which camera?

2 posts
  1. I am down to a shortlist of three cameras, and would appreciate some input on the final decision.

    Powershot G2 Coolpix 5000 3040Z

    I have decided on an Ikelite housing.

     

    1. Need to have excellent Macro capability;

     

    2. Good AF in low light;

     

    3. Good WA with no distortion;

     

    4. Minimum shutter lag;

     

    5. Immediate Playback facility.

     

    Am keeping the needs as short as possible to get a few responses.

    Would appreciate also opinions on DS125 or YS90DX strobes.

     

     

    Thanks in advance,

  2. Coolpix 500 has the biggest image size of those 3. Also has 19mm WC-E68 lens and hotshoe for strobe connection w/ TTL. Other two cameras will have to use slave flashes w/ the Ike housing.

     

    Firmware v 1.7 improves shutter lag so that it is the fastest of the bunch.
