Whats a good sub $800 digicam ?

[marcwang]

Hie guys,

My brother is looking for a digital camera, sub $800 range, and he is interested in taking up photography. I have long lost touch with the fixed lens digicam scene.... so I need some recommendations. I was thinking abt the Canon S1 with IS. What do u recommend , and why ? I hope to receive unbiased ideas.

THanks man.

eh...try the fuji s5000 or cannon a80 ...

both are pretty good.. can get pretty decent shots with them...not sure about the rest though..coz these are the two i normally see others using...

otherwise...try an olympus...their camedia range comes with a whole load of modes....all automatic of coz...but if u see night mode in the day for example....u can fool the camera into working on slow shutter etc etc....

i'll recomand u fuji 602zoom with ur budget. its a decent camera. you still have a hundred bucks or more to buy acceriosses for ur camera. like flash,filters blah blah..

juz my 2cents
