What PowerShot camera to buy?

I have today an A2000 IS camera and want to get a new camera that the time between shots is shorter (the time from when I take a picture until I could take the next one).
Would appreciate a few models (not SLRs)

The Canon HV 20 sells for 799.00 at B&H photo in NYC, check their website out , http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=search&A=search&Q=&ci=0&sb=ps& sq=desc&ac=&bsi=&shs=canonhv+20&ci=0&at=BrandCanon&at=Price+800+%3C%3D++%3C%3D999.99

What Video camera to buy?

I am working with a not for profit group who is interested in putting some videos about members of the group as part of telling it's history.
I am considering buying a consumer camera, probably HD, and am wondering which camera's work well in this situation.I suspect that we will also be using some Sony studio camera footage if that makes a difference.
Thanks

I am no expert so I'll just tell you what works for me and what doesn't.
AVCHD as I've experience with my Panasonic HDC-SD9 absolutely *****! There is not better way to put it. The compression fragments are like a JPG compressed to leass than 40%. Also, the video cam ***** for low light, so anything I've done in low light has been unusable between the grain the fragments.
Now, as sad as it is, with my $1000 video camera sitting doing nothing, I have found my new love. My Canon SD960 IS. It does 720P video and it is nice. I've watched it directly off the camera on a 52" LCD and it was very nice. I'm guess that for what you are doing this might be a good choice. Not only does this camera do great video, it aslo take great pictures! After all, it's a camera that takes video, not the other way around.
Seriously, video on these devices (cameras) has gotten really good for general consumer use and it works for me for the most important thing in my life, my daughter (16 months now).
Do youself a favor and avoid AVCHD like the plague!
I won't even go into the nightmare I had editing, or even getting a computer good enough to edit AVCHD.
Curse Panasonic Video and HP Computer hardware. Curse you both!

What HD camera to buy?

I've got a school play that I'm filming for the music department and I'm interested in upgrading my Main camera, I'm needing help picking a camera that is vastly better than my FlipHD's but still affordable. I'm looking at max price of $500-$600, but cheaper (without sacraficing a lot of quality) would be better.
Last year my FlipHD cameras were okay, but nothing spectacular.I sold Standard Definiton DVDs so the quality wasn't great anyway, but now I'm looking at selling Bluray High Definition discs too so I need to up my game a little. I've posted a picture of what my Main FlipHD did at the play.
So far, I'm looking at the M500 or the M50, but other suggestions welcome.
Screencap: in 1280x720 resolution.

Hi In4longhaul,
The VIXIA HF M50 and VIXIA HF M500 are vary nice camcorders and should provide years of reliable service.
With a maximum F/Stop range f/1.8-3.0, the camcorders should be able to capture the plays nicely.

What camera to buy for taking close pictures of coins in mint state condition????

hi
what camera to buy for taking close pictures of coins in mint state condition????uncirculated coins ??

BetterWay wrote:
The camera is not so much of an issue here as making sure that you get the right glass(lens) .
Both Nikon and Canon have specialty lenses to allow Macro (1:1 or lifesize or greater magnification) images to be made.
I would also recommend that you get a good tripod and focusing rails to mount your camera on as most macro photography is best done using manual focus and moving the camera. This is due to the fact that macro lenses have a very shallow depth of field.
If you don't want to go to this extreme, then at least get a small sturdy tripod and always use a remote shutter release.
All of this is related to DSLR's.
If you want to go the PnS route, then look for one that emphasizes its macro capability and again, use a tripod. Again, the lens is the most important item here.
Actually, no - lens is not the most important - coins are highly reflective and as a result VERY difficult to light properly - the lighting equipment is going to be the most important.
Lens will be second most important - you can probably do fine for coin photography with one of the common pseudo-macro lenses that only do 1:2 and not 1:1. However a true 1:1 macro lens will give you the most flexibility.
Since the lighting equipment is the most important, the key here is going to be that the camera has support for an external flash. This is guaranteed for an SLR but rare in P&S cameras.

What Web Cam is compatible with the Mac mini

Hi everyone,
Thinking of buying a Mac mini to use with my Sony TV but I want to connect a web cam also. Does anyone know what web cam works with a Mac mini? Keen to get one but if I cannot find a compatible web cam I don't think I will. I have no wish to buy the apple monitor just for the use of a web cam.

2008 Mac Mini - what webcam can I buy for this computer?????

OMG help me. I have a 2008 Mac Mini - I need to skype and have tried a few webcams that either just don't work or there is no sound - I understand it nees to be the correct kind for mac... so what webcam can I use on this computer I've been researching for days and can't seem to find any definitive answers anywhere online.... what webcam can I buy for a mini mac 2008??

Try this:
http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Widescreen-Calling-Recording-960-000694/dp/B004FH O5Y6
Works for me and Skype, anyway.
The microphone will have to be built-in to the camera and USB-connected - like the one above (and NOT a pink 3.5mm plug!)
You also sure you're selecting the correct audio input on the webcams you've already tried?

Info for requesting geo-tagging for Canon Powershot cameras.

I currently have a Canon powershot which I love, but was hoping to upgrade to a newer model that supported geo-tagging..
I just called Canon customer service and asked if there were any current or future models that would be including this feature..
The rep said he is not given any info on future models but that no current models offered geo-tagging.
He did say that my call would go down as a feature request and if enough people are looking for this feature it will be included soon..
So for what it's worth, if you are interested in requesting this feature, Canon's number is 1-800-652-2666..
I would really like to be able to put places to work without entering manually.

