Olympus C-700uz or C-2100uz.

Both r 2.1MP DC with all the maunal controls u need, take good day and nite pix and have big big 10x (380mm) optical zoom lens.

Sells for abt $900.

The diffs betwn the 2 are C-2100uz is bigger, but has a Image Stabilized (IS) lens.

Or the Canon Pro 90 IS, 2.6MP, also 10x IS optical zoom lens. Sells for abt $1.2K ~ $1.6K...sorrie, lost track of price liao.

Or Sony F707, 5MP, 5x optical zoom. Abt $1.6. ~ 1.7K.

Or Fujifilm FinePix 6900z, 3.3MP (interpolates to 6MP), 6x optical zoom. Abt $1.3K ~ $1.4K

Erm...I think it's the C-700uz that has the noise prob...not C-2100uz; but with a firmeware upgrade the noise prob is much improved.

The C-2100uz and C-700uz abt the same price now.

If you really want to learn photography choose C-2100UZ.

You need to buy an extra adapter which cost about $30 to attach lens. Your camera will looks bulky after attached.

And the starlight effect of C-2100UZ is better than the C-700.

I have both 2100 and 700 (not mine) with me sometime, so can compare.....

yup, the green T-shirt guy is me, nose big like a pig

I use ISO 100 for all the shoots, that's why no noise.

I think all selling in the shop now are latest firmware, no need to upgrade.
