<p>I want a digital camera for Christmas. Anyone have any advice as to which one I should ask for?</p>
<p>vx1000 or vx2100.</p>
<p>I have a Canon PowerShot SD990 I.S. fully equipped w/ 14.7 megapixel ELPH and a 2.5 inch LCD. I highly reccomend it.</p>
<p>NO.</p>
<p>get a used DSLR.</p>
<p>ok, i currently use a Nikon D200, with the following lenses:</p>
<p>Nikon f/1.8 50mm
Nikkor f/3.5-4.5 18-70mm
Nikkor f/4-5.6G 70-300mm</p>
<p>you should really find a DSLR.</p>
<p>^ DSLR’s aren’t really portable.</p>
<p>ok…</p>
<p>OP, what do you normally shoot?</p>

<p>Canon PowerShot SD series is nice… I use one with 10MP and 5x optical zoom (WOO). You really don’t need infinite megapixels, 10 is enough. The macro mode will make you FEEL LIKE A PRO!</p>
<p>Fujifilm Finepix F70EXR is also really nice looking, I’m probably going to get it soon. 10MP and 10x optical zoom!! Not enough to pick a grain of sand off an eagle’s beak at 300 yards but really good nonetheless. Both cameras are around $200. The Fujifilm has fell $20 on amazon over the last 2 weeks… a pretty good deal.</p>
<p>for pocket shoooters, I personally recommend the little canon powershots. </p>
<p>for dslr’s, I dunno… reallly…either canon or nikon…</p>
<p>I don’t really want a DSLR. I’m looking for something that is pretty portable. I’m not gonna be taking professional shots or anything like that.</p>
