Rep Power: 27 | Looks good, I have an old Canon Powershit A30 with 1.2MegaPixels and I'm happy with the quality. I would get some more memory, I hav 128mb and at 1024px it's enough for me.

I know this cam has been sold in thousands in Oslo only ... so I'm pritty certain I'll be happy with it. Btw, do anyone here buy expensive stuff, such as technology from the webshops?? They're so much cheaper than regualr stores, here at least ... (due to that they don't need a "middle"stop, such as stocks ..) haz

Car: 2007 Pontiac G5 GT LFS Status:  Rep Power: 30 | Not too bad, that's a nice little cam for the family and taking pics at christmas... can't expect too much from in though as I'm pretty sure you can't add lenses or even filters on it and does it have a manual mode? I was looking at the P32 when I bought my camera, and as always the Canon optics proved to be superior, and I prefered the ergonomics too.. but well, for the price it doesn't seem too bad. My favorite review site is http://www.imaging-resource.com look at their "ComparoMeter" |

I mostly do party pics with it, never more than 2 Mpix... I can do well over 300 shots all with flash and rechecking them on the screen. I just don't need more right now 8) Still, I would love to have a P150... The objective is really shooting out of it... Hella fast cam... Buba | |
