Hey! im a designer that is currently looking forward to buy a camera for under 600 dollars, I don't know anything about photography but i have some ideas for photos i want to put on my portfolio as "additional work" The other day i saw that a website called "theverge" reviewed a camera called Fujifilm X10, that's the size i was looking for but later i also saw that it was not very good for begginers. Do you guys know any cameras that can compare to the x10 and are good for begginers in that price range? note: i would like a camera that can take decent panoramic pictures. Thank You!! more

Voting Question: Which DSLR is better? The Canon EOS Rebel T3i Digital SLR Camera or Sony SLT A57?

This will be my first DSLR, but I do have a bit of experience with DSLR's so I'm not really falling into something totally new, but there are still many things yet to explore for myself in this field. A majority of what I will be shooting is still life compared to sports shots. I understand that Canon has a significantly wider ranger of lenses, but I honestly only see myself buying me one or two more lenses ever so it's not a big deal. On top of taking stills, I want a camera with solid video capabilities and have heard many mixed reviews, each saying that the sony shines or the canon shines. Obviously I'm quite torn and although I am aware that both meet in a similar quality range, I want to make sure this long term investment I'm going to make is everything I wanted.I'm aware that sony is a SLT, which gives it advantages and disadvantages. I feel however that Sony is really rising as serious competitor in this market, especially seeing as how their translucent mirror technology is what cannon is planning on implementing in later models.@Crim Liar You're mistaken. The Sony can take video for as long as the memory card allows it, another advantage of it being an SLT. more

Resolved Question: Which of these cameras should I get? Beginning to study photography?

In September I'm going to be starting a level 3 extended diploma in photography so I'm looking into buying a new camera. I have a digital camera at the minute but want an upgrade.

Resolved Question: Which of the Fuji FinePix would be best recommended?

I'm looking on amazon for Fuji FinePix cameras under 200 dollars. Many are currently under 200 at the moment thankfully. I have been into photography for quite sometime now and have been using a point and shoot camera, which my photos were later compared to the quality of an slr camera and said to be of near almost equal quality, this will be my first slr camera, please don't judge me, I have finally just now gotten the money to get an slr camera on my own. I am a photography shot person so I'm looking for recommendations of the best ones that you have had experience with that fit my criteria - I like to photograph wild life so of course I need something that is fast and will be ready for the next picture as soon as I am. - Good quality even in lowlight. (in comparison to the Sony Cyber-shot Dsc-wx9 I would hope that a camera that will cost me this much would be good please.) - Vibrant and just high quality photos, I want to show the beauty that I see through my lens to the other people viewing my photos. - 18+ optical zoom, and still take good quality photos while zoomed. ( I hate when they become grainy) - A photo filter, where I can change the colour to black and white or sepia, those are the only two colour filters that I feel are very important to have on my camera any others will just be bonus content to play with - Good with lighting and reflections, I love to incorporate how the suns light is hitting an object and I need the camera to be good with most types of lighting. - and a camera that has different picture modes. A pro/con list/review of a camera you would recommend would be great!! I know I'm probably asking for a lot but those who decide to take the time to help me, if that is anyone, it would be very much appreciated. Thank you all ahead of time! more

Voting Question: Is the camera on the galaxy nexus is really bad?

I read review of the camera on the galaxy nexus is not that great compared to that of galaxy s2 and i thought if the 4.0.4 update will fix it or future update will.

Resolved Question: Should I buy this Lenovo Laptop?

