You are probably so sick of me.. - YorkieTalk.com Forums

KiKiPie · 10-26-2008, 02:24 PM

And hearing about me trying to find a good camera. I recently bought the canon xs110 (I think thats it!) The guy at best buy told me that it is a step up from the point and shoot cameras but not quite the slr. He had said the picture quality would be MUCH better than ANY point and shoot..
Well, it not!

Lol! And its a lot bulkier than a compact camera, so I would rather have a smaller one that is the same quality than carry around that bulky thing. So back to the drawing board! Maybe I will try the sony with the touch screen? I love to take pictures so its frustrating trying to find a good camera.
Any advise, please let me know!

I've been through the camera thing. I'm most happy with the Sony Cybershot digital cams and the Kodak Easyshare. We have one of each. We did our wedding pictures with the Kodak and they were awesome!

Sorry bout your camera luck! After shopping around for awhile this spring for a camera, every place I went to agreed that Canon is the way to go. So thats what I got, and I am so glad I did. It isn't tiny and flat like some other cameras, but the pic quality is so much better, although I am sure it could be better if I actually read the manual and used it like I am supposed to! I have never wanted a tiny camera though, I just don't think they would do the job!

Maybe try going to a camera store where the salespeople may know more than Best Buy. I want one that doesn't give red eyes to all of my dogs eyes. I get so few good pics because of that. If you fine one let us know. And we will never get sick of you, I am so glad you are back posting!!!

Oh girl I am so sorry that you are not happy with your new camera

I am still loving mine...lol...so I thought I would upload a few pictures that I took with it so that you can see the clarity that it has - well I think so anyway

Of course I had to re-size them...so they look even better when at the original size.

These pictures I took from very far away - they were taken at full zoom (except the bed - I did zoom in on it, but not fully). I love the bright, vivid colors it captures - they are very "true"

Good luck with whatever camera you choose girl!

You need to PM Tumismom and ask her what camera she has. Look at some of her pics... Their camera ROCKS!

KiKiPie · 10-26-2008, 06:57 PM

You guys are SO sweet! Im not good with all the camera lingo so I sound like a total idiot when I go to the store to look for one! LOL! Ya'll are great though! I keep trying to research but since I have no clue about the different terms and stuff, I don't think its doing any good! I will just keep buying and returning until I get a good one I can understand and use!

Yes, that is my oldest daughter, #4 of the 6 kiddos. Thank you so much! She is quite a blessing to us! We found out she has Complete Congenital Heart Block when I was about 21 weeks pregnant with her, and she has been my heart ever since. She will be 6 next month.
My friend and I have our own business, so I am always taking cute pics of my girls!!
