Re: Digital Cameras
I cant speak for either of the cameras you asked about
but if there is any chance you will take photography seriously, here are some things to look for
optical zoom. photos always look better when zoomed in - its very rare that a normal lens or wide angle will give you a photo that looks right unless you hold it right up to your nose, or enlarge it very big. Digital zoom is a marketing scam - all they do is throw away pixels - the more optical zoom range a camera has the more usefull it will be
shutter speeds and F stops. One of the powerfull tools of photography is being able to control the shutter speed to take fast action shots, or to leave the lens open as long as you want for dim light/ night time photos. Its amazing what you can capture on film when you leave the lens open at night on a city scape for a minute or two, or out in the wild for an hour or so.
