hey guys, im thinking of getting canon g12. should i? I like to take pictures, i've only had a mobilephone for a camera in the past.

is the g12 an overkill for me, who takes casual photos, i dun see myself taking extraordinarily creative pictures for the masses anytime soon or at all.

a canon PnS (powershot 300 or something) i found cost 1.2k and the g12 is priced at 1620. worth the rm400 extra?
*
if you like more controls, can go for G12.

otherwise sony nex 3 is very good option too.

Tell me which DSLR does if its not much wink.gif

well, no DSLR can do video more than 29 minutes 59seconds straight as it will be classified under 'video recorder' under EU laws and the taxes will be higher.

if you prefer manual controls then lx5 or g12..

more auto mode can get NEX-3 or S95..

but IQ and high ISO performance wise NEX-3 wins all.

u mean manual / auto control ??  ( erm semi? sometime auto, sometime manual??  got such thing mou??)
for nite mode, nex3 flash good enough?? (i used few sony digital cam their nite mode  cry.gif )

err..have u even touched and seen those cameras before?

g12 and lx5 got a lot of buttons n dials to set your settings to take your shots..

but NEX-3..the settings all located inside the menus so auto mode(which adjusts all the settings for your) works better..

for night mode..people dun usually use flash la..but nex 3 got this handheld twilight mode which makes night time pictures taking very nice laugh.gif

wow.. so overall Nex-3 better lor??
nex - 3 package come with flash?? isn the 1 u mentioned handheld twilight?
*
image quality and high iso noise handling wise, yes NEX-3 is better. but if you want to learn how to adjust those settings, its possible in NEX-3, but a bit troublesome, compared to g12.

its comes with a flash, but its not built in. you have to snap it on.

. and each one of them has its own pros and cons, i mean look at sony's SLT cameras. to me i think the video mode with continuous AF system are amazing, but there's a loss of 30% light. to some people that's a no big issue, i mean, to me, it wont be an issue of course because im just into photography as a hobby. but for the pros, maybe they wont like it.
*
30% loss of light is the difference between f5 and f5.6 only. those who really understands this, including 'pros' won be bothered.

See all those camera spec also headache already..

Haih... In my mind just Lx-5 , G12 and Nex-3

Just choose one for me? If not I rather save my money go take back Lx-3 enough. Faint a...

Main concern of taking photo of my puppies. They keep move around. I would much prefer shutter speed. In a fast shutter speed, which can get a better quality photo?

LOL!!!

nex 3! can bump high iso and get higher shutter.

I need help with choosing between 2 dslrs
1. Sony a55
2. Canon 60D

I know it is nicer to go to Canon cause it is easier to get lens and it's the cheapest among all ...

I don't see a reason for not choosing Sony a55

Can anyone please help me in this ?
*
what makes you think its not easy to get lens for sony? ok fine. sony doesn't have a dedicated tilt shift, or 50mm f1.2 or a 85mm f1.2. will u be using those lenses straight away?

and what makes you think canon is the cheapest among all? rclxub.gif

u sounded like a sony fanboy bro. i mean, every negative comments about sony, u would be the first one to counter and defend it tongue.gif. anyways, zstan is right there. a friend of mine is using the old alpha. n his images are great. even his sets of lenses are alot.  thumbup.gif
yeah. u got the point right? but just to be sure, both cameras are great. i mean, the people who bought D90 2 years back, have no regrets. (this is as far as i know tongue.gif)


Added on November 25, 2010, 3:18 am

i wud say that's an excellent choice  thumbup.gif . or better yet, replace the 18-55 with the 18-200 smile.gif

just my opinion tho

not fan boy. people say wrong thing about canon and nikon i also will correct if i have the knowledge.

thx for yours reply
so, for urs opinion, which model is more worth of price??
and any good shop/retailer suggestion?

depends on your use lo. tx-7 and tx-9 almost the same ma.

for me i'd buy tx-5 due to its robustness though. drop on floor also won heart pain, but its a slightly old model la.

can try sg wang.
