may promo ang canon for a60. with free printer na. P15k lang ata. i'm not sure though kung hanggang kelan yung promo. last week ko pa kasi nakita sa sm city.

kaso 2.0 megapixels lang eh... someone's offering me a pentax optios s for 17k, 3.0 megapixels. good buy ba?
yep. the one on the left. so what if it's 2 megapixels. ur commander wont be using it to print large portraits, will she? a 2mp digicam can print very good quality 4R pics. pati nga 5x7 prints kayang-kaya eh. no degradation whatsoever ng pic quality. so kung day to day use lang a powershot a60 will meet her needs i think.
anyway the pentax optio s offer u've got is quite tempting. but u wont have a free printer.
oo nga eh... another factor i'm taking into consideration is the terms of payment. the optio s is strictly on a cash basis, while i'm assuming na pwedeng installment terms for the a60 (e.g. citibank paylite) kaya torn talaga ako... hmmmm decisions, decisions!
pareng ssaloon. If you have 20k to burn on a digicam, and are a casual photographer and prioritize mobility and small size... da best na yung Pentax Optio S na 4MP version. May nakita ako sa classified ads section natin. Or better yet, get a Casio Exilim Z4. Exact same features but the casio has a BIG 2.0 inch LCD screen.
I was supposed to get this kaya lang my priorities suddenly changed and instead, i got an Olympus C-50 Zoom 5Megapixel. You should see my printouts pare! talagang photo quality especially if you use good photopaper.
And if ever you choose any digicam other than the above, make sure it has optical zoom. thank me later.
OT:if ever your'e gonna drop by Robinsons, bring the lasalle scanal vcd and give me a holler.... my whole department is waiting for this hehehe
May compex dito Miko! 2F nung new wing. text mo lang ako. Kung pang regalo, oks na yung Casio Exilim S2 or S3. Better yet M2 or M3 models (can take movies w/ sound). She'll be impressed with its thinness and size.
pissword, theyre pretty sturdy enough. metal casing kasi. 3.2MP, hindi ako solb when it comes to 8x11 prints.
YAHOOO! at least di kasing hirap pumarada jan sa galle vs. megamall! baka dumaan ako jan sa monday, abot ko narin sayo yung "regalo" ko sa dept nyo :evillaugh
tapos samahan mo na rin ako tumingin ng digicams jan sa compex ;)
Canon makes great digicams, pero ung main complaint ko is medyo bulky ung digicams nila..e kung casual use lang e most likely tatamarin kang dalhin un coz of its size...sayang lang B)
one word of caution though: a friend of mine bought an M3, mga 1 month plus e sira na ung battery...after getting it replaced(uner warranty), ok na naman sya up to now
