You can buy them with a printer dock and then print real nice photo quality pictures with it. We have one and absolutely love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sperm Edwards Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 ok I dropped my camera an it is DOA......it was about 5 years old, so what good small digi's are out there? I want one with the battery you recharge, an need it mostly for road trips an taking pics of houses.....any ideas???? Thanks oxoxox I love my Exilim. The battery lasts forever in between charges. Like 500 pictures or if you don't use it then a couple of months later it still has enough of a charge to take lots of pictures. Also has a cool constant-on flash for taking mpeg's in bars where video never comes out due to low light. Oh, and it's friggin' small. I have a z850 (8 megapixel). The current model I think is z1050 (10 megapixel). I never blow up anything that big that I'd need it, but it's good for cropping stuff down to compensate for only having a 3x optical zoom. There are a lot of really good compact digital cameras out there. Only thing I'd keep in mind is Fuji & I think Olympus - both of whom make an excellent product - use a different memory card. XD instead of SD or something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want one with the battery you recharge, an need it mostly for road trips an taking pics of houses.....any ideas???? Thanks oxoxox ive have a samsung, a nikon cool pix and a kodak easyshare. I would stronly suggest the KODAK easyshare hands down. For 129, it takes great pics and does everything well with ease. Its better than my nikon which cost double. The only edge the nikon has is that the pics are slightly sharper. But youd have to study the pics closely and blow them up. The samsung SUCKED. I dunno abou the rechargable thing though...i buy the 12 dollar 30 pack of AA's at home depot and change the as i need em. I found the rechargables to last not much longer than the regular ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heres advice: DONT get hung up on the Megapixel #. Its all a marketing scam. My 2 megapixel nikon takes shots better than my 6 meg kodak. explain that (remember, im splitting hairs here. there is virtually no difference both take stunning shots) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