I need a new laptop for high school, and was comparing laptops by the major brands, i.e, HP, Dell, Lenovo, Sony, Toshiba, Acer, etc. And found that the Lenovo IdeaPad G570 fits my requirements, and comes well within my budget. The Lenovo G570 was the most affordable, powerful laptop that I found, amongst it's competitors. It's features are as follows: -Second Generation Intel Core i5 Processor -4 GB DDR3 RAM -Free DOS (Which is exactly what I wanted) -Bluetooth 2.1/Camera /HDMI Port / Numric Keypad/ Card Reader /Rambo Tray in 12.7mm/ Black Color /15.6 HD LED - 550G 9.5mm 5400rpm Integrated Graphics So, what do you think? If you think that there are any other laptops with just as much, if not more features, at the same price, by other brands do let me know. And, if you've used this laptop before, do share your most valuable review :D Thanks BTW: I use laptops mainly for Internet, apart from Office Applications, and light gaming, and blogging. Mainly schoolwork, research, and watching movies, and TV shows at times, so I'm pretty sure this laptop can handle that.. right? more

Resolved Question: Bought Canon eos 500d and thinking of exchanging it for 1100d?

Hello guys, I know its bit stupid. For 3 months now, I have been waiting to buy a good professional camera(I am a canon fan) and accordingly did all my research etc and decided to buy 1100d(My budget is around 400 pounds). Jessops was giving a good deal 1100d for 369(with no extra lens or any other accessories and with just 18-55 lens). I went to the store yesterday to buy and when I saw 500d for almost same price(449 pounds) with normal 18-55 lens and extra 75-300 lens(which comes for 199 pounds if want to but separately) . I was so confused and took the help of teh sales assistants there. They suggested me to go for 500d as it is betetr than 1100d. Now I bought 500d but after coming home, I checked for reviews and compared teh two and everywhere, its just 1100d is better. I cannot even see 500d displayed along with other cameras on the online retailers websites . I am regretting now and thinking of exchanging it(as I did not open the packaging yet). Please help with any sugessions of which one is better( I am a beginer but I have a photographic sense about angles, settings etc and I need the camera for taking more pictures, less videos, holiday photography, landscaapes, potraits, flowers, animals and everything.Its like a multipurpose). Please suggest should i keep it or exchange it( I bought it for a lot of money and do not want to regret later on)Thanks everyone for the wonderful reviews..I am more confused now. :( Most of you have said to keep 500d and practice.But* I need a camera for my lifetime probably and I am not planning to upgrade for a better one later on.(Its because its a lot of money for me already and cannot invest a lot again). I am planning to invest just once in a good camera. Basically I need a camera just to shoot life in its best possible dimensions ans preserve the memories I have shot for my lifetime. Some of you say I should go for 1100d and some of you 500d. As I read, 500d is a 3 year old camera and 1100d just one year old. Are there any major changes in technologies the cameras use since past 3 years which the 1100d have and 500d doesnt? I am just planning to return itcoz its a outdated one may be. Please help me out! I am verrrrryy confused..:( more

Resolved Question: What do you people (Feminists are excluded) think of the TV series "sister wives" and...?

