QUOTE(juan1252 @ Dec 11 2006, 12:24 PM) hehe, yeaps! after much considerationnnnnnnn.....S3 is the final choice lam moreover got a good price for it Agree with the points you stated. ISO400 for me is the MAX i would push for. Also the batteries tend to get heavier as you get higher capacity ones. Im using 2700 ones but can't really tell the difference from my 2500s but heavier makes it steadier but i do find some cons in that camera.... - ISO800 noise is quite bad - the batteries are making the camera real heavy - the lens cap can be quite loose azxel, u got the S3 too? . Lens cap is so pissing off at times. If you attach it then it'll just get in the way. With the lens adapter on at all times now I don't use the lense cap.....  |
