QUOTE(dvlzplayground @ Mar 17 2010, 05:04 PM) pretty big budget for a compact there  maybe canon SX120IS? if u really want good concert shots, the best way is to get as close to the stage as possible. so spend the balance for a better ticket! I already bought the most expensive ticket, but i cant take the picture with my SE Satio even with a 12.1mp camera phone, after zoom, the picture still sux. that actually makes me wanna buy a camera. but i look at the picture on the camera, it looks bulky leh, u sure we can smuggle that into the concert hall ar? |

QUOTE(dvlzplayground @ Mar 17 2010, 07:11 PM) that's because it's a phone...even 2mp camera u buy in 2002 can beat current 12mp phone u know.. to me it's not that bulky in real life. maybe can also consider lumix tz7? im assuming u need long zoom here though. if u want really2 good concert photos like in magazines u need a dslr with good lens...which is very hard to smuggle lah haha no la, what i wan is at least can see the artist face and know it is that particular artist's concert i attended when i post it at facebook. coz i try to take with the camera phone, u will see those petak petak after we zoom it too much and can't even see the face clearly. so in conclusion, i wan the smallest camera that can give me the best quality picture if i take from about 20m-50m distance. At least they dun give me the petak petak after i zoom it. Sorry coz i am a noob here, all the while i assume that since those SE phone comes with cybershot, so i persume that it works the same as a digicam. That's why i keep changing mobile phone and didn't think of getting a camera last time until recently i saw a picture taken from my aunt's 8mp digicam is much clearer than my phone, then i start to think wanna get 1 to smuggle into concert halls  |

Wanted to get 1 of those camera by next week for a concert. after 1 month of research, i narrowed it down to this 4 models. i surveyed all the price in Singapore (i surveyed them in best denki). here is the price list.
Panasonic lumix DMC-TZ10 ---$649
Panasonic lumix DMC-TZ7 ---$599
Canon PowerShot SX210 IS ---$649 (this is new product and i got the price from Canon SG website)
Canon PowerShot SX200 IS ---$649
after reading all reviews and stuff. initially i have decided to get the TZ10. but my friend(she do part time photography) told me that Canon is better compare to Panasonic. I am not that pro and what made me difficult in choosing now is the new Canon SX210 which comes with a 14x zoom that is better compare to the TZ10.I will be getting it on next friday. so which 1 to choose har? Canon or Panasonic?