this thing I found on Wikipedia about it?... Sister Wives drew national media attention after its first season,[29] and garnered generally mixed reviews from critics. Washington Post staff writer Hank Stuever called it "refreshingly frank", and found most interesting the small details of the family's everyday life, such as the food supply, division of labor and minor arguments.[7] Los Angeles Times television critic Mary McNamara said she was intrigued by the matriarchal nature of the polygynist family, a unit which is traditionally considered patriarchal. McNamara said the wives form the center of the family, and that "their bonds appear far stronger and more vital than the casual fondness with which they all treat Kody".[30] Salon.com writer Schuyler Velasco praised Sister Wives for introducing viewers to unfamiliar subject matter, and called it "refreshingly modest" considering its controversial subject matter. Velasco said it has "a natural, honest presence in a genre fabled for the camera-hogging antics of Jersey Shore".[28] Shelley Fralic of The Vancouver Sun called it fascinating and surprising, and was impressed with the sensible and articulate way in which the family defended their lifestyle.[6] When the Brown family made an October 2010 appearance on The Oprah Winfrey Show, talk show host Oprah Winfrey said she found particularly fascinating the relationship between the sister wives.[31] Mark A. Perigard of the Boston Herald criticized Kody Brown for opening himself and his family up to potential criminal prosecution by appearing in the series, describing him as "a lawbreaker who is risking himself and the family he claims is so precious just to star in his own TV show".[8] Elizabeth Tenety of The Washington Post called the series "one part domestic drudgery, another part sensationalism", and claimed it relied on a "familiar reality TV recipe" shared by other TLC series such as 19 Kids and Counting and Kate Plus 8.[2] Religion Dispatches writer Joanna Brooks shared Tenety's perspective criticizing the show for presenting polygyny in a manner that "is about as interesting to me as Kate Gosselin’s latest makeover." In this vein Brooks criticized the show for not engaging the theology of plural marriage, and for letting Kody Brown's superficial comments about the dissimilarity of Fundamentalist and mainstream Mormonism pass onto the viewers without any critical scrutiny or added nuance.[11] Shari Puterman, television columnist with the Asbury Park Press, felt the sister wives had issues with jealousy and self-worth, and compared Kody to a cult leader. Puterman added, "I can't speak for everyone, but I believe in the sanctity of marriage. It's sad to see that TLC's capitalizing on people who don't."[32] Former prosecutor and television personality Nancy Grace criticized the show and said she believed Kody Brown should go to jail, but expressed doubt he would based on Utah's history of overlooking polygyny. Christine Seifert, an associate professor of communications at Westminster College in Salt Lake City, said the show could give viewers who are unfamiliar with the LDS church the incorrect assumption that polygamy is accepted by the mainstream church. Several commentators have taken notice of the fact that the family's religious convictions are downplayed in Sister Wives.Kaviya Kathir- same here, I only watched 2 episodes of it because I found it politically interesting. more

Resolved Question: Canon Powershot S100 or Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX9v? Help!?

I require a camera for traveling later this year but cannot decide between: the Canon Powershot S100 or the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX9v I gather from reviews that the Canon takes much better still photos but the Sony has much better video quality which is also a priority. The Sony has 16X optical zoom which will come in handy for traveling, compared to 5X in the Canon. The Sony is also cheaper, larger and has a longer lasting battery. So hard to decide! more

Resolved Question: For filming video, should I use a Nikon D700, Canon 5D Mark II or a Canon 5D Mark III?

I am trying to decide on a DSLR camera to use for pictures and fork filming. I will use it primarily for filming and I have read reviews comparing the Nikon D700 and Canon 5D Mark II and so I'd like some actual insight as opposed to just fanboy-ish flame wars. If you go with the 5D, should I get the Mark II or Mark III? I know the costs of all 3 and the money is not an issue, although if I don't need the Mark III, I'd rather not drop the extra $1K. Thanks. more

Resolved Question: Skyrim vs amalur bias?

I've seen alot of reviews and rants about amalur since it release and noticed how much hatred ppl have for it because of tiny things and making them sound game breaking like the npcs are to boring and the camera might screw up if your sensitivity is to high and my favorite complaint is that there is to much trivial story line ... my question is why is this game with very few hiccups being compared to skyrim all the time like all rpg games should aspire to be like it doesn't anyone remember that skyrim barely worked when it came out so I wanna know why tiny camera glitches break a game and lost save files on top of a long list of glitches doesn't and is in turn glorified as the "god of modern rpgs"?I asked this question again because most of the answers I was getting was from skyrim fanboys repeating what g4 said in their reviews ......

Resolved Question: Skyrim vs amalur????????????

Resolved Question: Why is there so much hypocracy about kingdoms of amular?

Resolved Question: Relating to EBay. I am new to EBay and i am a seller?

