Where can I get the best prize for this model ? anyone can tell which super zoom camera is the best ?

Thanks
 

Hi, if not in the hurry to get a DC....wait for the Z3 by minolta.. actually i thought of gettin the S1 IS too...lucky i dint..cos the focusin is very slow...by the time it get focused..u lost ur target.. Wait for the Z3..good features..movie zoom too,I.S, 4mega pix,2fps, lighter... well think worth the wait...
 

Maybe its my eyes or what. But when my friend let me see pictures taken with the FZ10 I notice a little purple fringing on the edges of the subject. Not so prominent when zoom's is juz 1 to 5x but extremely noticeable when its maxed all the way.

I'm starting to wonder if such a problem is exclusive to all super zoom prosumer cams (which includes the S1 IS).

But this is juz a thought, using the Panasonic FZ10 as an example. U might want to check out photos taken under strong light, maxed zoom by other S1 IS users since I do not have any experience with it.

I did some test shots with my S1 regarding the concern for purple fringe.
Guess what ?? to my surprise it handle it pretty well. :)
Wonderful camera.
