Camera question
Okay,
I need to buy a digital camera or cam corder. Any body know what to look for? I believe you can get stills from the camcorder. If thats the case I would go for the extra bucks for that.
Thanks for the help.

Zoom lens
Jennifer,
If you would, please find out if any manufacturers are coming out with a digital that has a better than 10x optical zoom.
I have a Olympus C 2100 with a 10 X optical but would really like one to go up to 20X optical.
Thanks

I use a Olympus e-10. Half the price of the D-1 body alone and does enough for me. 4MP. Can't change the lense but has good zoom quality and 2 add on telephoto lenses. I'm happy with the decision. When they get the d-1 down to a sane price I might bite.
I still have my Nikon FE if I need more

Canon Elura40MC is a good small MiniDV camcorder that will take stills at 1024x768.
Sony PC120 is similar but higher res stills, costs more, and is a little larger.
Both are gooduns if you need primarily a camcorder but want to get stills too.
Lots of the digi still cams can also record a couple of minutes of video if you need primarily a still cam but want some vid ability.

I NEED ADVICE - PLEASE.
I just got a call from a gentleman that wants to donate a camera - the Nikon DS1 or 4 to www.PowerboatingCharities.com so that I can get pictures to promote the web site.
I can't do this. I can't on behalf of myself accept such a gift. However, I know what it can do.
He said that his corporation would own the camera and I could use it? I don't understand, and I broke my Minolta 7000i at the NY run.
What do I do? I'm just trying to earn a pair of wings here...