First, thank you for seeing and reading my topic. Ok, what i need to know you is your second opinion relating EBay. I just started out selling my prize possession or treasures on EBay. I knew that these items would sell because they were collectible. My only concerns are that everything went well as planned except for buyer or winning bidder. You see i did everything a woman would give to make sure all went well. I did inspect it and tested. I also made sure i tested again before shipping. I did take pictures of it when shipping out to the buyer. I even went the extra mile of shipping it Express using FEDEX of the buyer's choice although i put in the listing i would ship USPS flat rate box which was more cheaper but being that i am kind hearted i was happy to stick with the buyers preference of choice. I believe he liked that and he said he would give a positive feedback on EBay. I was happy he said that because i left him a positive feedback when i shipped out which was only fair. Yes, i should have waited but i felt comfortable of my decision of leaving the positive feedback first. Well, it got there as planned since i put a direct signature which someone had to sign for it, In addition, it was insured for total value i went on EBay auction which I believe was a lot for me. Wow! I said to myself EBay does work. My listing was well described and i did receive request buy it now, more pictures please, and performance detail of the unit. But, this winning bidder didn't ask. I don't know if it makes any difference. I did welcome all buyers to ask me anything relating to my item. Anyway, i just wanted you to know because like i said before i am new to selling on EBay. Well, the FEDEX delivered the box it was well packaged by me. I believe courier did its job professionally but i noticed days have passed more like 10 days and yet i said he either forgot or will give me a feedback when it’s best convenient for him. I am the type of person who wants all to go well. Anyway, the buyer gave a positive feedback. Great i said to myself, he was happy. Finally, i was happy too. Then 3 days later i get a message from buyer that he wants to return it because the item doesn't work and wants to return it. I was distraught because he wants to return it. And, i mention no returns accepted but he is still protected by EBay and PayPal under buyer protection. My only concerns should i say yes return it to me under the condition i send it to you. Again, i did test it and inspected and i have proof with my camera and pictures. Now, the seller after leaving the positive feedback is picking straws from a barrel saying it has wear and tear like some scratches. He even states this was for a friend since he loves this item so much. By the way it is portable Discman equipment which is collectable. This Discman is 20+ years so you know reader. Going back to buyer i requested pictures of which he allegedly says there is wear and tear, and, looking at mine and comparing to him it doesn't add up. However, i did write to him and said, “I am sorry you’re having problems. I sold you a piece of equipment that work on arrival. I am not responsible for what may have occurred after arrival. This piece of equipment as sold to you in as New Other condition is 20+ years old. I cannot guarantee working life of old equipment. Sincerely" I did send him pictures so he can compare even though he didn't request it. Again, i send it so he can look at mine. However, i have yet to hear from him since i last send him my pictures. I can write to him and say, "I reviewed what you sent me and cannot agree with you. I am sorry you are not satisfied." What do you think people? If you were in my shoes what would you do? I am stressing out because it seems buyer is calling me a liar. But i did all a woman can give for this buyer. I am only afraid if there's dispute and they favor the seller because i have nobody on my side. I hope there’s seller protection. I always heard that EBay and PayPal favor the buyer most of the time. You see i cannot accept the merchandise because i don't know what went wrong. If he says it doesn't work then i cannot sell it again on EBay as working condition. I still cannot understand why then a positive feedback. Well, this story. I wanted to share. I really appreciate your response and concerns with me. And, i hope that your answers or response can help a nice woman which i believe that honesty is very important in the first place. Ok, i hope to hear from you and i can't wait to hear your opinions. Thank you very much. Sincerely, more

Resolved Question: Silent Hill: Downpour vs Silent Hill HD Collection?

I asked this question before, but I got the worst answer possible. Which game should I get? Please just tell me which one to get based on what I say. I don't like fixed camera views. It often will get stuck or not let me see enemies. I like a good, and limited to add more to the survival aspect, inventory system. I really like games that make me sh*t my pants, bu I do like survival more than horror. I don't care about graphics or sound. I also don't care about price, so compare the games as if I will get one for free. I don't care about reviews, either. This is for the xbox 360. And, oh, I like games that are more open. Thanks! Please, no bias answers. OH! I need a game that will last me a while, cause it is rare when I can get a new game! more

Resolved Question: Did I over react, or am I lucky I found out?

