hi,
i am looking for a DOWNGRADE! using an A80 now, but cos i will be buying a D70 soon, i plan to sell my A80 and get a compact cam(something that i can bring about and basically just shoot for fun)
because i will only develop till 5R max. i dun need anything above 4MP,even 3.2 is ok, though i would prefer 4MP
here are my considerations :
1. <$500
2. video recording with sound(limited by card size, not limited only to 3mins like most canon models)
3. slim and compact
4. flash
5. reasonably long batt life
basically i have looked at some models but i am not sure of the picture quality. so pls advise or suggest others
1. Pentax Optio S40 (guy at cathay said pic quality so so only, and made in philippines)
2. Canon 430 (limited to 3mins video only)
3. Nikon 4200 (he told me limited video oso)
pls help, thanks!
