    Need HELP on Panasonic FX1

    I Agree it's a close fight, but 3700 won me over. Was deciding between FX1 and 3700 at the IT show. For freebies wise, FX1 looks more attractively on the surface, but not really so. With 2x32 + 64Mb cards, the movies' length are really limited to the card size. Dun really like bits and pieces...

    camera with > 3x zoom & slim ?

    Hvn't really taken a lot of night shots. But from the few taken with free hand, the pictures come out rather blur. Think will need some kind of support e.g tripod, stable surface. Maybe I hvn't learn to make full use of the camera settings and scene modes to take better night photos. Will be...

    Problem with Coolpix 3700 battery door?

    Face the front of the camera, and close the battery door with and without the battery inside. Do you notice that with the batt inside, there's a small gap between the batt door and the camera body, as compared to that without the batt?

    Problem with Coolpix 3700 battery door?

    Went back to the shop to verify the defect. To my dismay, the Coolpix 3700 cameras that I came across (4, including mine) all have this defect. The battery is jutting out a bit, so the door cannot close properly. In addition, one side of the LCD screen is depressed into the screen panel, such...

    I think the 6MP is interpolated, not true 6MP. Anyone concur?

    camera with > 3x zoom & slim ?

    I just bought the Coolpix 3700. Small size and high LCD definition. Good for beginners who doesn't require much manual settings. Mpenza: where can you get the original battery for $35? The sales ppl told me that it costs $70+ for original, so i dint buy it :(

    Problem with Coolpix 3700 battery door?

    Hi all.. Just bought the camera from AP 2 days ago at the IT show. Went home and discover that the battery door wouldn't close properly. Yes, the door can click on, but looks like being forced and gonna "snap open" anytime.. Wonder has anyone met such a problem before? Or any other issues...

    Finepix F700

    I went back to the IT show again to have a closer look. The image is rather sharp at highest ISO 1600. I'm impressed :).. Maybe my friend was comparing the high ISO values to the normal CCD of other brands.. Besides the 128MB card and batt, they are also putting in an additional docker. So is...

    Finepix F700

    I just went to the IT show. f700 at $799 with 128MB card and another free batt. Seems like a good deal. However, my friend was complaining abt the high ISO value. Any image with ISO above ISO 200 will be kinda noisy and grainy. This will render the AP and SP rather unuseful ya..

    Hi all, Canon is coming up with this model to replace A70. What do you guys think of this new baby? According to the specs and news at dpreview, seems like a hybrid between A80 and A70.

    Digicams with video rec?

    Are you talking about movie clips? Canon also has this 30 secs limit on its movies, which I wonder why too :-|.. Think Nikon Coolpix 3700 has quite good movie mode. As stated on its specs, 640 x 480, 30 fps, up to 60 sec 640 x 480, 15 fps, unlimited * 320 x 240, 30 fps, unlimited * 320...