If you have an iPhone, you can use it as a geologger using an app called GeoLogTag. I'm doing this for a couple weeks now and it works great. The app exports GPX files, that can be used with geotagging apps like HoudahGeo.
With this workflow, you can keep you current Canon Powershot camera, if you have an iPhone 3G of course.
Another feature of GeoLogTag (off-topic now) is that it can geotag Flickr photos directly from within the app, which is pretty cool!

What video cameras are compatible with Final Cut Express?

I live in Japan and was thinking of buying a Victor " Full High Definition" video camera (1920x1080). The only thing I was warned about by the salesperson is that unless I have a Blue-Ray DVD recorder/player, I will never be able to enjoy true Full HD after burning my video to a DVD. I guess regular DVD recorders/players can't support it yet.
I have searched to find a page that tells me what video camera is compatible with my iMac G5, but no luck. Any ideas on how to find out before buying a video camera? I would appreciate anyone's advice.
Thanks, Larry in Japan

You want to stay away from recordable-DVD and hard-disk camcorders,

Hope you don't mind me asking why? - As long as they've got a F/W connector how does the source media make any difference? - In fact, I would think that shuttling around would be faster with HD's or DVD's.....
I also believe the salesperson was trying to say that he's going to need a BluRay deck in order to be able to view his HD material on an appropriately equipped TV - Which is correct, no?
Thanks in advance for any comments,
Cheers,

What Video Camera?

Hi. Im planning on buying my first own video camera and also im planning on buying Express next month because i heard its more for beginners. Anyways i was wondering what video camera has really good quality. What I like to film is just daily life with my family and friends. I love being able to watch something later down the road and i want to be able to have a good image of that when it happens. Ive always been raised in a home of Sony products so thats pretty much all I know. (Im 20 by the way). But I was wanting to be open minded with my first video camera purchase and see what else is out there besides Sony. I was reffered already to get a min-DV camera. So I narrowed it down to 2 Sony ones.
These are the 2 and also I was wondering why such a big price difference of $250?

What other video cams do you guys suggest? My range is up to $650. Please help me out so I dont make a mistake on which to buy. Also please dont get in a fight over which is better. If you have a different suggestion than someone else let me know why you do also. Thanks for your time.

Hello dietwater5,
the biggest difference between the HC-48 and the HC-96 is the size of the CCD, which in the end translates as picture quality. Another feature is the A/Vin of the HC-96, which makes it possible to capture video from analog sources.
In the price range you're targeting, I personally would try and see if I could get a good offer on a Panasonic PV-GS300 or PV-GS500. These camcorders come with 3 CCDs and offer very good image quality.
hope this helps

Recommend PowerShot camera for mom

I am looking to get a PowerShot camera for my mom, about 100 bucks.
Requirements:
AA Battery's (or non standard battery's you buy in the store)
Large LCD viewing screen.
SD memory card.
Simple usage
I want to have AA battery's as I do NOT think that she would remember to buy another battery. I can / will buy a canon battery for her, but I am trying to think of the REALITY of the situation, she will probably forget it, etc.
I was looking at the one below, and it seemed to be nice, and around 100 bucks. I am open to suggestions / recommendations, etc.! Just saw this and seemed nice.
Canon PowerShot ELPH 330 HS Digital Camera (Silver)
Her camera style "ok everyone, get together....closer...come on...like you love each other...perfect" click! That's it.
She just loves to capture the moment. Yes, a camera phone would work for her, but NO smartphone!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

MLCarter1976,
The ELPH camera you are suggesting is an excellent camera choice for capturing the moment. However, you mentioned that you want AA batteries, and the ELPH line of cameras use rechargeable lithium battery packs. The Canon PowerShot A1400 uses AA batteries, and costs about $84.00 from B&H. There are not many Canon cameras that use AA batteries anymore, even under $100.00. The LCD screen is a little smaller than the ELPH screen since the A1400 includes a viewfinder. The picture quality is also not quite as nice as the ELPH series, but under most normal conditions the photos will be fine. Low light will require using the flash.
If you do go with a camera that uses AA batteries, I would strongly recommend getting some top line rechargeable NiMH batteries or better since these cameras will go through even the expensive AA batteries rather quickly. One other thing is that all Canon cameras do not come with built in memory, so you will need to purchase an SD memory card.
Good luck on the camera search.

What computer should I buy for ID5.5?

I have an opportunity to do some work-at-home design using Indesign. The computer I'm using is a tired old PC. Dual 1.8 GHZ, 2 GB RAM.
It runs it but it's not fast.
Any advice on specific machines? I need to keep it under $1K so Mac Pro is out. But how are the minis?
I'm not counting out a new PC either. Just don't know what's good for this work.
I won't be running Photoshop much, maybe a touchup here and there and a little illustration art. But mainly just layout of magazines, newsletters, etc.
Thanks for all input!

5.5 wont be supported if you buy a new mac, and they all come with Yosemite now, and you CAN NOT DOWNGRADE ANY MAC to any OS lower than what it came out of the box with: it will come with Yosemite and that is your only option unless something NEWER comes along, but Macs are UPGRADE ONLY unless you want to break the warranty and hack the API (you can't just stick a disk in there and say "go ahead, I don't care"
Some users are having no issues with Yosemite and CS5.5, however I'm in a dual production crisis with ID5.5 on Yosemite vs ID5.5 on Mavericks on new i7 iMacs I've been supplying to a company. The resize in ID5.5 and Yosemite is so slow it hangs 3 different systems running Yosemite where they become unresponsive for about 10 minutes while the screen refreshes, but that behavior doesn't exist on the systems running Mavericks using the same files. I am looking at either returning those macs or offloading production to other systems but CC is far less of an option than virtualizing Win XP on those macs at this point.
