Need advice for battery of powershot A570IS.
Any good rechargeable batteries to intro?

hi..anyone can help me ? i dunno much about digital camera...i wanna get a canon digital camera..budget rm600..which model is nice and under my budget ???

GP. That's what everyone recommends. Hahax. But I'm using Kodak batteries. Doing well. I snap 600+ photos (including 10+ photos with flash) and the battery still hasn't flat yet.

wah the s5is looks much better now, it looks like having a 50mm lens on the front...

directphoto good price eh ? what is good price there?

A460, RM450, get a 2GB SD at RM100, spend the last RM50 on printing, approx 100 4R prints.

Spending money is so damn easy. LOL

welcome to the canon family

@lek_e30,

how long ur unit can last for battery life ??

i think it's better u go garage sales , look for the list of camera under ur budget , choose a few model n ask for comment here.....easier to give comment...

i'm using rechargeable batt, maybe ard 200 shot!! not sure cause never keep track to the batt life

Hi, how about IXUS 70??? any1 has use this b4??? any comen on this model???

Waterproof? How many cameras out there are waterproof? If you are interested in under water photo, get a casing.

Not being waterproof is not a 'weakness', it's a built feature. Should the IXUS 70 retain all its features PLUS waterproof I think the price may go way higher than the Olympus as well as the latest Casio one jor

Hi, guys i have a 400D and i wanna ask advice for a lens. I like to do close up photograph(Photography jewelry and Nature). I was looking at the EF 180mm f/3.5L Macro USM but the Closest Focusing Distance (ft) is 1.59ft compared to the EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM with the Closest Focusing Distance (ft) 4.9ft so if i zoom all the way im guessing i would magnify the image more than the macro lens plus i like the IS in the lens. Underwater photography is nice to have IS.

Added Sigma 70-300mm F4-5.6 APO DG MACRO-Minimum Focusing Distance: 150cm / (95cm Macro mode)59.1 in. / (37.4 in. Macro mode) also thinking bout this but wanna ask sifu's for advice.

ISO number is the digital camera sensors sensitivity to light. The higher the sensitivity, the less light is needed to make an exposure.. Higher ISO worst image quality because High ISO gives u high image distortion or noise.
