Canon LEGRIA FS306 Camcorder - Red (37x Optical Zoom, 2.7 Inch Widescreen LCD) Peace at Last
Having been the very happy owners of a bulky JVC mini tape recorder for the past eight years, it was a very sad day when we realised that it had done it's last bit of filming and left us for the great camcorder home in the sky! I'd planned on upgrading to a dvd disc type machine, but they are apparently obselete now according to all the tekkies out there. So, my plan scuppered, the challenge commenced. About October 2009 I started looking for a replacement. Let's just say the market has moved on. I've spent months trawling through reviews watching on Amazon for the reviews to click up, visiting the various local electrical stores (do your research on line - it's far more accurate than in store!!!!). Well I missed the winter recital, the very last family nativity, and the spring recital and I was adamant that not another event would go by unfilmed. I hesitated so long as I was desperate not to make a mistake, the market is huge, and there are far too many to choose from. In the end I took the plunge. I settled on the FS306 and didnt wait for it's successor which came out the following day! I don't need HD, i've not got the computer or tv technology to support it, and the quality of the FS306 is brilliant without it. I knew I didn't want a built in memory as our holidays are always inclimate and activity based and may affect the laser quality. It came out on top for lots of reasons, but mainly because of where I want to film, generally too many rows back with dim light or on skis. It has so far lived up to my expectations, i've filmed an indoor party and it's clear, with lovely sound, the picture is steady and bright and the quality is great. The controls were easy to use, it was dead simple to set up and even the kids can use it. It fits in the palm of my hand, it's neat, compact and would fit in a coat pocket - perfect for mountain terrain! I charged it on the 31st March, and yep, it's still got plenty of charge left in it. It probably does loads of quirky things too, but for me, point and shoot will do nicely thank you. I just want memories for my family. Overall verdict - go for it!

Canon Powershot A1100 Great Price

There are many reasons the Canon Powershot A1100 reviews I've read thus far gives the camera top marks. The fact of the matter is, the camera really is a well-made one with features that are easily comparable to that of more expensive units. This makes it one of the most efficient and feature-loaded cameras to carry around.

 

 
Most of the Canon Powershot A1100 reviews written talk about the camera's good features and explain how these work. One of the most outstanding features is its 12-megapixel resolution. For a unit of this price, this is not too shabby a feature to have. The unit also comes with an LCD, which is handy for easy viewing, as well as an optical viewfinder, which is not usually found on other models of the same price range.

One other feature that I think is worth noting -- and which I think will serve beginners and intermediate users well -- is its menu which comes with 10 shooting options. This is an excellent feature because no matter what the level of your photography skill, you can choose the option that is best for your skillset. On top of letting you take still photos, this feature also allows you to shoot short movies, too. Its point and shoot technology is top of the line, and will serve beginners well. You don't have to worry about the pictures you will take; the camera's auto-face-detect features and automatic scene recognition ensures you take the perfect photo each time, all the time.

 

 
If you want to take good photos but do not have the money for a higher-end model, get the Canon Powershot A1100. The unit itself is compact, well-built, and easy to grip while its photo quality impresses. You won't be sorry you chose this unit. It will give you the best value for your money.