I've been talking to this great guy that I met on an online dating for over a month now and started to really like the guy. He as been divorced for 6 months and lives out of state, but I am from his hometown that he is moving back to soon. We went to the same high school but were years apart. At present he is on the other side of the country, so we just talked on Facebook because the phone bill would be too high and after adding I noticed something weird on his profile. He is into this YouTube channel that posts crappy music videos and does reviews on video games at times. Not a problem right? Well, the part that makes me uncomfortable is the fact that there is a twenty-something with a chest bigger than a p*rn stars and posts the stuff on Facebook. I freaked out and googled the guy and found a link with he and his ex on it and then I googled her. His ex (that cheated on him and left him) looks just like this girl! They have the same hair color, body type, eye color, and are almost the same height. The only difference between his ex and the girl in the video is the facial bone structure. This was too weird. Plus, half the videos have camera angles that constant zoom in on her extremely low neckline. I am in great shape but am bottom heavy. I am the exact opposite of this. I didn't want to keep this from him, so I immediately messaged him back and told him what I did and how I found his ex's myspace. I even explained how the video freaked me out and I felt like I was being compared. He messaged back and said it was weird and he didn't know what to think of it. It's been days and he hasn't messaged me back, but he also didn't get rid of me as a contact. Did I over-react? Should I have been worried? Or, do you think he just wants to see if there are other girls out there now? more

Resolved Question: Canon SX40HS or Sony HX100V?

I have been reading hundreds of reviews, watching countless videos, and testing out the cameras at Best Buy. The time has come ! I am buying one of 2 because they are the best in their class. BUT my here is my problem :( I like the Canon SX40 for its 35x zoom, better image quality, long battery life, slow motion video recording. I am hesitating because it does not have panoramic shooting mode, it also has a very low resolution screen. These are the only two items I wish it had. I want the Sony because it has a higher resolution screen, and panoramic mode. But i dont like it for squeezing so many pixels on a tiny sensor 16mp compared to Canon's 12mp. Also zoom is important to me. Both cameras are so close to meeting all of my needs. But i just can't decide. Need some expert advice here please help :) thank you more

Voting Question: No-data verizon phones?

I currently have a Samsung Intensity 2, and though I don't get my free upgrade for a year, I am ready fro a new phone. I text a lot, and would prefer either a full physical qwerty keyboard or a VERY good on screen keyboard (comparing to iPhone). I also take a lot of picture, however a high mp camera is not important, it just needs to have a video camera. Going 3 years without one has made that a requirement for me. I would like it to be a decent phone. It can't be a phone that requires a data package, which makes this difficult, I know. I am considering the Samsung Reality, however reviews on that aren't great, so if you have an opinion on that I'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance for your help!I already have an iPod touch, however I need something I can use outside of wifi areas as well. And the Extravert looks good, however I know from experience that it is not the most reliable. THank you for that suggestion though. Might just be waiting for a little while longer.. more

Voting Question: Is the Canon EF20mm f/2.8 wider than the kit lens?

I'm a bit confused. I understand a bit how focal lengths work, but I'm using old film gear and looking to switch over to digital for some stuff. The kit lens that comes with the Rebel series is a 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 (http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/products/cameras/ef_lens_lineup/ef_s_18_55mm_f_3_5_5_6_is_ii#Specifications), but it says it's on a lot of sites it says that "the focal length is equivalent to approx. 28-90mm in 35mm format." The EF 20mm f/2.8 (http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/products/cameras/ef_lens_lineup/ef_20mm_f_2_8_usm#Specifications) is considered a "super wide" by many review sites, but I'm not sure which focal length to compare it to, the actual or the "equivalent."

I do fire tricks, more specifically fire devilsticks and staffs. I'm a lot better at the devilsticks and no one has seen me do the staffs yet but my friends say I'm alright at it but they have only seen the fire knives on youtube where they have been practising for years so I look pretty terrible compared to them, I've been practising for 3 years but wanted outside opinion. One video is a contest I entered last year and the second is one at my friends new year party (hence shaky camera and short length) please tell me how bad I compared to normal :/ vid 1- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zkbf4-t35D4&feature=g-upl&context=G2908c3fAUAAAAAAADAA vid 2- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kY9lcgmlbOE&feature=g-upl&context=G2c51f8aAUAAAAAAAAAA thank you ;)sorry about my English more

Resolved Question: People who actually have the Kindle Fire? I have a couple questions?

