end in 9 hrs, you can easily win it at rm450 but not sure if its 100% new. newspeed sell alot of factory recond.

oh TQ


i email to fujifilm company ask about which camera under my budget..hahaha got ppl reply me but just ask me go to their shop see..

yeap....coz the shop price not same, he cannot give u the dealer price...

Only Fujifilm cameras got cameras under RM700 and using Lithium battery? Seems everyone is mentioning F31d, really that good? How about F30? Is it cheaper since not many changes compare to F31d?

if F20 ??????

I see one Fujifilm Finepix F20 around RM582, but dunno comes with free card or not...looks like the camera getting quite high reviews

it is not that good, but it is really good!!

even F31fd also hard to find, let alone F30

oh gosh...i plan to buy Fujifilm Finepix F20 is it even harder to find one? wat is it so hard to find the price haizzz

f20 has been replaced with f40 (not as good), not much stock left, you can only find f31 or f40 now.

i went midvalley yesterday... alot place dint sell F20 already.but they can go to take stock if u wan..but rm 800+

F31 oso dint sell already...they just sell F40 rm988


haih... this saturday need go to sungai wang search again under my budget

omg so sad!!! now i can't buy another Lithium-ion camera under RM700 anymore!!! kitty84 if u find one tell me wat model u buy ya

fujifilm Z5

Cool i'm also targeting Sony DSC-W55 also...i see one price around RM715 only!!! i think this camera got so many colors i think u will like pink


i think doesnt come with memory stick pro duo (MSPD) but 1G of MSPD is only around RM100...so total up around RM815...hmm a bit over budget but i also heard good reviews about it!

it will be very nice put side by side with my SE W810i hehe!

ya...i saw the pink 1 ..i like it very much


so i thinking sony w55 or fuji Z5 lo..both oso pink..price almost same...

price also almost same? around RM800+? hmm...looks like need to do super intense research to find out which is the best.. but if price same hor...

ermm.. Fujifilm one very good in low-light shooting, also wins in style-n-look..but Sony has a better battery life (my critical feature )... Fuji 6MP and Sony 7MP doesn't really concern me ba..

well u can see more details here:
Fuji FinePix Z5fd - http://www.digitalcamerainfo.com/specs/rub...ePix%20Z5fd.htm
Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W55 - http://www.digitalcamerainfo.com/specs/rub...t%20DSC-W55.htm

hope no more cameras in contention...gonna go making all the comparisons!

edit: wah, now got new color, lighter pink

This post has been edited by kitty84: Aug 1 2007, 07:47 AM

I took the picture from Fujifilm official website (its at the bottom)...but dunno the pink in available in m'sia or not la...
http://www.fujifilm.com/products/digital_c...z5fd/index.html

after reading thru reviews, hmmm Z5fd camera really have bad battery life...can only take around 100-140pics, compare to W55 which can take around 300+ pics

har...just 100-140pics... -.-" haih..

Upgrade memory card lor..

about battery life la..not memory card

buy spare/extra lor

fri will go pc fair

saturday will go sungai wang....


i think nobody buy camera will pening like me...went to many place..kakakakka


at the end which camera i buy.... i will let u all know la

i also almost pening reading reviews and compare several digital cameras...always read until late at night not enough sleep although i didn't go around shops ask around...but i get the price from this forum itself...

in the end i will choose Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W55 or Fujifilm Finepix F31fd...

i dunno wat u will buy, but if u buy one better than both above, then i will change my choice again

This post has been edited by navilink: Aug 2 2007, 07:03 PM

hahahhaa but in fujifilm , the most popular is F31

in forum , most of them oso ask me buy F31 , at shop oso ask me get F31 / F40


sony w55 i think just outlook nice only ler

if u want get a more nicer so i can introduce u get panasonic lumix good camera wit stablizer mode, leica lens ... lumix fx10 o fx12. fx10 got 6mega an fx12 got 7 mega. that still made in japan. fx10 780 wit 1gb & fx12 880 wit 1gb..the batt life is strong enough for 300pic

hmm...apart from the Fujifilm's F31fd unbeatable ISO and face detection, i think F31fd and W55 is almost comparable and equal.. Panasonic FX10 also a choice...

w55 and f31 where comparable? w55 sensor how big? fx10 cannot take pic over iso200.

i dunno wat is sensor stuff, but now if take pics during daytime, the pics should be very super near...macro shot also same i guess...

Seriously i suggest nikon coolpix S9..much better than fuji.nikon digicam create much more easy for amature..trust me..i do.if dont want go to casio or olympus..much better canon but its too expensive

Added on August 4, 2007, 7:50 ampanasonic fx10 how much?

