What camera do you have, and how much was it?

[Toyboyroxhissox]

hiya,
am fed up with my 2megapixel phone, and want a decent camera!
But as my budget is very small, wondered what you lot have, and where you got them from.
And also, When you have a video, when people get stills off them, how do you save them/take them, without them going blurry, ie pausing on mediaplayer? Just wondered how people do it.


thanks in advance.

I got a 10 megapixel pink Samsung Camera from Argos in April for about £100. Total bargain - just a shame I dropped and broke it!!!!

10 megapixel ? WOW!
ahh you must have been gutted!

I have a Canon 350D which cost £370 new 1 year ago, and a Sigma 70-200mm f2.8 zoom lens which is £600 new.

Fuji Finepix S5600 or S5700 is very good if you're on a budget

I bought a Panasonic DMC FZ7 for £120 new on Ebay. Its brilliant - I am so pleased with it and has a multitude of functions and settings that I am still getting to grips with.

I've got an Fuji Finepix S5700, it was a gift so not sure on price but its great!!

If you're on a budget I really would try Argos as they seem to do a great range that are relatively high spec - great for general use. OH's camera is a Canon one that cost a small fortune (for work) and he won't let me anywhere near if after I dropped mine lol. This is the link to my broken camera!

I have a Nikon D200 and all I'll say is it cost more than my horse, before I got a lens for it!! It does take cracking pics though and 18 months on I am still learning how to use it. Now saving for a new lens as the one I have is quite basic and not the best quality.