Ok so I've seen a lot of comparing to the Ipad.. I know it's not supposed to be and Ipad or really anything near it. I just want some info from people who really have it and not just random reviews? How fast is the internet on it? Please make sure you have a good wifi connection before answering that, I know some people with the cheapest possible wifi and complain how their electronics are slow when really its the internet. Does it have a camera? Over all is it worth the money for it? I wouldn't be getting it for being an e reader. Online books hurt my eyes lol I basically want the ipad and tho I'm not expecting it to be exactly like that, I want something similar. I don't want it for videos, or apps. I want to be able to go on Facebook, youtube every now and then, check my Bank account online, all that lol Apple is a good product. I can pay my bills on safari from my ipod touch alone. However regardless of good product, they are way over priced. I feel stupid for having spent the $300 on my ipod touch.. My laptop was cheaper than that. more

Resolved Question: Need help deciding which lenses I want!?

Okay, where do I begin? So I 'recently' purchased the Canon EOS 60D with the 18-55mm Kit Lens. Soon after this I went on a holiday to Malaysia and without much knowledge on lenses at this time bought the Sigma 75-300mm Macro lens for about AU$200 thinking this was a good deal... Turns out, this is the average price for the lens here in Australia also... Damnit. Anyway, so that's where I'm at right now with the camera equipment that I own. I'm looking to get a little more serious with my lenses and am currently on the hunt for a better collection. Originally I set out to buy a Canon 50mm prime lens and of course initially looked at the f/1.8 due to how cheap it was! After consideration I decided if I'm going to buy lenses I'm going to do it right. So I decided to look at the better quality 50mm f/1.4 and have now decided this is the lens for me, yay, easy! No. I began researching into this lens and suddenly complication struck and I'm now faced with the decision of the Sigma 50mm f/1.4 or the Canon 50mm f/1.4! I've been looking at reviews, comparisons, YouTube videos, EVERYTHING; ITS BEEN DRIVING ME INSANE I JUST CANT MAKE A DECISION! I went into JB HI FI today and looked at the two lenses so I could really compare it for myself... I still can't make a decision. They were both equally priced and are both equally well-built, great lenses. But I've read reviews that say the Sigma is better than the Canon and other reviews saying that the Sigma can sometimes have focusing issues (which was true in one comparison I viewed that offered photos confirming this). Personally, I like the look of the Sigma better and the fact that it comes with a hood (Threes something about hoods.. they just look super cool and stupidly make me want the lens for that reason). So I'm really in a bit of a pickle dick! (Fun with Dick and Jane reference.. great movie.) Someone just tell me which one to get, PLEASE! I BEG YOU! And why of course... Okay. Here we go again. So I'm regretting buying the Sigma 75-300mm Macro lens; I mean its a pretty good lens and the photo quality is quite nice but it really is just a cheap lens and eventually I'd really just like to have a bag of good quality lenses. I'm not talking about $1000 for a single lens, but I'm not saying $200 for it either... Is there another lens someone could suggest to replace it? I think I would prefer that it's a Canon lens. (As a side note, this is another reason why I would want the Canon 50mm f/1.4, to try and produce a collection of pure Canon equipment... threes some physiological thing in me telling me that's what I want for some reason, yet I still can't make a decision.) The range doesn't necessarily have to go all the way up to 300mm but I wouldn't want the Canon 55-250mm either, it's kind of average... Any suggestions here? ALSO, a little thing, it would be great if it could be image stabilized or perhaps USM or both but either or Last of all! So the 18-55mm is a pretty good lens, being the kit lens that it is, however I'm looking to buy something better and perhaps replacing that. What are your thoughts on getting the Canon 18-135mm. A couple of people I know have this lens and feel its a really good, solid, quality lens. I like the range that it offers and think that if I'm going to get this lens I might as well sell my 18-55mm kit lens to cover some of the cost. Yay or nay? I've looked at the Canon 28-135mm also. Two things about this. 1. Its USM, which is enticing.. 2. If I was to get this, I wouldn't be able to sell the 18-55 as I'd lose out on that wide-angle freedom... AH! Anyway! If you've made it this far through all of this; Thank you. Please help me out I'm kind of desperate. Just to sum things up, I'll write what I have already and what I want to have instead. :) Have: Canon EOS 60D Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Sigma 75-300mm f/4-5.6 DG Macro Want and/or to Replace: Canon 50mm f/1.4 OR Sigma 50mm f/1.4 Canon EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS (to replace Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS) OR Canon 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM (not to replace Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS) (Undecided Zoom Lens) to replace Sigma 75-300mm f/4-5.6 DG Macro ALRIGHT I hope you've enjoyed reading my book as my as I have somewhat enjoyed writing it...

