Need suggestion for High Optical Zoom Digital camera

[sujoyp]

@rockstar ...even my Nikon D3100 had this freezing problem but later it got solved by changing the free memory card with sandisk ultra 8GB ....when I checked the net about the free memory card of verbitem came along I was shocked to see that it was too bad performer soo the image could not be saved on memory card that quickly and low light images and video was even more horrible...and camera used to freeze every 10-15 pics

The verbitem 4 gb card came with my DSLR had was a class 4 with max speed of 5MBPS and I replaced it with Sandisk 8 GB class 4 Ultra with speed upto 15MBps...now no freezing

In my case it was a memory card problem...u donno how irritated I was when I found that my 30k DSLR freezed every 20 pics but after changing memory card never faced that issue...but remember to get a faster one like class 10 or sandisk ultra/extreme series

just a marketing hype of dual IS...dual IS means optical and digital ....optical may be of sensor shift or on lens...and digital does not do anything its a gimmik

Rocky,
Check this one, highly possible that you will like it. But it's little pricy, using timtara coupon you will get it under 14k.

hmmm thanks

Optical Image Stabilizer (IS) technology suppresses blur when taking stills and minimises image shake when shooting video footage. Canon's lens-shift type IS allows photographers to shoot at shutter speeds up to 3 stops slower with no perceptible increase in image blur.


so high optical zoom with "Optical Image Stabilizer" is good. right?

wow thanks.. 30x optical zoom.. .

 

[sujoyp]

yes actually without good optical stabilisation u will not be able to get sharp pics at full zoom...its a big issue eveyone faces when using camera...at high zoom its very difficult to keep cam stable.

thanks.

what about optical stabilisation in (full zoom) video?

what happens when you zoom while video recording ? Does the sound stop while zooming.

 

[sujoyp]

no generally the sound does not stop but the zooming sound is recorded ...I think aroraanant can help u in this

1. i want more optical Zoom, dont need more Megapixel.

2. i want HD video recording with stereo sound and full use of the optical zoom, i dont need high quality image.

3. Lighter, Cheaper,thinner


oh thanks. i will try to strech my budget to 20k

let me check this camera.. 36x zoom

what is the best Image stabilization ?
Sensor-shift (Nikon Coolpix P500 ) VS Optical (Canon PowerShot SX30 IS)

 

[sujoyp]

cant say about stabilization coz sony & pentax have sensor shift stabilization in there DSLRs and nikon & canon have stabilized lenses or optical stabilization..

maybe optical stabilization is better but nikon P500's result is good that means its stabilization is working good

Rocky,
Good to see you are now looking for a bridge camera.

You can very well rule out SX30, instead check HX100V. It's much better than almost all the features except wide/telephoto angle, plus cheaper than SX30. It was selling at an offer rate of under 19k few months back. Check latest price, you may get a better deal.

And two other models worth considering are FZ40 and P500. Already P500 is in your list add this FZ40 too.
