Good cameras?

Question

I'm looking for a good camera right now. I want it to be a camera that can be good for everyday pictures, but I also go to quite a few concerts, so I want it to be good for that, so preferably it would have a pretty good zoom.
Right now I'm looking at these 4 cameras:
Olympus SP-500 Ultra Zoom
Canon PowerShot SX100 IS
Kodak EasyShare Z612
Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-H1

Are any of these good for what I'm looking for? Which would be the best deal? Or, do you have any other camera suggestions?

Thanks!

Answer 1

I'd go with the Canon SX100 over the others anyday. You can never go wrong with a canon, for the price, that is an awesome camera, I played with it at best buy recently, the only thing I didn't like is that it didn't have a viewfinder, the sony cyber shots are great cameras as well, I wouldn't go with Kodak or Olympus, but that's just my personal opinion. Your best bet is to go and try them for yourself, and see which one you like the best, that fits your needs.

Answer 2

Your new digital camera should have these key features:
• At least a 6MP imaging device for a D-SLR
• At least a 7MP imager for a point-and-shoot
• Optical zoom of 3x, some have 6x...not just a digital zoom
• The highest quality optics
• A large LCD screen; the more pixels doesnt mean the better the quality.6-8 are great unless you want to print garage size images.
• The widest range for aperture (f/stops), shutter speed and ISO
• An AF Illuminator or AF Assist mode for best flash shots in dim light
• A variety of "scene" modes for more convenient shooting in a variety of situations
• Make sure you do your own ergonomic hands-on test
and image stabilizer if possible.