Resolved Question: What DSLR cameras should I compare/review?

I'm planning on buying a DSLR soon. I've read a lot of articles and tutorials online for a while now,but its time for me to have a hands-on experience while learning.

Resolved Question: Please compare the Nikon D5100 vs Sony NEX-5 NDB?

I want to buy my fiance a decent camera for Christmas and am dithering between these two models. I like the fact that the Sony is smaller and has inbuilt 'photo stitch', but the clicking sound on video concerns me. The Nikon seems to get overall better reviews. He'll primarily be using it for photography, but some recording is necessary. Please can anyone who's used either or preferably both cameras help me decide? Thank you!I know I probably should let him choose, but really would like it to be a surprise! Again, it seems that you slightly prefer the Nikon? Every review I've ever read seems to recommend the Nikon, but the guy in the camera shop I spoke to said he would recommend the Sony (greater commission maybe??). Alternatively it could just be that Sony is a newer product so there are less reviews around. more

Resolved Question: Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0 vs iPod Touch 4th Generation?

I've been trying to compare these two products for so long now, and I just can't seem to come up with an answer as to which is better. I've found mixed reviews, some saying the Samsung is better, and some saying the iPod is still the best. What I like about the galaxy: Has a slightly bigger screen, which makes it better for web browsing. Faster CPU SD card slot Replaceable battery Better camera FM radio What I like about the iPod: Better screen Thin, sleek, and good looking More app support (does anyone think that the Android Market will eventually become just as good as iTunes?) I want the device that has a long lasting battery, can easily browse the web without quickly killing the battery, has a good variety of games to play on it (apps), and will just satisfy me as my little portable media player/web browser. I would really appreciate help here. Both seem good, but I just can't come to the conclusion that one is better than the other. No Apple fanboys please. more

Resolved Question: Canon EOS 500D vs Nikon D3100?

Now I'm having a hard time fighting between these two as a first DSLR camera. Watching several reviews, and test videos. I find myself stuck, because neither reviews show any or much difference from both cameras. I understand that the 500D is a little bit more, but it's not a significant big deal for me. I'm typically a more Canon user, so I'll ask some important questions to get this figured out. Who has better lenses Canon or Nikon? I'm serious about both video, and picture quality. So which one qualifies my needs? I understand the 500D uses 20fps, but compared to the D3100 video focus(which isn't that amazing in my opinion). Are either that much of a problem? Should I consider Nikon's D3100 advantage in higher shutter speed, and ISO? Is the D3100's focus point advantage much of a difference? That's all I can come up with, and I know theirs more. What do you guys think? more

Resolved Question: New leapster explorer ipad vs. the leapster explorer, which is better?

My children are ages 6,5, 4 and 3. I want something educational and that at least the 4, 5, and 6 year old can use.

I also seen that the same games for the explorer you can use for the ipad.... I want something that will have the most options to do ( educational games, camera, video...etc.) But i am unsure of hidden costs. I have never bought game systems for my children so this will be their first. If anyone has any info on either of these systems, please help!! Im trying to decide so i know what to do for christmas.

Resolved Question: My best pick for a smartphone?

