nikon 3100 should be fundoo .. a nikon 2100 comes for about 9k with the accesories . should be 10k at max .
i ve used a 2100 , works too good with normal daylight , not too good at nite though .But the batts discharge like anything .. run out when u need them the most ..

Heard that digCams require USB ports... My PC little old ... dont know if the motherboard supports USB2.0.. So having second thoughts on buying a digcam... can anyone give a solution to my prob... is there a way of changing USB to serial or parallel port??

cheers

Hi all,

If u r willing to make a very deep search of digicams check out
www.imaging-resource.com
They have taken snaps from each camera and showed it to us, so we can compare..
moreoevr the menu of each camera comes as an animation,, its really cool and detailed resource.. so ttake ur time

According to the chaps at imaging resource (seems to be knowledgeable guys) Canon A70 or A60 and Nikon 3200/3100/2100 are "highly recommended" ..

There is some problem with Sony Cybershot - i dont remember exaclty what.. i heard this from a friend of mine that.. yeah.. the memory upgrades and battery for sony is made by sony only.. and these r pretty expensive.. anyways check this point out..

Picture quality wise ive seen the output of sony - its excellent.. better than fuji and nikon..

regards

Also, How about an OLYMPUS digi - cam ???

Actually, require info for my uncle, who is a doctor .. and would have very
high intensive use of it ... maybe for surgical shots .. presentations etc.

Any info then .. ??
