It goes with me everywhere and I have taken abt. 7000 photos in a year. All my photos in www.lumolifestyle.blogspot.com are taken with our Lumix.<br /><br />Love the 12 x zoom and macro zoom. Very low light photos (restaurant photos etc.) could be a bit better, but I think I would need a system camera for them and prefer a pocket size camera.Tuuli - Lumo Lifestylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13017668562075488897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2316982590799687503.post-80508918813974665432010-05-23T14:59:28.064+10:002010-05-23T14:59:28.064+10:00Well, first, please let me say, please have a look...Well, first, please let me say, please have a look at:<br />Your Camera Doesn't Matter by Ken Rockwell:<br />http://www.kenrockwell.com/tech/notcamera.htm<br />And also see why here:<br />http://www.chasejarvis.com/#s=0&mi=2&pt=1&pi=10000&p=5&a=0&at=0<br />This is Chase Jarvis' catalogue of photos taken with his iPhone...how much more handy could you get with that.<br /><br />Having said that, I reckon a nice compact camera would suit you. If you can, get one that has an aperture as wide as at least f/2.8. This should enable you to get nice indoor shots as well as outdoor shots. (It allows more light into the lens.)<br /><br />I'm not really up on compact cameras, so I can't really recommend a specific brand. I have a Canon DSLR, and I've spent quite some time figuring out how it works. I recommend when you get a camera, read the manual from front to back and play, play, play. If you know what your camera can do, you can work around its limitations and enhance its strengths.<br /><br />Well I've rambled on far too much. Hope I've helped a little. :DKelly Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00524955543153050245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2316982590799687503.post-39373859141629596392010-05-22T09:15:04.549+10:002010-05-22T09:15:04.549+10:00Hello!
