hi guys.. need some input on the best type of AAA batteries for a high power using digi cam. my girlfriend gave me a vivitar 9.9 megapix vivicam 3799xi.. any inputs? thanks.

 

The Best rechargeable batteries would be ANSMANN.

 

Bought AAA batteries at Hidalgo, Mayer store.

 

P120 per piece I believe. Mahal sa mga Malls eh.

 

Buy the 1000 mah or the 900 mah.

mga ka-tropa newbie here sa digicams hehehe .

 

ano reviews and comments nyo about the sony cyber-shot dsc t100 ?

 

san ko pede bilhin 'to ng mas "reasonable" ang price ?

 

any recommended brands as comparison dito sa model nato ?

 

salamat ng marami .

 

Ok naman ang SONY models, yung T100 yan yung fashion, slim type, PnS camera's.

 

Reasonable price for this would be at Hidalgo, Mayers store.

 

I recommend Canon IXUS 950IS.

Dudes.. I'm planning to purchase a Olympus SP-560 UZ Ultra Zoom Digital Camera.. need your opinions about this product.. thanks..

 

below are its' features:

 

• 8.0-Megapixel Image Sensor for Superior Image Quality

The 8.0-megapixel CCD image sensor inside the SP-560UZ delivers high-quality images that are consistently sharp and vivid even when printed in large-formats.

• 18x Wide-Angle Ultra Zoom Lens Provides Power and Versatility

Experience a new kind of photographic freedom. With a tremendous 18x wide optical zoom (equiv. to 27- 486mm), the SP-560 UZ truly delivers incredible wide and telephoto capabilities. Whether snapping graduates from the back row of an auditorium or capturing the charm of a bird in its natural habitat, this model’s exceptional magnification power takes you further. The teleconverter lens TCON-017 and adapter ring CLA-10 are optionally available for extending the focal range to an astounding 826mm – or touch the sky when used in conjunction with the digital zoom at 4626mm (35mm equivalents). See more at once with a wide-angle view (equiv. to 27mm): Get everybody in the family photo at the next gathering, or finally do those scenic landscapes justice with a broader perspective.

• Dual Image Stabilization

Dual Image Stabilization technology enables users to take crisp, clear pictures in virtually any shooting situation – adjusting for camera shake and a moving subject. Olympus’ Sensor-Shift Image Stabilization keeps images sharp by adjusting the CCD to compensate for camera shake, which often occurs when zooming in on your subject and in low-light conditions when shutter speeds are slower. Digital Image Stabilization freezes the action with high ISO sensitivity and fast shutter speeds that prevent blur caused by a moving subject.

• High-Speed (15 fps) Sequential Shooting & Pre-Capture

Capable of capturing images at an incredible 15 frames per second, the SP-560 UZ offers the highest burst rate of any compact digital camera. The inclusion of Pre-Capture technology, which works in conjunction with High-Speed Sequential Shooting, enables users to capture the action before and after fully pressing the shutter button. Pre-Capture begins working as soon as the focus is locked, automatically archiving five frames in the camera’s buffer memory prior to the shutter release – virtually guaranteeing that none of the action will be missed even if the user’s reaction time is slow. Perfect for situations where timing is essential, such as photographing a tennis player serving, children playing or a whale breaching.

• Sharper Shots with Face Detection and Shadow Adjustment

By integrating Face Detection Technology, the camera can recognize the faces in a scene and adjust for optimal exposure and sharpness. And to ensure that shadowy areas in compositions are brightened, the SP-560 UZ also features Shadow Adjustment Technology.

• 33 Shooting Modes Including TV-Quality Video with Sound

The SP-560 UZ makes it easy to take great photos in a variety of scenarios and lighting situations with 33 shooting modes, including television-quality video with sound (640x480/30fps) up to the capacity of your xD card. Simply select the desired mode for portraits, landscapes, night scenes, fast-action, macro and more.

• TruePic III for High-Speed Response

Olympus’ exclusive TruePic III Image Processor delivers incredible image quality for more true-to-life colors and skin tones as well as faster overall processing speeds for rapid start-up, shutter release and playback. TruePic III ensures a high-speed response so you can capture the shot you want and instantly be ready to shoot again.

• High-Resolution 2.5-Inch LCD & Electronic Viewfinder

Compose and display incredible images on the camera’s bright 230,000-pixel LCD. The high-resolution screen enables you to review pictures, scroll through menu options and treat friends and family to a digital slide show with ease. The SP-560 UZ also features an electronic viewfinder with dioptric correction.

• Bright Capture Technology

There are times when you want to photograph subjects in low light without having to use a flash – such as when trying to capture the softness and warmth of a candlelit dinner or natural skin tones in subdued lighting. Even when it’s too dark to see clearly, Olympus’ revolutionary Bright Capture Technology makes it possible to preview your shot on the LCD, quickly lock the focus and capture your subjects despite limited available light. The SP-560 UZ offers the highest ISO sensitivity of any ultra zoom (ISO 5000).

• In-camera Editing

Enjoy in-camera editing features such as Red-Eye Fix and the ability to add frames and titles, crop, adjust brightness and more – all without using a computer and editing software. Also, the exclusive Lighting Fix feature corrects the underexposed areas in your pictures to reveal the details hidden in the shadows.

• Primed to Shoot the Way You Want

Performance and ease of use go hand in hand with the ergonomically-designed SP-560 UZ. Photographers not only benefit from scene modes that can be selected for use in a diverse range of shooting conditions, various automatic and manual (P/A/S/M) settings are also available. This gives users a handy choice between point-and-shoot ease and full creative control. Furthermore, the Smile Shot scene mode ensures well-timed pictures, since it can detect when a subject smiles and automatically releases the shutter at just the right moment. Dioptric correction makes it possible for those who wear glasses to use the viewfinder, and an optional underwater case PT-037 is available for added fun up to 40m below the water’s surface.

hard to say if it's really worth it since we don't know what you'll be using the camera for (sports? wildlife? family shots?)

the general problem with ultra-zooms with high megapixels (more than 6 megapixels) is the noise. typically, anything over ISO 200 wil get you a grainy image that could be unusable for prints larger than 5x7. best to look for full-size samples on the net. and if you can, try it out at a shop first to see if the auto-focus is fast enough.

i think olympus is using a different lens/mount compared to sony. you might be referring to konica-minolta which sony already acquired.
