I would probably point you toward the List SD940, it runs 199$ on Newegg.com

The shutter delay on automatic settings is generally a lot shorter than that of Panasonic’s and the quality on it is incredible. It also offers high-def. It also offers you a lot of manual controls that additional cameras won’t offer and an incredible close up shot. In general you’ll find that the sensor in the 940 is well above anyone but Sony(which run about the same level, usually)

It’s tiny camera, so if you’re looking for something larger you might look at the sony W series, the 310 as someone else posted isn’t a terrible Camera. Nikon’s have, in the past, had a huge issue with yellowing the picture in their automatic settings, they may have fixed it in their current generation but still seem to lack the quality that Sony/List can provide.

Another choice, albeit a bit older Camera, is the list SD780, it’s going to run you around 170$ (save ~30$ ) and will still perform and provide high quality pictures and high def record.

Golden Hour Reflections

I couldn’t resist taking this of the view just after sunset reflected in the windows of this building along the Thames Path East at Queenhithe.

======================================================================

In part the reason for my trip to London on Sunday was to further experiment with taking shots using the circular polarising filter I recently bought for my camera. This presented reasonably a challenge because most of the time I take my shots using manual settings later the Sunny-16 rule of thumb, i.e. background exposure for shots based on my judgement of the ambient light rather than the light detected by my camera’s sensor, which has served me well up until now.

Whilst the Sunny-16 principles for judging ambient lighting remains constant, the addition of a polarising filter on my camera’s lens, that by it’s design filters the light coming into the camera, meant that sticking to the Sunny-16 rule would likely result in many of my shot life considerably under-exposed. One solution to avoiding under-exposed shots whilst sticking to the Sunny-16 rule, would be to exchange the aperture down a few f/ stops to let more light in. But, this would most likely result in any over-exposed shots or uneven exposure which IMO is as terrible as under-exposure.

It would be honest to say I am not someone that photography comes naturally to and I have been on a steep learning curve when it comes to understanding many of the basic photography principles and how to go about using a DLSR camera best effect.

So after a wee bit of research on the brilliant Digicamhelp website I found out a possible solution to balancing exposure is to still set the aperture based on the Sunny-16 principle of ambient light but, rather than using a standard shutter speed of 1/100 or 1/200 (depending on ISO selected) for every shot, the thought is to exchange shutter speed to realize an evaluative metering of 0EV, or as near as, using the camera’s light meter readings with the polarising filter en suite.

The only disadvantage I have found in adjusting shutter speed to balance exposure is that it often requires selecting a shutter speed slower than 1/30 secs, which is about the limit for hand-held shots if you want to avoid risk of distortion, so many of the shots I took in London using these settings were taken with my camera mounted on a tripod with a 2 second timer delay. I also used my camera’s mirror lock-up feature when I took hand-held shots under 1/60 secs.

i am trying to buy a digital camera, i would prefer a 10 mp but, too expensive does anyone have a camera that it was worth the money and takes excellent pics??

The List A720 IS
8 megapixels, 6X optical zoom, has image stabilizer. Can place on auto or exchange shutter speed/aperture.