Hi, guys! I had enough of my LG Viewty KU990... It served its purpose, but recently I found it very lacking, since my preferences and needs changed/evolved... My reason for buying it 3 years ago lied in the fact that I wanted a phone that can shoot relatively good photos and video... Its 5MP camera wasn't too bad... But, during the last year I figured out I was missing a lot, because it didn't have WiFi connectivity, there is no type of navigation options and Internet access over 3G is a nightmare for this phone... So, I want to buy a new phone, a smarter one... For the last few weeks I roamed the stores, played with different models and compared hundreds of both expert and user reviews.... Still, I am puzzled quite a bit... These are my questions/concerns: 1. Android, WP 7 (or the upcoming 7.5/Mango), Symbian (most notably this years Nokia X7)>>> I know Android wins in most fields... still, is WP 7 so bad? My only gripe with it is the lack of support for external memory cards... 2. I believe I only want one(s) with Gorilla glass screen, since the normal ones get scratched easily. Is there a third option? 3. Which OS has the best option for viewing text documents, PDF files and supports the latest Flash the most? 4. I would prefer one with 8 megapixel, but 5MP would do if the phone had HiDef movie recording capable (720p is ok) camera. 5. I need a stable system, one that can link to the PC via Bluetooth, or cable,and one that hopefully doesn't get problem when updated... If I decide to go for a smartphone on Android 2.2 Froyo, and then update it to 2.3 Gingerbread, will it more, or less painless transition? 6. Battery life> One day lasting battery with phone being mostly on standby, with maybe occasional snapshots, 10 min video, 30 min talk time, and, lets say, 30 min gps/navigation on, plus checking some websites during 20 min, or so... I read all these expert reviews and when I see that some wonderful phones with superb hardware and software performance get lousy 7 hours of operation, I am just appalled... I will charge the phone overnight, or in the car, but would hate to have it die on me, while I'm in London looking for that bar, where a girl is waiting for me... 7. I don't mind weight, or size... However, it would need to be candy style, no slider... 8. I know iPhone market has the most apps, but I don't think the number is important that much, but rather usability, real life application and practicality... As of now, I can only think of apps for navigation/gps, those one for searching for cinema/bar/shops in English/European cities, some simple word/PDF editors/readers, and of course SKYPE app (possibly video chat)... I hope either Android, or the upcoming Mango will able to provide that... I need to find some hardcore Symbian forum to ask them about their apps... 9. While price isn't important, I wouldn't go over 350 British pounds/500 US dollars... Maybe, if I could 100% say "OK, this phone stays with me for the nest 4 years!" But, I have a feeling that with these phones today I will look to replace them with something in autumn 2012. Any thoughts on the matter? more

Resolved Question: Interweb Cameras-Help Seeking?

So I just downloaded skype onto my computer yesterday and I wanted to buy a new webcam. I understand that I can't pay a meager price for a great quality webcam, but I don't want to find myself paying nearly a hundred dollars for a piece of junk webcam. On the bestbuy customer reviews page, this guy with a podcast, GFQ, compared the logitech 9000 to the microsoft life cam and said that the lifecam is better.

Resolved Question: Canon 7D vs Nikon D7000. Please help, I'm getting it today!!?

OK, I'm getting it today at comex for my brother, is the first and only decent gift he will get from me probably in a life time so please, help me take the right desicion: Canon 7D Kit II (EF S15-85 IS USM) for $3,399sgd vs. Nikon 7000 Kit with AF-S DX Nikkor 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR for $2,149sgd Both come with a bunch of cool gifts. Now there's lotsa reviews online leaning towards the D7000 but they compare just the bodies, consider I am buying the kit so the quality of the lenses are important to me as well. He specifically asked for a Canon 7D but the reason I was given was "because is cooler" I have to add my bro knows f*ck all about cameras as well, he is just starting so although the 7D is on my budget I am not an idiot so if the D7000 is a better buy I'll just go for that. And if the 7000D is better I also wonder why is it that is so much cheaper, is it because the lens that come in the kit is not as good? I think thats my main question. Thanks in advance :D more
