Would buying my own digital camera worth it though i won't often use it?  |
|
I am thinking to buy one either a brand new or a second hand one. But i feel that i don't go out and travel and don't go out with friends that much, it can be a waste. But for rare occasions i would have the chance to use a camera, i feel that i want to have my own to record or have a copy of that place or event.
Would you think it will be still worth it if i get one. The one i am planning to buy is Canon A470.
Actually i am deciding between this camera, ipod touch or ipod classic. I don't know which is more important and useful to me.

2. Jennlk84 (2269) | 7 months ago | I couldn't live without my digital camera. I think cameras are a great thing to have. I carry mine around with me in my purse and can capture any moment that I want to! I would recommend checking out craigslist or ebay. I just recently sold mine DIRT CHEAP on craigslist. So I'm sure others are doing the same thing. Might be a great way to set something next to new and very cheap.

hotsummer (2694) | 7 months ago | is craiglist internation site. cause i thought it is for US only. i think that the products in ebay in our country. the items are not cheap at all. they are just as expensive as brand new ones. or just a little less though they are second hand.

|
|
Jennlk84 (2269) | 7 months ago | Craiglist has listings for all over the world. I actually just passed a link along to someone for craiglist in Inida.

hotsummer (2694) | 7 months ago | yeah i have seen my country in it after a while. but i got disappointed, cause people here usually sell their used items just a little less than the original price. unlike in US where they sell their old items or just used items for a while to much lesser price cause i checked it out too. like the items are sold for steal. unlike here people usually will want to get much money back as much as possible. so i may end up buying a brand new. just look it up online, the brand new locally, the lowest price is about $175. quite expensive still. hope to find at least $125. or less

| 3. zyc888 (36) | 7 months ago | Canon A470 should be better. However, I use Olympus.
| |
| |
|
|
hotsummer (2694) | 7 months ago | i think that olympus is just fine too. depending on the model. i don't know if there are cheap olympus out there that is easy to use and has great features for its low price.

| zyc888 (36) | 7 months ago | Olympus store should have.

hotsummer (2694) | 7 months ago | thanks for the good review. i think i will definitely going to buy this now. i am just saving enough money . it may take another month before i get that amount but i will definitely will. after than i planning to buy ipod touch which take another two months. anyways, i would definitely love to have it soon.
and for battery. does it include rechargeable battery. what batteries are good to use for this camera. is it lithium. i have just read it somewhere. i forgot if it is lithium or the other kind that is good to use for this one.

rosdimy (1879) | 7 months ago | For best performance use alkaline or lithium batteries. In the long run lithium rechargeable batteries are better because the actual cost would be lower. Get one with a rating of at least 1600mA. If possible get 4 of them because you will always have a spare. Manufacturers sell rechargers with 2 or 4 batteries.
| |
|
|
hotsummer (2694) | 6 months ago | yes i think that rechargeable batteries are much battery. but it is quite expensive too to invest on those rechargeable batteries and also the chargers but it is still a good buy.

5. rakittera (444) | 7 months ago | I always carry a point-and-shoot digital camera inside my bag, especially since I became a mother. It's true that a person becomes a camera addict once there's a baby in the house. A camera also always comes in handy for that "Kodak moments", for example, you may just run into Angelina Jolie or Brad Pitt, wouldn't you be thankful that you had a camera with you when that happens?
So, I would definitely advise you to get a digital camera yourself. I also suggest you get a brand new one so that you'll be assured of the quality. Good luck and happy camera-hunting!

hotsummer (2694) | 6 months ago | yeah having a baby will be a very good reason to buy a digital camera. wish i have good reasons to buy camera too.

6. chrislotz (6055) | 7 months ago |  I like having a digital camera for just about anything. Everyday stuff. When I need a picture of myself for something I can do one right then and put it on my computer. It is just so handy to have. When I signed up with plenty of fish, for the fun of it, I was able to post recent pictures of myself, like right that minute.
I also carry it in my purse all the time just incase I see something I like or want to remember. If I see some add about something on sale and I want to remember it I take a picture of it and every day, usually a few times a day, I make it a habit to look at the pictures I have on my camera and then I will see the picture of the ad of the thing I wanted to rememmber was on sale and I may go buy it. I also delete them after I am done with them.

hotsummer (2694) | 6 months ago | yeah i see a lot of people doing that on the malls. taking pictures of exercise machines. every time i go this mall near our place i always find some people taking picture of that exercise machine. i just wonder why are they particularly interested in taking picture of that particular machine. anyways, yes it is really handy to have camera. but i find it hard cause i don't bring any bag with me. and i don't like carrying camera by my hand though it has pouch or own bag for it. i want something i can slid inside my pocket so i won't have to carry it. and so the slimmer kind of cameras are quite too expensive for me though.

7. TheCatLady (1592) | 6 months ago | Canon is a good brand. The camera you chose seems to be more than adequate for a point and shoot camera. You also might want to consider a camera phone. The newer one have good resolution. Not 7 mega pixels, but many have 5, which is more than enough. With a camera phone, you can send pictures to your friends at the touch of a button.
Don't buy used. They break easy and it's not worth it to save a few dollars.
I'm looking for a new camera. I have had 2 break already. I'm debating whether to get a cheep camera or a new camera phone. I'm considering the Blackberry 9000. Any ideas on that?

hotsummer (2694) | 6 months ago | i am considering that too instead of buying a camera or digital. but camera phone is quite expensive though compared to canon A470 which is only about $150. but it is not easy to bring anywhere. cause i just wanted to put it inside my purse. so i am planning to buy camera instead. after reading one topic here i want to buy Sony Ericsson C905. seems a good phone. but quite expensive. i think it is more than $200 locally here. may be about $300. so i am still thinking it through. but i don't like though that digital cameras easily get drained of batteries. and cellphone usually last much longer and that is why i still have hesitation.
i think that camera phone is better. but i have to save more money though. as of the moment i can't afford to buy camera phone.
