Yea its a good idea to watermark them or something to stop people from stealing them! I always fear that!
I totally agree with this. A few years ago I saw my photographs on a website advertising college courses. I confronted them about it and they agreed to acknowledge them. If I had had access to the watermark technology then, it wouldnt have happened. :(
 
Id seriously consider a FUJI FINEPIX S5600 if i were you, its the same price as the kodak*could probably get it cheaper if you looked around* and its a great camera takes awesome pictures.
 
O. K. so the camera is good but it all depends on the one behind it you can have the best that there is but must be able to see beon the camera view
 
i have opened my cards and i definitely have enough for my camera and a case
dont know when im going to buy it though, hopefully soon

I haven't had a chance to check out that particular model but the main advice I have is that you should get out and take as many pictures as possible. Try and experiment with settings, angles, the light, etc. Remember that the pros take thousands of pictures!
 
thanks mate, i am going to practice on the birds that come into my garden and im going to walk up to my local marshes and take some photos there, there are literally thousands of birds there, this is where the zoom will come in handy

I must say I was leaning towards the FUJI FINEPIX S5600, or the Panasonic Lumix DMC-F27 I cant decide. The Panasonic has the anti shake thing but if i understood the reviews it doesn't have as much in the way of auto settings. The FUJI seems to have more auto stuff which mite be better for me since im just getting started with proper photography and probably don't wont to have to fiddle with shutter speeds and things most of the time, but its a bit bulkier and according to the reviews it has a very low resolution LCD screen and view finder.

Does anyone have any experience with ether of them?

Oh yes and merry Christmas everyone :beerchug: .
 
happy christmas which doctor, i am going out tommorow to a few electric stores and a camera shop to see if they have the nikon coolpix s4 for sale, if so i will buy it then
i will post some of my pics taken from the camera and you lot can give me some constructive critisism

if i got the canon printer could i connect the camera strait to the printer or would i need a computer inbetween, i am planning to upload all of my pics to the computer anyway but i was just wondering
leon
 
someone on here mentioned the FUJI FINEPIX S5600 how does this compare to the nikon coolpix s4 ?
leon
 
glad your happy with your new camera, i am going to have a look at a few shops tommorow but i can decide between the nikon coolpix s4 or the FUJI FINEPIX S5600, i like the compact size of the nikon but i like the look of the fuji
can you help me decide

I have a fuji s9500 (the 5600's big brother) and it is great!

What I love about them both is the huge zoom range, the macro facility and the feel of a slr
 
It is just down to personal preferance I guess - I have a number of cameras but the fuji is my 'best'


I used this site - http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/ when I was deciding on what to purchase - it was a great help!

Unfortunatly the nikon you are looking at does not appear but there appear to be similar models (probably one is the previous model....?) and the fuji one is the older model but the reviews are pretty helpful I found

Now I am no expert but can explain why I decided on the fuji if you like - it may give you another view!

The best tip I can give from my 'choosing experience' is - read every review you can find then once you have narroew down your choice go out to as many shops as you can find and 'play' with them all (multiple times if poss - it is intimadating in a store at best of times and if you look at the same model in 3 stores for 20 mins thats a full hour in total! ;) )
 
thanks for the link i will have a look at it now
please tell why you cose the fuji
