does he want to take videos or still pictures?
I use a Canon A610 to do video..... take the video at 640x480 15fps AVI. Using Ulead video studio 9.0, I could make MPEG2 video for dvd viewing..... Hope this helps.
half half.. think more of pictures :think:
but he wanted it to be small, so I thought not many can satisfy
btw my Canon IXUS 800IS takes nice videos under nice lighting conditions
Hi diver-hloc,
how long can the A610 shoot movie? or is it limited only by memory space?
coz I think it's quite important
diver-hloc, just one more question
can u do optical zooming in movie mode?
THe Canon S2/S3/S5 IS can zoom in video mode and the sound is stereo.No.... only digital zoom. Don't think most model can do optical zoom. Not so sure about the A640. Can only confirm my A610 can't. Remember that alot of the cameras in the market use a difference compression method for their video - quicktime, AVI.... etc - Only a few video editing software can handle quicktime..... most could do AVI. And I must add that Canon AVI compression might take up alot of memory..... but the video looks good. Sound wise, only mono for A610 & A640. The S serise like - S2 IS, S3 IS or the new S5 IS will have stero sound.
Going to work soon..... Hope this helps......