This post has been edited by kitty84: Aug 4 2007, 07:50 AM

yes in good daylight not much difference, but do you wanna take indoor pic or lowlight pic like this? you cant take this kind of pic with sony or canon, only fuji.


for outdoor picture this is taken with f31fd, see the details captured:
http://www.jpages.net/images/FIRE_124.JPG

you said you saw in a shop f20 at rm580, thats very good price, why dont you buy it? f20/30/31 they all use the same sensor and lens, same IQ.

Panasonic FX10 is around RM790-RM850 range...comes with free 2GB SD card...


@greyPJ: no la i didnt say i saw an F20 at RM580...if got i already snap one up!!! Fujifilm getting worse from F31fd to F40fd...

and no la i won't take any pictures in clubs or pubs

This post has been edited by navilink: Aug 4 2007, 09:24 AM

if you dont take lowlight or indoor pics, only good daylight outdoor and macro, then its very easy, buy lumix, the battery life is good, IQ outdoor is good, got OIS, good video and cheap.

Added on August 4, 2007, 9:35 amsony w55 also can, if you dont mind the blood sucking proprietary memory card and bad video.

This post has been edited by greyPJ: Aug 4 2007, 09:35 AM

around 700-800 depend wat memory card u wan if u interest can pm me

MSPD is expensive ya but really bad movie? hmm.. but reviews said:

actually wat i seen in the pic just show is a pic tat no on flash.. so the camera is using high iso so the pic will come wit so much noise

you cannot trust review 100% (except dpreview), sometimes the reviewers arent so smart and dont have the experience..

did you dl that video sample from dcresourse? that daylight video from w55 is just ok, i give it 5/10, canon has the best video, follow by lumix.

sony usually have problem in lowlight video, see this for example:

http://forums.steves-digicams.com/forums/v...921&forum_id=23

actually is looking for camera not for video how good also is was a camera.. an more good video it will effect u pic tat why sLr camera there dont have any video function

omg wat a superbly different video lightings!! thanks greyPJ.. u very pro in camera thing! so now i need to ditch my Sony W55?

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W55
Panasonic Lumix FX10
Fujifilm Finepix F31fd (current market price?)

F31 hard to find already , F40 rm988

later i will go sungai wang... wish me can get a good price camera la..kekekekke

so u no need find for fujifilm cause no much shop got sell it

F40d not so expensive ler...see here its around RM 860 ( FREE 2GB XD ):
http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/154761

yes that is super cheap if it really comes with 2gb xd, 2gb xd cost rm160 so the camera is only rm700, very cheap.

i would say it is 2gb sd, not xd.

i very disappointed that F40fd worse than F31fd...battery life down by almost half, no manual aperture and shutter, ISO shots worse, to top it off, addition of SD no use, SD is slower and xD... summore they wan stop F31fd production...dam

i buy camera already...guess which camera i buy ? hehehehhee



i bought F470 rm499 only



i went to few shop in sungai wang..most of them no sell fujifilm then i go to lowyat there...ask 1 shop 1st , sell F470 rm800++ ...lucky i search in website already..this camera impossible sell so expensive...then i cabut i went to foto sangri-la shop..saw this camera just rm499

after tat i test it ....not bad... then i bought it and take alot pic already..hehe

congrat on ur purchase! very affordable well, is the RM499 included xD card? if not how much u buy the xD card?

which shop sell F470 RM800++?! blacklist the shop!

yes true, very affordable, very low price but not good value for money, not worth spending rm500 (500 is still alot of money) to get a fuji that doesnt have fuji superccd, max iso only 400. better add rm250 and get f31fd.

haha well i think kitty84 also dunno wat ISO is for ...so won't matter lor...

as long can shoot photos, download to computer or print out, and share memories and laughters with friends and family can d right right kitty84

for me is more to intermediate, i care about the ISO a bit, battery life and video capability.. and of course be able to get help when dunno how to use a function...(meaning buy a camera that most ppl got one)

Congratulations!!

rm499 free 512mb memory card......


i snap alot pic already.... go to my website see http://mindysy.multiply.com

album " gathering at fren house "

pic clear...not bad

nikon is quite good too for entry level camera

wah very good overall price indeed!!! u know outside there sell 512MB xD card like around RM80 leh!

yeah.. happy .... i wanna ask... when we dint use camera..the li-on battery need to take out ?

nice?

This post has been edited by kitty84: Aug 6 2007, 08:34 AM

food or the pic? food not nice. pic is ok.

if not use camera for a long period, like 1 month, better take out the battery leave the charge at 60% full, this is the optimum charge level reco by the experts.

if few days or 1 week, no need to take out.

charge the battery when it is half empty, dont use till it totally runs out of power, this will prolong the lit-ion live.

anyone is using nikon coolpix L10 or S200 ...need some input n comments..thought of buying it...

i read this topic for few days as i also had a budget like kitty84...but yesterday i donno why i grabbed sony W80 at rm900 damn can eat maggi only for few week

icic..TQ

Sony DSC-W80 not a bad camera ...actually wanted to buy DSC-W55...W80 got extra face detection though...
