I want to get a digital camera and would like it small but with a good zoom and stablization. You not going to find it smaller. That's the smallest I've seen with big zoom and stabilzation. Usually they are A LOT LARGER like SLRS
I saw one the first time the other day and IT's amazing and low cost. It's a good value and a good brand.
It's EASILY easy as good as the Sony H2 or Kodak 712 and they are twice the size. by a good zoom you mean at least 6x optical possibly you might consider the canon s3is it has 12x optical and a rotatiting screen as well or the lumix fz7 or fz8. for that matter even the s10 by nikon or the tz1 by lumix as well.[these last two are about as small as the 710is. |
