Thank you, Anson. So I can zoom with the extra zoom directly while taking the picture? @ Rashkae: it's not about "Spoonfeeding". I can actually eat without any extern help. But the decision for a good camera isn't that easy! I am looking for a camera that doesn't let me down after a couple...

...Doesn't anybody know the answer to my question? would be really grateful. :)

What do you think of that? Is it useable? I don't really get it how it work, isn't it then just digital zoom? Or: If I don't choose the highest solution, then I can zoom 5.5x? How does that affect the picture quality?

Hello! Thank you for all the hints. About the Lumix DMC-LX3EG: What's about the optical Zoom? have a look here: it's indicated that the optical zoom is 2.5, but there's something written about an "extra optical zoom". what's that?? Do you know any test or review of the camera?? I...

Hello! I’ve finally made the decision to NOT buy a DSLR and to go for a compact camera. That for just one reason: I think I’m not the person who is keen on carrying a big and heavy camera while travelling, and I think that I will use a camera that I can have with me all the time more often. I...

that seems to be the previous model of the fz50? Does anybody know when Panasonic will release new cameras or where I could get this information? Thank you

just a correction, the camera i'm talking about is the Fz50 and not the FX50. ;) and I'm still wondering when Panasonic will release new cameras?

Today I had a closer look at several Prosumer reviews and I think I like the Panasonic ones. Especially the FX50 catched my eye. I'm asking myself if there will soon be a newer camera from Panasonic that will be quite like this, as the fx50 is already quite old? Does anybody know that when...

Hello, I went to a shop today and I've seen there a special offer: (for sale) an Olympus E400 or E410 with two lenses: 15-55 and 55-200 for 650 $. What do you think of that? Which camera is better? the 400 or 410? and another question: I'm wondering, when I'm travelling will I...

Hello, I know I've got this other thread running but I decided to start a new one, as this is another topic. I'm looking for a new camera and in the beginning I was determined to buy a dSLR. But now I started to consider a Prosumer, too. My father "earns" a kind of points with can be used...

How do I see if the lenses I've got have this F-mount? :think:

Hello, I talked today with my dad and he thinks that I don't HAVE to stuck to Nikon, as his lenses are very old. I can't classify them. I found in a D40 booklet which lenses could be used, but I couldn't identify the lenses I've got. One of them I'm having right beside me, it's written on it...

about my budget: I COULD spend that much, but I'm very happy when it would be less. Like 1000 Dollar would be "enough", too. As I will travel later in India, I do need every Cent. So I'm looking for a camera that suits me, It doesn't need to be the best but a good one, so that I won't regret...

:D wow, thank you, already so many replies. @ Rashkae: haha, It was supposed to happen that I mix up the abbreviation. ;) I'm german speaking and in the english vocabulary not very good, so first I had to look up the word for this tipe of camera, and then obviously I still managed to mix it...

Hello everybody! I've always liked to fotograph and now the time has come to buy my own digital SLF. Actually, I'm not an expert at all - I used to fotograph with my fathers 25 years old Nikon and I just used it like it was, I never thought about what to look at when I buy my own camera...
