Hello everyone,
I am looking to buy a camcorder for my mother who is a complete novice when it comes to photography. She would appreciate something easy to use and yet have a decent image display. I was thinking something along the flip models but not having used any of those and also unsure about their image quality (im certain they are easy to use though!), I am hesitant. I would greatly appreciate if any of you have any suggestions. Unfortunately, I have only 24hrs to decide so time is a constraint. Would truly appreciate your suggestions.
Now I am hoping to get some help for myself - I am an aspiring photographer (only a shade or two better than my mother but slowly, steadily I hope to climb the ladder .
I need suggestions for 3 cameras
1 - something that is ultra portable...something that can be easily slipped into the pocket (size is definitely an issue here) but takes relatively decent pictures nevertheless. Basically, a super small camera that had the features of a semi-pro (guess I am asking too much).
2 - I am hoping to buy the Canon G12 soon. Do any of you recommend something else along those lines?
3- A good DSLR recommendation for an amateur?
Many many thanks for all your help!
