Best Digital Cameras For Quick Picture Taking With HD Quality?

Im getting rid of my kodak m381, It is a horrible camera with slow response timing, Im looking more towards a List, Fujifilm Type camera.

I want something that has excellent manual background capability
Excellent Quality Photos,
Quick Response Time

im willing to spend $ 200 max, Any suggestions?

Nope, not for that money. Compact “pocket toys”, all of them, have a long lag time. You do know “lag” time don’t you? That’s the time the camera needs to gather focus and lighting information so you can have a photo. Without it, you’d might as well not press the button.

That said, the only type of camera that meets your wishes are dslr cameras. Manual control,
brilliant technical quality and quick. dslr cameras start at about $ 500 and go up from there.

Spending $ 200?, you’d might as well keep what you have, there won’t be any difference.

You going to have to shell out a small more than that, but some of nikon’s coolpix lines have dual processors, like that dslr and you can even start taking pictures before the the OS boots, instant on….just like the dslr….

It might be around $ 2-300, but probably lacking in manual background in many areas where a dslr would be better..

What do you reckon? Answer below!

I want to find a digital camera that is relatively inexpensive under $ 150, that can take excellent night photos. I am going on vacation to Toronto and want to take city shots at night. Any suggestions would be helpful!! Thanks

No camera under 150 will take excellent night photos. Sorry to say even 1000 dollar cameras have a hard time. It’s not until the 3k range you get pro cameras that are excellent at low light.

if anything maybe a ancient or used model of the Fujifilm Finepix

You will have a hard time result a camera in that price range. The reason is because point and shoot’s use exceptionally small sensors and pick up a lot of noise at even the slightest bump in ISO.

The additional issue is the lack of manual control. Taking excellent night time photos require longer shutter speeds (sometimes minutes at a time depending on available light).

While $ 150 may not be enough, you don’t need to spend $ 1,000 any. I took lots of excellent night shots with my List XTi which you can buy for $ 500 or so if you look hard enough.

If that’s not an option, some things to look out for are the longest shutter speed the camera will allow. The longer the better. The lowest ISO possible. A lot of P&S will go as low as 50. You’ll need a camera with a self-timer since any movement at longer shutter speeds will cause major blur. Finally, an inexpensive but well-built tripod. You aren’t supporting 10 lbs of camera gear, so no need to spend a lot.

Set your camera on the tripod, set your ISO to 50, if you can, switch to shutter priority mode, or whatever mode will allow the longest shutter speeds, set the timer, stand back and wait.

Excellent luck.

The camera you want doesn’t exist.

Only a dSLR can do it well, and even then you need some skills.

There are some campacts that are better than others, but the 150 dollar budget keeps them out of reach.

But just for the heck of it, let’s say you had the dough. Panasonic LX3, Sigma’s forthcoming DP2, or mayber a Fuji F31d.

But for night stuff, you’ll need a dSLR with a fill in lens or quick zoom if you plot on doing anything at night hand held (no tripod).

If you use a tripod, force the ISO to the lowest background, you can do night stuff. But the shutter will be open for a long time, that rules out any public pics, as public tend to go during a long shutter open shot.

Sorry.
