Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Arthritis / December 2005OTP I bought a new camera
I had to. I just couldn't help myself. And, every time I think of photography and new cameras, I remember Paul Rad and his influence on my first digitgal camera purchase. Paul, if you're up in some heavenly place looking down on me, I hope you're smiling and recognize my eternal gratitude to you. My new camera is a Panasonic Lumix FZ30. It's a honkin' great digital camera, which is reviewed here http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/panasonicfz30/ I don't have it yet, but expect that it will be delivered tomorrow or tuesday, as I mail ordered it from amazon.com. So, get ready, and expect a new wave of image postings. Color me impatient and chomping at the bit. :-)  SignatureDi zinkadoodle at gmail dot com www.pbase.com/di www.dustydoggie.blogspot.com > I had to. I just couldn't help myself.

I am always envious of the cheaper items like this in the US. I see that the US street prices are $590 (=UKPounds 343.00) and the UK price is UKP 480.00 (=$825.00). They call it rip off Britain and it is as far as this sort of thing is concerned. Have fun and take some nice pics.

Especially with Australian branches of multinationals only offering local warranty if you buy through their Australian branch, which often charges 100% more than their prices elsewhere! :-( *pout* Cheers, Ari Signaturespammage trappage: remove the underscores to reply I'm going to die rather sooner than I'd like.

I have a fairly low end Lumix. Right before I was leaving on vacation a few years ago, my old Olympus digital failed. I was already to buy another one, as I liked it so much, but didn't have time for mail order. So I went to Circuit City instead. Since I was there, I tried out all the cameras in the same price range, and liked the Lumix *much* better. The menu controls are far more intuitive. With the Olympus, I had to check the manual every time I wanted to switch white balance (sun to shade to incandescent). No more. I *love* my Lumix.

And it's going to be so nice to not to have to pay film processing costs! Carole > I had to. I just couldn't help myself.

Color me > impatient and chomping at the bit. :-) Looks like a camera you are definately going to enjoy using. I finally broke down and purchased a good digital last summer that I'm still learning how to use. I share it with my son who learned during photo in high school how to use it but doesn't have time to teach Mom! LOL I have a Canon Rebel XT EOS. It came with free classes I'm hoping to get well enough to take soon. Enjoy! DianeW |
