS is a good deal. JJ Mehta is a reputed shop, so I don't think there will be any problems.

@toofan_nainital - Are you banned for a few days buddy

I will be putting up my review of Canon SX 100 IS in coming 3-4 days, do check it out.

Hi everyone
Yesterday i got myself SX110 IS from Delhi itself.
The deal cost me 16450/- inc Vat
The Package includes:

1. Canon SX110 IS( and all box contents promised by Canon)
2. 4GB sandisk SDHC card
3. 2 NiMh 2500mha Batteries with charger
4. Canon Case.
5. LCD screen Protector
6. Got a TCL wireless Headphone Free through Scratch card. ( its MRP is 3050/-)

So all in all its a very good deal in my opinion.

I have not tested it fully and still learning its controls.
Here are some pics i took in macro mode.

Yep it's coming. The diwali festival meant the review did not get time to complete. :cry:

Sorry to keep you waiting, but I will do it in the coming two days.
Please bear with me.

Sorry for the in convenience.

+1 Canon S3IS

canon S3IS is an outdated product. S5IS is its advanced version and then SX 10 IS and SX 1 IS are the replacements of S5IS.

So guys, the review of Canon Sx 100 IS is up here : *www.thinkdigit.com/forum/showthread.php?t=101331

Do post your comments and queries if any in that thread. I would be glad to solve them.

Thanks for your detailed preview and the pics you provided. This is awesome. So guys buying Sx100IS and its new model sx110IS will always be a good decision to take. I too have make a decision of buying SX110 IS or SX 10 IS if its available in India.

^ You are welcome

Get the SX10 IS when it becomes available.

I see no reason why one should go for Canon SX110 IS over SX100 IS. It just has 9 MP sensor along with a 0.5inch bigger screen than SX100 IS. Rest it is identical to SX100 IS.
