This is PowerShot SX110 IS as per Canon Hong Kong site.

Yup both can be found here in Malaysia.

Read steventan85 post (Post #1445) just above yours.

Anybody have this Lumix TZ7?
It is advertised as 10.1 million effective pixels, 25 mm - 300 mm (12x) zoom, Optical zoom in HD video.
At RM1400 comes with Free 6+4GB panasonic SD, Nike bag, lumix case, Neck strap, iA SD card holder, 1+2 years warranty it is very tempting for a travel compact cam.
But am more interest is its performance for low lightning condition?

Worth to sell, but not worth to buy. If it's IXUS 870IS then may consider as to what's the RM700 included, condition of the camera, screen protector and its accessories like extra battery and the capacity of memory card/s.

Prices of new compact cameras have fallen. These days you can get the same, if not better, features for less and with 2 yrs warranty, which is just right for its technological life span.

Do your maths and compare with a brand new Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS15@RM770 and see the freebies they are now giving till 31stMay2009.

IXUS 860is vs FZ15? I think you have the alphabets wrong! FZ15 is a very old dSLR 4 Megapixel, 36 - 432 mm (12x zoom)
IXUS 860IS's 28mm vs FS15's 29mm lens. on paper 1mm difference?

Other major considerations are:-
1. 8.0 Megapixel with 28-105mm vs 12.1 Megapixel with 29-145mm
2. 3-4 months warranty vs brand new DMC-FS15, Jan 2009 model with 33 mths warranty (before31stMay2009)
Like I said you do your maths first ya?

Err kodak... this is an ancient brand. I don't know about others but give me FREE! I also don't wan!
Don't buy anything from that Times Square shop! Check the post above on prices and freebies for FS15.

Kodak had exited Malaysia market for their range of consumers products. Last I heard, all Kodak film, paper and chemicals is distribute by Wywy and all Kodak digital cameras is distribute by Compugates.
