digital camera?




lalala


so i lost my last digital camera at bamboozle left, and i never got it back. sad, :'[
anywayyy, i want a new one and am willing to save up for it, as long as its no more than $350

i want it to be digital and work well. I dont really mind if its anything fancy fancy, you know? it doesnt' have to be perfect for photography or anything, just not like bad-quality photos. i was thinking about the nikon coolpix s550 in pink or blue, yes, i like colorful things too.
i want it to be small though, i keep it in my pocket for the most part. or i DID, before i lost my old one.
it was a panasonic lumix, btw, which i lovedddd, but it wasn't that great, more of a sentimental thing:]

anyway, any reviews on the coolpix s550 would be helpful, or if theres any suggestions.
really like your camera right now? tell me wat it is, the pros and cons, etc.

help me out here:D



Answer
Nikon makes pretty good digital cameras. They take good pictures too. Just remember, there is no such thing as the best brand or the best digital camera out there. Each camera is good and bad in their own way. Panasonic has good optics (lens) but low quality sensors (like the film or eye in the digital camera). Nikon has really good optics. Any camera will be good for the type of pictures you might want to take. I couldn't find a review for the Nikon S550 so sorry about that but I am pretty sure it will be good.

As for me, I currently own a Fujifilm Finepix Z5fd. It is an older camera. It is small, stylish and takes really really good pictures. Fujifilm uses really good optics (they make their own just like Canon and Nikon) and make one of the best and unique sensors on the market (Super CCD) they make one of the best low light digital cameras. That means you can snap pictures in low light and they still come out good (better than the majority of Point & Shoots I have owned from other manufactures) but they dont come in alot of cool colors that you are looking for. Look around. That Nikon you are looking at is a pretty good camera

Best Nikon Standard Zoom Lens For a D80 Nikon Digital Camera.?




Jim D


I would like to stay within the Standard Nikon zoom choices. Also which standard non - zoom AF lenses are OK to be used on the D80.


Answer
I'm not sure what you mean by "standard."

If you mean something that is not a "super-zoom," then look at the lens that comes in the kit. It's an 18-135 that covers quite a bit of territory without being very heavy or large. Ken Rockwell isn't in love with the lens, though.

http://www.kenrockwell.com/nikon/18-135.htm

His favorite - and one of mine - is the 18-200 VR lens. It's not cheap ($750) and pretty much unavailable unless you want to pay a premium price ($900+) on eBay. This is a good "walking around" lens. This is the lens that pretty much lives on my camera to be ready for anything, unless I change it to another lens when I know I am going to be shooting for a specific purpose. Okay, it's not the world's PERFECT lens, but it is not too shabby. Go here and read Rockwell's review:

http://www.kenrockwell.com/nikon/18200.htm

Go here and look at the sample images. Click on them to view them full screen. If you click at least once in the white space, your cursor will turn into a magnifier when you scroll it back over the image. Click again over the image and it will zoom to 100% size so you can really examine the image.

http://www.kenrockwell.com/nikon/18200/examples/index.htm

I suggest this lens because it's not too much bigger than the 18-70, but it adds quite a bit of reach and you will find that you just won't have to change lenses for your stated subjects. The 10 MP of the D80 will allow plenty of cropping if you can't get quite as full an image as you'd like.

"Optically, this lens is the best superzoom weâve seen, though itâs not compatible with Nikon teleconverters, extension rings, or coupled macro bellows. It also costs about $300 more than third-party digital-only glass. But are extremely rugged construction, unusually well-controlled distortion, and four extra handholdable speeds worth the extra bucks? That, and more."

If by "standard," you mean non-DX lenses, then consider the 24-85 or the 24-120:
