Cameras - Panasonic Lumex, Nikon D70s SLR
I recently bought a D70s, and I like it a lot. It's hard to go back to SLR behavior after years of using a CoolPix 4500, but I like the results. The camera starts instantly, and the shutter goes off when you press the button, not 8 seconds later. You have to twist or pull the lens to zoom, tho, not like the Point-N-Shoot cameras with electric zoom controls. In the line of not-SLR high-end cameras, a friend recently bought a Panasonic Lumix camera, with the Leica 12x zoom lens. It also does a decent job of macro close-up work, and is identical to the Leica camera, except wrapped with rubber instead of leather, and $300 instead of $600 price. It isn't an SLR, but it IS a great camera. I just like Nikons, and Canon cameras just don't do it for me, even tho I confess they are great machines, I guess it's just tastes rather than objective facts. I do love Canon scanners and printers, tho, because they don't play funny ink games. Get a Nikon, you won't be sorry!
