err forgot to mention. prefer camera with viewfinder also..any suggestion?

I am a single mother that has a daughter.. I am looking for a multi angle camera which we are able to have more photos together when we go out.. is Samsung MV800 good? What is the general and best price now? Any other recommendation for budget around RM700??

I don't think there's any other flip screen cams at that price point.

I used a more low tech approach for self portrait with my kids.. I got one of those mirror sticker and stick it infront of the camera.

oh thanks for the idea!!

where can i find this dlsr?
any suggestion places/photoshop around KL?

p/s: I mean d7k

guys need some suggestions....gonna be traveling alot and i want to take close to DLSR images which can focus....i dont want smtg too bulky....

is canon s100 good for me?

Just go and shop lo. Cant help u since i'm not located in malaysia

How do you define "close to dslr" image?

i know S100 has HDR....but can it focus really well as close to Dslr?

It sounds like you're quite new to photography so I reckon that a travel zoom compact like Canon SX230HS would be more useful for you.

It's like the jack of all trades. Does everything reasonably well... small, light, good stabilization, big zoom range, decent image and video.

S100 and many higher end compacts are technically "better" but unless you're a photography enthuasiast who nitpicks or print very large prints..... those "better" are moot points for a regular user.

Hope that helps.

dang the price is not far from S100....adoi dilemma....ty sniper...

Type of camera/lens/accesories : Dslr

Type of camera/lens/accesories : Dslr
Budget: <rm4000
Your Location: kuantan
Preferable brand : canon or nikon
Type of photography u want to do : street
Any specific models in mind? :60d or 600d 0r d5100
Any specific features u want? : good bokeh

found this website in a magazine.. http://www.shutterzen.com/shop/category.php?id_category=34 is it valid??

Both are more or less the same.
600D has a swivel screen and 550D don't.
Both also have AUTO mode

Bokeh's all in the lens not the camera body in this case.

Type of camera/lens/accesories: i want something like small and compact, but my friend suggest me a DSLR..better batt hours, can change lens..
Budget:around 2K including lens
Your Location: KL
Preferable brand : resellable brand in case i want to resell it with high value...
Type of photography u want to do : landscape, point and shoot
Any specific models in mind? : canon, or other brands but not nikon.
Any specific features u want? : no specific features, but i want to learn more about photography skills, and also i want to use for travel and leisure.

If you want good resell value then I think you should stick to popular brands like Canon and alike.

In the market, there are few systems (mounts) to consider...
1. the ever-growing micro four third mounts (olympus, panasonic, and so on)
2. the new nikon 1 mount
3. conventional old-school mounts like canon, nikon, sony a-mount and so on.

for the first 2, it's a hybrid we call, mirrorless. the third is of the conventional one.

There are lots of cameras that you can consider but I would recommend you to go and study some of them first and find out what are the differential factors between them then you can make the right call!

hi.. i oso finding a camera tat hv front view.. thinking of samsung PL120? at 1st got thk of the mv800.. but im thkin izit worth.. since it dun hv much function.. i js wan a camera can shoot better image quality thn my current hp HTC Desire... what's ur opinion?
btw, where u get the mirror sticker? i need tat for my hp too~ i dunno where can buy tat... ^^"

I'm not located in malaysia but anything reflective would do since u just need to agak agak and let face detection autofocus to do its job. Like some phones have chrome trimmings around the camera so u can see ur face..well.. Same concept.

yea.. i knw tat.. but is quite hard to measure too.. is the best got the sticker.. i find it like an age d..... sigh...

Hi sifus and gurus,

I need some help. I've been using a Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ5 for the past 3 years, and I've been extremely happy with the performance of this camera. However, the camera is now showing signs of wear and tear and it doesn't focus properly when taking videos and it sometimes can't even turn on. Because of that, I'm looking to get another camera.

Is it possible for me to get something similar to the TZ5 around the RM500 - RM1000 range? If no, what is the best camera you would recommend for that budget?

EDIT: I haven't really started looking, but saw a samsung PL120 yesterday, which looked ok. However, reviews don't seem to rate it too highly, and a few friends have discouraged me from buying samsung cameras.

I had one of those too
and yeah... it's a nice camera.

You could try looking at this http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/q311travelzoomgrouptest/17

The ZS10 in the review is known as the TZ20 in our part of the world... also the direct descendant of your TZ5.
