My 8 year old HP Photosmart is beginning to play up a little. The zoom is not working properly and other niggling little faults. Maybe it needs a good clean, but really now need to upgrade a bit. At the time I bought it this was a good camera at 3.2 mp but this has now gone through the roof. I am no photographer but like taking photos of what I see. I have no perspective for framing a shot, or eye for taking a photo.
Basically my needs for this camera.
Probably up to 10 mp
Zoom up to maybe 6 x
Need a fairly good Macro as I like taking close ups of flowers
Minimum 2.5" LCD screen as will have to get used to using a camera without a
viewfinder.
Face detection - maybe
Anti blur or image stablisation - dunno
Cost up to £250 quid.
Its a minefield out there looking at cameras and recommendations, so can you camera buffs help me out with pointers as to make, pros and cons
Thanks Props
