have you got your new camra? HS10 or nikon?

the last i saw, miyamondo was selling 1390.....looks like the price dropped.......i got my S200 from them......

is HS20 selling for 1888 in malaysia now?

i am very impressed with s200.

very easy to use and the picture quality is very good after making some changes in the default picture settings....

i have shaky hands. the shutter release helps a lot especially when i have zoom out to the max....

i am still looking for HS10 at the moment mainly because of my budget....hehehe....2nd bridge camera in less than one month...hahaha

i think i'll probably want to get 2nd hand at the moment. looking for less than 1000.....wonder if anyone that want to sell.....

i tried hs10 in berjaya times square and very impressed with it.....i got s200 in first place because i found out from online review and sample photos that s200 has lower noise and better picture quality. but when i tried out hs10.....the picture quality is very good too. since i don't print my pictures more than a4 size, hs10 would also be enough. plus i am searching this for my wife. a very nice bridge camera size for a lady....
s200 a bit tad too big but still usable for my wife

hmm...to me i don;t really have much preference of what type of battery. of course AA is widely available. but what is important to me is that I have a backup. so that's why i have a spare NP140.

I got an extra battery for my camera. better buy now that later when I can't find any

the cameras that you suggested are good but I specifically looking for manual zoom ring......so right now it's either HS10 or SP570UZ

plus the auto mode for HS10 and SP570UZ are pretty good. very good point and shoot and if need to do manual adjustments, the cameras allow to do that.

i have not seen SP570UZ selling for some time now, even used one....

so I guess the only choice left is HS10

someone is selling HS10 in forum....wonder how much is best price

hmm....the person wants 1130

Hmm. Hs 20 looks yummy

Abit lazy to bargain nowadays.

totally agree.

i just want to add these pros of having a superzoom bridge camera against entry level dslr with kit lens:-

- no need change lens. most of the time during travel, you don't have the time and place to change lens. you'll most likely end up losing the moment or getting dust in your camera sensor when changing lens. the only way to solve this is to get a versatile lens for your dslr which will easily cost a bomb
- travel light
- HS10/HS20 also have mechanically linked zoom. so the experience will be very similar to entry level dslr. especially so if the photographer is only using auto mode on the dslr
- ESR function in the camera is very useful
- many more but the few above is already winning points
